Start Jamming...
It's my truth [Cm] and [D] I've come to terms with it and it's okay.
[Ab] So basically I [Gb] fell in [B] love with my best friend's ex,
[C] which is one of those lines you [E]
don't cross.
Now they hadn't been together for a year and a half and she was over [C] him and that was all fine,
but it's just one of those weird things.
It was my [D] drummer.
I ended up marrying him.
We had two children together.
But it was a really tough time for me [C] and my best friend because this is my person.
My [C] crystal.
She is my person.
And it was [Bb] devastating for both of us because we didn't quite know how to manage it.
We were both [Eb] young and I was probably a lot younger than her, even more immature and stupid.
So I didn't handle it [Ab] very well and it took us a few years to get back on track,
but now we're again 30 years strong.
We are the best of friends.
[B] I was at all her births.
She was at mine.
[F] And we overcame it.
And I think that's the beauty of a great friendship.
It's that despite all the shit you can go through,
if you can go [E] through it and figure out a way through and build bridges and reconnect
and [C] remember that there is so much love there.
[Ab] That's important and it's important [E] to hold on to those really great relationships.
So [Am] we managed to do that.
Anyway, basically that's kind of what the song is about.
The aftermath [N] of the beginning of all that and my heartbreak around it
and knowing that she had obviously a ton of heartbreak around it as well.
So there you go.
Another long-winded story.
[Gb] The economy of words.
I'm not very good at that.
[E] Thank you and thank you for [N]
everything.
[B] Thank you for not believing in me.

[Eb] Will I search myself and [Ab] everyone?

[Fm] There's no one left [Bb] to thank.
[Eb] There's no one here to [Ab] blame.
There's no one left to talk to.
