[Verse 1]
                     Bb                  F
Thursday morning I'm sat in the window seat
                             Bb                  F
Facing the exit cause I'm nervous we're 'bout to meet
                        Bb                        F
And it's raining but I know that's not why you're late
                               Bb                  F
Probably rehearsing all the things that you wanna say


[Verse 2]
                         Bb                  F
I hear the bell and I know it's you at the door
                                 Bb             F
Take a deep breath cause there's no hiding anymore
                             Bb                    F
Pull out the chair and you order your favourite drink
                        Bb              F
Won't go to war 'til I ask how you've been


[Pre-Chorus]
                      Bb
If you think you're faultless
              Gm
This is so hopeless
                    Dm     C
Why can't you just own up
   N.C.
Turn around, say, "Sorry, I've done you wrong"


[Chorus]
  Dm                   C
If it was me, I'd be kinder
       Am               Bb
With my words, I'd be wiser
  Dm                       C
And for my friends, I'd be a fighter
          F              Bb
But you don't play fair, no
     Dm                    C
And if it was me, I'd be honest
       Am                           Bb
Throw my hands up, say I've been thoughtless
Dm                           C
If you live life like it's lawless
     F         Bb
You can't play fair


[Verse 3]
                           F
It's getting heated and I don't feel no good at this
                     Gm                 F
Confrontation is a lesson I seemed to skip
                                Bb                     F
You say you're sorry, but you still wanna argue your point
                          Bb            F
Even the waiter wants us out of this joint


[Pre-Chorus]
                      Bb
If you think you're faultless
              Gm
This is so hopeless
                    Dm     C
Why can't you just own up
   N.C.
Turn around, say, "Sorry, I've done you wrong"



[Chorus]
  Dm                   C
If it was me, I'd be kinder
       Am               Bb
With my words, I'd be wiser
  Dm                       C
And for my friends, I'd be a fighter
          F              Bb
But you don't play fair, no
     Dm                    C
And if it was me, I'd be honest
       Am                           Bb
Throw my hands up, say I've been thoughtless
Dm                           C
If you live life like it's lawless
     F         Bb
You can't play fair



[Bridge]
Bb                    F
Now you got me like (Oh)
           Dm                   C
If it was you, looking through me
                F
Would you be (Woah)
              Dm      C
Seeking the same apology?
           C     F
Like (Oh, woah, oh)
           Bb                  C              F
If it was you, looking through me (Oh, woah, oh)
               N.C.
Would I turn around say, "Sorry, I've done you wrong"?


[Chorus]
 F
If it was me, I'd be kinder

With my words, I'd be wiser
 Dm                           Bb
And for my friends, I'd be a fighter
                    Bb
But you don't play fair
 Dm                    C
If it was me, I'd be honest
           F                          Bb
Throw my hands up, say, "I've been thoughtless"
             Dm             C
If you live life like it's lawless
  F             Bb
You can't play fair, no, no and
Dm                     C
If it was me, I'd be kinder
      F                 Bb
With my words, I'd be wiser
  Dm                          C
And for my friends, I'd be a fighter
     F                Bb
But you don't play fair, no, oh (But you don't play fair)


[Outro]
     Dm          C          F          Bb
And if it was me, yeah, and if it was me (And if it was me, I would be honest)
      Dm                          C
You know for my friends I'd be a fighter
    N.C.
But you don't play fair
