C                          C/B               Am                             
No you never were one for resting easy were ya
      F                 C               G                              
So much that when they told me how you left us here behind
           C        C/B         Am                  
That I didn't even bat an eye believing
    F                   C                G                            
In words I should have said to make you stay but couldn't find
        F                     G                  C                                
I just hoped that road would one day watch you walk 
      G       F
right back to me
F              G -  F                 
Till then I'll be
F                C      
Jet black and jealous


C                        C/B                    Am                           
And I'll dare not let em know that now you're gone
     F                C            G                                         
How I'll still be a fool for the way we used to be
   C                      C/B             Am                   
I just keep laughin' out loud and play along
   F             C              G                 
As if I traded you for one the way you traded me 
                F                    G                              
Cause with your beat up bag and your laced up shoes 
        C        G       F
You walked right out the door
F                G   -   F     
And I hit the floor 
F             C         
Jet black and jealous


Chorus:

        C            F    -    C  -   G               
Tell me how was I to know
        C             F    -    C   -   G              
Tell me how can I let go
       F                  G                     
Well I know wherever you are tonight
     C        G        F          
You look just like a queen
F             G    -   F        
Stealing the scene
F                 C      
Jet black and jealous


C                        C/B                Am                      
And I bet by now you're rolling through Pittsburgh
             F                   C                   
Watching the rain in passing headlights 
            G          
From some roadside corner booth
         C             C/B              Am                       
Still smiling bout the choices that you made
           F                   C          
Hoping the clouds are breaking up ahead
      G 
Skies blue instead of grey
           F                     G
But if you get out there and you find
              C        G          F
That it's not what you thought it be 
F         G   -   F         
Remember me
F             C
Jet black and jealous


Repeat Chorus


            F                     G
Yeah if you get out there and you find
              C        G            F                G     -    F
That it's not what you thought it'd be, come back to me

       C          F    -  C   -   G
Tell me how
        C            F    -  C   -   G
Tell me how was I to know
        C              F    -     C   -     G                     
Tell me how was I to know
