There was a time when life [Ab] seemed better
[Eb] The sky seemed [Cm] bluer, the sun [Eb] seemed redder
My skin felt newer, [Ab] my lips felt wetter
[Bb] Manhattan could freeze, but no need [Eb] for a sweater
_ [Ab] _ Because [Eb] I had _ someone, [Bbm] he was [Fm] perfect, I had someone, my [Ab] loneliness was gone
[Bb] I had someone [Bbm] who held up my world, [Gm] yet [Ab] carried me [Bb] close
And someone, [Bb] _
John, [Eb] was nice _ _
[Bb] _ _ [Cm] _ _ [Eb] _ [Cm] Until that skank from his [Bb] office begins to toot up [A] me
[G] Celebrating, yeah, like she [B] was better
So [Cm] without any [G] notice, no lunch, not a phone call, no [F] email, not [Eb] even a letter
[B] He was no [Fm] longer mine
_ [Bb] _ _ [Cm] So for you, that no good boy with your stupid, tally-based [F] ass
Allow me to give you a [Gm] next lesson
[C] _
Ever [Cm] dump a crazy girl [Eb] from New York
[Abm] With a [Ebm] text message _
_ _ [Eb] _ You know, I [Bb] thought you, LOL, [Ab] ah well, [Eb] could have [Bb] been worse
[Ab] _ [Bb] It was hard to believe, _ [Ab] _ _ but I still have that [Eb] message
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ I hate, I hate [F] how much you talk when we're together _
Stuff with a friggin' dude
You think I'm not my life, Laura, now Laura's a skank
And stop calling her a skank, well she [Bb] is, we've only dated six weeks [F] and a half
And the whole time I've just wanted to shout that we're over _
But we're over, _ [Eb] and he ends it with, Seacrest out
_ [C] _ No, _
[Eb] no, _ _ [Cm] I'll show [Bb] him I'm not a _ [C] mess
How can I respond to him _ in a hundred [Gm]
characters [Db] or less?
_ _ [Ebm] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Sorry _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Eb] _ _
Dear, DB, [Bb] DB [F] stands for douchebag
But you're a bad people, [Bb] some [Eb] balls
Cause in the walls of my mind, [Ab] in the halls of my mind
[Eb] There is no room for you at all
So do your thing, I [C] won't stop you
Cause I know that a _ [Bb] sensation
[Eb] When [Bb] I, S-U-P-Y-F-A-C-Y-Y-L-O-A-Y-S-I-L-D
I'm sorry, [Bb] translation
_ [Eb] Sex up your best friend so he tells you you lost out
And you sink into [Gm] lonely [Fm] depression
_ [C] _ _
_ _ _ [Eb] That's him, [Ebm] translation
_ _ [Bb] _ [Ab] Size matters
[Ebm] _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ [N] _ _
