(Verse 1)
I check my phone, (D) it says you aren't at home (G)
So I study your steps (Bm) like my whole life's depend-(A)-ent on it
Usually, on Tues-(D)-days, you're in bed by (G) 8
I feel my heart (Bm) race
My (Bm)gut says you're go-(A)-ing to her place
(Bm) You're at (D) her (G) place
(Chorus)
(D) I know how this'll (G)go
Yeah, it'll all be on (Bm)me
You'll call me inse-(A)cure
Say you've never met a woman more (D)crazy
Look (D)down and point your (G)finger
Say "We'll talk about this (Bm)later"
Like you're doing me some (A)favor
Yeah, you're the promise (Em)breaker
Master manip-(G)ulator
But you'll call me the (D)traitor / / / (G) / / / (Bm) / / / (A) /
(Verse 2)
She's just a friend (D) and I don't have to wor-(G)-ry
'Cause she's not your type (Bm) and you don't think she's pret-(A)-ty
Well, that's kinda mean to (D)say
For someone you go out your (G)way for
Throw a (G)party that you (Bm)paid for
I'd put (Bm)money that's there (A)way more
But (G)I won't ask, (Bm) why (A/C#) would (D) I ask? (G) - - -
(Chorus)
(D) 'Cause I know how this'll (G)go
(G)Yeah, it'll all be on (Bm)me
You'll (Bm)call me inse-(A)cure
Say you've (A)never met a woman more (D)crazy
Look (D)down and point your (G)finger
Say "We'll talk about this (Bm)later"
Like you're (Bm)doing me some (A)favor
Yeah, (A)you're the promise (Em)breaker
Mast-(D)er manipul-(G)ator
But you'll call me the (D)traitor (G)
(Post-Chorus)
Yeah, I'll be the (Bm)traitor (A)
(Bridge)
'Cause you've got (D)twisting and turning down to an art
(G)Always playing that good guy card
If (Bm)roles reversed, you'd fall apart
You'd (A)call me a liar, probably (D)set my house on fire
(G)God, I'm just tired
(Bm)All that I wanted was an (A)ounce of honesty
It ain't that (D)hard to answer back
To just (G)tell me where you're at
And not (Bm)spend so much of your damn time with a (A)girl that isn't me - - -
(Chorus)
(D) I know how this'll (G)go
Yeah, (G)it'll all be on (Bm)me
You'll (Bm)call me inse-(A)cure
Say you've (A)never met a woman more (D)crazy
Look (D)down and point your (G)finger
Say "We'll (G)talk about this (Bm)later"
Like you're (Bm)doing me some (A)favor
Yeah, (A)you're the promise (Em)breaker
Master ma-(D/F#)nipu-(G)lator
(NC) But I'll be the traitor - - - - -
