[Db] [Ab]
Oh period, black [Db] comedy's such [Eb] a joke [Ab] I played on me
I let you go and now I [Db] know a [Eb] world of [Ab] uncertainty
[Db] Now [Eb] I think about [Ab] the days
[Db] [Eb] when I let you [Ab] down in so many ways
[Db] [Eb] That's the time [Ab] I want to cry [B] and the time I [Bbm] wonder why I [Eb] pray
[Ab] My apathy is tragedy [Db] I'm [Eb] content [Ab] to stay inside
This emptiness is killing [Db] me I can [Eb] run [Ab] but I can't hide
[Db] [Eb] And you loved me [Ab] all along
[Db] [Eb] when I always [Ab] did you wrong
[Db] [Eb] That's the time I [Ab] can't forget [B] and it fills me [Bb] with regret, [Bbm] [Eb] always
[Ab] When
[Db] [Eb] [Ab]
[Db] [Eb] [Ab]
[Db] you think [Eb] that you have won [Db] then your [Eb] heartbreak's just [Db] begun
[Ab] Oh period, black comedy [Db] loves [Eb] a clown [Ab] and I'm far away
I think of you much more than [Db] I'd ever [Eb] be willing [Ab] to say
[Db] [Eb] Now I don't [Ab] want to pretend I [Db] [Eb] was glad to [Ab] see us ending this way
[Db] [Eb] That's the time I [Ab] want to cry [B] and the time I [Bbm] wonder why [Eb] I pray
[Ab] Oh period, I'm looking [Db] for [Eb] someone who [Ab] is just [B] like you
[Bbm] To help [Eb] end this blue [Ab] period
[Eb] [Ab]
