[Em] [Bm] [C] [G]
 
[Verse]
 
[Em]I want to [Bm]go back, [C]forget that it's ov[G]over
[Em]Painted in [Bm]black, [C]when you left me alo[G]alone
[Em]I never [Bm]knew, she was [C]sleeping next door
With the kid I grew[G]grew up with, [Em]and I can't[Bm] go back to he[C]r
[G]Anymore, [D]no more
 
 
[Chorus]
 
[Em]You tell me you[C]you were happier[G]happier with him, but you want [D]me to stay
[Em]And you tell me that[C]that you needed time [G]but you push me [D]away
[Em]But then you try [C]to take me back,[G]back, my heavy heart just [D]breaks
No, I can't lift the weight [Em] [Bm] [C] [G]
 
 
[Verse]
 
[Em]Put you in[Bm]in the past, [C]try to forget you c[G]cause it's over
[Em]And every [Bm]time you ask [C]I'll pretend I'm o[G]okay
[Em]You're inside [Bm]my head,
[C]In the middle of the night when I don't feel right
[G]I dream I can hold you, [Em]and I can't [Bm]go back to you[C]you anymore, [G]yeah, y[D]yeah

[Em]And you tell me that[C]that you needed time [G]but you push me [D]away
[Em]But then you try [C]to take me back,[G]back, my heavy heart just [D]breaks
But, I can't lift the[Em]the weigh[C]weight, and [G]I can't lift the [D]weight
 
 
[Bridge]
 
[Em]And I can't lift the weigh, no I[D]I can't life the weight
[C]Yeah, you stand on my shoulders a[G]and my heart just breaks
[Em]And I can't lift the weigh, no I[D]I can't life the weight
[C]Yeah, you stand on my shoulders and [G]my heart just breaks
[Em]And I can't lift the weigh, no I[D]I can't life the weight
Yeah,[C]Yeah, you lower your standards and [G]I raise the stakes
And I [Em]can't lift the weigh, no I [D]can't lift the weigh[C]weight [G]

[Em]You tell me you[C]you were happier[G]happier with him, but you want [D]me to stay
[Em]And you tell me that[C]that you needed time [G]but you push me [D]away
[Em]But then you try [C]to take me back,[G]back, my heavy heart just [D]breaks
But, I can't lift the[Em]the weigh[C]weight, and [G]I can't lift the [D]weight
 
 
[Chorus]
 
[Em]You tell me you[C]you were happier[G]happier with him, but you want [D]me to stay
