E                B
  I'm trying to sleep
                    C#m
But this pain in my chest

It's keeping me awake

And every breath I take
                   E
Feels like it's my last
             Abm
I want to be fine
             C#m
I want to be sure
               A
I want to be a lot of things

And none of them include you

B                  A
  I keep telling myself

I'm not miserable
B                  A
  I keep telling myself

I'm better off without you

E                     B
  I believed that you meant
               C#m
everything you said
            A
Goodbye and thanks for the memories
E                  B
  For the pain and lies
                    C#m
Every time I had to cry
            A
Goodbye and thanks for the memories

E               B/D#
  I don't understand
                        Abm
Because it doesn't make sense

The way you broke it off

Took away my heart
                 E
Took away all my friends
             F#m
I want to go out
                    E
And get out of this house

But to begin again is gonna take more

than I think I'd ever have to give

E                  B
  I believe that I was
              C#m
so cleverly deceived
                    A
By good looks, some charm

and a brilliant lie
E                        B
  All the time that was spent
                         C#m
being used I should have said
            A
Goodbye and thanks for the memories

C#m              B
  I want to know why

you're such an idiot
A                B
  I want to know how you

can even live with it
C#m                  B
  I want to know why I
                   A
should even give a damn
                  B
About you missing me so terribly

E                  B
  I'm starting to sleep a
              C#m
little easier now

Now that I'm over this
         A
And I've made up my mind to

never fall in love again
E                   B
  With someone like you
              C#m
someone so confused

I just wish I would have realized
       A
that a long, long time before I had...

E                     B/D#
  I believed that you meant
               C#m
everything you said
            A
Goodbye and thanks for the memories
