Intro
[G] [C] [Em] [C]
(Is it? Is it? Is it? Is it? Is it?)
Verse 1
[G]Once the flight had flown [C](Uh-huh)
With the wilt of the rose [Em](Uh-huh)
I slept all alone [C](Uh-huh)
You still wouldn't go
Pre-chorus
[G]Let's fast forward to three hundred takeout coffees later
[C]I see your profile and your smile on unsuspecting waiters
[Em]You dream of my mouth before it called you a lying traitor
[C]You search in every
maiden's bed for somethin' greater, baby
Chorus
[G]Was it over when she laid down on your couch?
[C]Was it over when he unbuttoned my blouse?
[Em]"Come here, " I whispered in your ear
In your dream as you passеd out, baby
[C]Was it over then? And is it over now? [G]
[G] [C] [Em] [C]
Verse 2
[G]Whеn you lost control [C](Uh-huh)
Red blood, white snow [Em](Uh-huh)
Blue dress on a boat [C](Uh-huh)
Your new girl is my clone
Bridge
And did you [G]think I didn't see you?
There were flashin' lights
At least I had the decency
To keep my nights out of [C]sight
Only rumors 'bout my hips and thighs
And my whispered sighs
Oh, Lord, I think about [Em]jumpin'
Off of very tall somethings
Just to see you come [C]runnin'
And say the one thing I've been wanting, but [G]no
Pre-chorus
[G]Let's fast forward to three
hundred awkward blind dates later (Oh)
[C]If she's got blue eyes, I will surmise
that you'll probably date her (Oh, no)
[Em]You dream of my mouth before it
called you a lying traitor (Oh)
[C]You search in every model's bed for somethin' greater, baby
Chorus
[G]Was it over when she laid down on your couch?
[C]Was it over when he unbuttoned my blouse?
[Em]"Come here, " I whispered in your ear
In your dream as you passеd out, baby
[C]Was it over then? And is it over now? [G]
Post-chorus
[G]Uh- [Em]huh
(Is it? Is it?)
[G]Uh-huh
Bridge
[G]Think I didn't see you?
There were flashin' lights
At least I had the decency
To keep my nights out of [C]sight
Only rumors 'bout my hips and thighs
And my whispered sighs
Oh, Lord, I think about [Em]jumpin'
Off of very tall somethings
Just to see you come [C]runnin'
And say the one thing I've been wanting, but [G]no
Outro
Flashin' lights
Oh, Lord [C](Oh)
Let's fast forward to three
hundred takeout coffees later [Em](Oh)
(Flashin' lights)
I was hoping you'd be there
And say the [C]one thing (Oh, Lord)
I've been wanting (Oh, Lord)
But [G]no
