Intro Cadd9 G Em D x 2

(Verse:)
Cadd9                          G
 Swore I was gonna tell em the truth
              Em                            D
 That was til everybody started asking bout you 
 Cadd9                 G
 And I didn’t know what to say
                   Em        D
 Came up with some lame excuse
 Why you were gone
 Cadd9                        G
 Said you were gonna come later on
 Em                    D
 Painted a smile on my face
 Cadd9               D
 Like everything was okay

 (Chorus:)
 Cadd9                 G
 I was hanging around, rockin' the crowd
 Em                          D
 Everybody singing along to my songs
 Cadd9            G
 Taking my shots, throwing them back
 Em                   D
 Acting like you ain’t gone
         Cadd9                    G 
 But I don’t want em to know I’m all alone
 Em                D
 And I ain’t got nobody
 Cadd9                  G
 I don’t want em to see I'm dying inside
 Em                       D
 So I guess I’ll be the life
 Cadd9           G
 Life of the party
 
 Em D  

 (Verse:)
 And then one of your friends
 Came up and gave me a hug and asked me how we've been
 I smiled and said we're better than we've ever been
 Well I don’t know why
 I had to lie
 Guess I didn’t wanna tell her that you said goodbye
 I couldn’t even look her in the eye
 So I kept on

 (Chorus)

 (Bridge:)
 Cadd9                       G
 Everybody thinkin I’m feelin good
 Cadd9                     G             Em
 Everybody thinkin Im havin a real good time
 D                        Cadd9   G
 Don’t know the truth about you and I

 (Chorus:)
 
 (Out) same as intro
 Life of the party
 Life of the party
 So I guess I'll be the life
 Life of the party

 Swear I was gonna tell em the truth
 But I didn’t know what to say
