[Verse 1]
   Dm                     Am        Dm
I feel your ghost, smell you all over my clothes
                 Gm                               Dm  Am
Oh, all your smoke's stuck in me longer than you did
   Dm              Am       Dm
I had my doubts, I had to check it all out
             Gm
And now I see that you've run back
                        Dm
When I thought you'd quit

[Pre-chorus]
C                               Gm
You took my air out of your lungs
    C
So you could breathe with another one

[Chorus]
             Bb
Oh, tell me, why her not me?
F           C              Gm
What did I do for you to wreck it all?
               Dm      Csus4
Oh, Lord, it's not my fault
Bb
Why her, not me?
F            C                  Gm
Why did you have to build the walls so high?
             Dm         C
Oh no, I'm not done climbing

[Verse 2]
     Dm                 Am               Dm
She heard about me, and all your history
  Am                 Gm                     Dm
I'm not tryna burn myself but I can let it go
Dm           Am             Dm
Piece by piece uncovering dishonesty
   Am          Gm                          Dm
Never been truth in anything I've ever known

[Pre-chorus]
C                            Gm
Finding out I'm not the only one
C
Took the air right out my lungs

[Chorus]
             Bb
Oh, tell me, why her not me?
F           C              Gm
What did I do for you to wreck it all?
               Dm      Csus4
Oh, Lord, it's not my fault
Bb
Why her, not me?
F            C                  Gm
Why did you have to build the walls so high?
             Dm         C
Oh no, I'm not done climbing

[Post-chorus]
Bb       F     Dm
Tell me, why her?
           C                Bb
You gave her unconditional love
          F    Dm
Tell me, why her?
      C          Bb
But I'm still climbing
     Bb    F  Dm
Tell me, why her?
         C               Bb
You gave me conditional love
          F    Dm
Tell me, why her?
    C            Dm
I won't stop fighting

[Instrumental]
Dm  Bb  C

[Bridge]
Dm
No, no, no
     Bm     Bb
I won't lay low, low, low
     C        Dm
You gave my soul, soul, soul
           Bm   Bb  C
I'm not giving in, no

Dm
No, no, no
     Bm     Bb
I won't lay low, low, low
     C        Dm
I've done no wrong, wrong, wrong
           Bm     Gm
I'm not giving in, no

[Chorus]
Bb
Why her not me?
F           C              Gm
What did I do for you to wreck it all?
               Dm      Csus4
Oh, Lord, it's not my fault
Bb
Why her, not me?
F            C                  Gm
Why did you have to build the walls so high?
             Dm         C
Oh no, I'm not done climbing

[Post-chorus]
Bb       F     Dm
Tell me, why her?
           C                Bb
You gave her unconditional love
          F    Dm
Tell me, why her?
      C          Bb
But I'm still climbing
     Bb    F  Dm
Tell me, why her?
         C               Bb
You gave me conditional love
          F    Dm
Tell me, why her?
    C            Dm
I won't stop fighting
