[Verse 1]
CEm
Don't wanna be the bottle that keeps a ship from sea,
FCG
don't wanna be a cage that keeps a bird from being free.
CEm
Don't wanna keep a singer from a melody,
FCG
yeah, baby, that was you and me.
[Chorus]
FGCC
I wish I was heartless and kept you as mine,
FGCC
I wish it were my hands that held you at night.
FGAmC/EF
But all of the love that you wanted for us you found it in someone new,
FGCC
so, I'm not happy, but I'm happy for you.
[Verse 2]
CEm
Just look at that smile, it's one I've never seen,
FCG
you laugh a lot more than you did with me, ee, ee.
CEm
Half of me knows were not a perfect match, half me let you go, half me wants you back,
FCG
oh, I feel so stupid, sitting here losing you when ...
[Chorus]
FGCC
I could'vе been heartless and kept you as minе,
FGCC
I wish it were my hands that held you at night.
FGAmC/EF
But all of the love that you wanted for us you found it in someone new,
FGAm
but I'm not happy, but I'm happy for you.
[Bridge]
GCEmF
Moving on, finding somebody else, maybe I'll find somebody else too.
GC (C)
Baby, I only want the best for you.
[End-Chorus]
FGCC
I wish I was heartless and kept you as mine,
FGCC
I wish it were my hands that held you at night.
FGAmC/EF
But all of the love that you wanted for us you found it in someone new,
FGCC
so, I'm not happy, but I'm happy for you.
FGC
No, I'm not happy, but I'm happy for you.
