G
I hear you’ve been telling all your friends that you’re done with me 
         Em                                C
Like you always knew things wouldn’t work out. And I’ve been
G
hearing things from people that I don’t want to talk to, 
        Em                                C
Like it matters who you’re sleeping with now. 

        G
Can I erase from my mind anything that you said or 
    Em                              C
any time that we spent with each other?
G
I don’t want to waste away another cell on a memory 
            Em                          C
When you’re just another meaningless lover. 


[Chorus]

   G
Forget the nights that we spent laughing 
          C
Until the morning on your bedroom floor 
    Em                                                C
Without a thought about your roommate asleep down the hall. 
G                                  C
  Forget the days we’d waste in bed, tangled, 
                              Em
The smoke still on your breath, 
Em                                    C
  Undressed and pinning you up to the wall. 


[Verse 2]

      G                                    Em            C
And I swore I heard you talking when I was tossing in my sleep. 
          G                                Em       C
You were always trying to walk in circles around me. 
I was out one night when I saw you and you froze me where I stood. 
I would hate you, I would hate you if I could. 


[Chorus]

   G
Forget the nights that we spent laughing 
          C
Until the morning on your bedroom floor 
    Em                                                C
Without a thought about your roommate asleep down the hall. 
G                                  C
  Forget the days we’d waste in bed, tangled, 
                              Em
The smoke still on your breath, 
Em                                    C
  Undressed and pinning you up to the wall. 


[Outro]
C    Am G
C    G Am 

C                   
  I would hate you 
Am            G
  but I’m not finished yet. 
C                   
  I would hate you 
G             Am
  but I’m not finished yet.

C                      Am       G              C
  Even you, up on that pedestal, the time will come when you 
          G                   Am
will deconstruct yourself and remake what you are. 
C                       Am         G
  When it does you’ll remember me 
        C
and the words I spoke 
           G            Am                    C             
And wonder how you ever could have strayed so far.

                     Am       G              C
Even you, up on that pedestal, the time will come when you 
          G                   Am
will deconstruct yourself and remake what you are. 
C                       Am         G
  When it does you’ll remember me 
        C
and the words I spoke 
           G            Am                    C             
And wonder how you ever could have strayed so far.
