Intro:
[C] [F] [Am] [F]
Verse 1:
[C]She went to church, she was from the 'burbs
When she [F]passed, all the heads turned
[Am]I'm from New York, rode a skateboard and camped [F]out on a corner
[C]She and I didn't see eye to eye on [F]politics and such [Am]
But when I tell you, oh, none of that mattered
When we [F]got together, it was love
Pre-Chorus:
[Am]I saw her at her worst, still, I desired her
[F]I learned to read her eyes and know when she would lie
[C]I watched her start to hate me 'til she could no longer [G]take me, oh-oh-oh
Chorus:
She [F]locked the door, but she left the key under the [C]mat
Oh, and I've [Am]known this for a while, but I am [G]still too afraid to [F]act
Oh, and it's coming off the hinges, from the wall, it has de[C]detached
Oh, and I've [Am]known this for a while, but I am [G]still too afraid to [F]act
Verse 2:
[C]We moved into a shoebox out of [F]school and it felt like a honeymoon
[Am]She'd go to work while I made my songs
For a [F]moment there, it was just us two
Pre-Chorus:
[Am]I saw her at her worst, still, I desired her
[F]I learned to read her eyes and know when she would lie
[C]I watched her start to hate me 'til she could no longer [G]take me, oh-oh-oh
Chorus:
She [F]locked the door, but she left the key under the [C]mat
Oh, and I've [Am]known this for a while, but I am [G]still too afraid to [F]act
Oh, and it's coming off the hinges, from the wall, it has de[C]detached
Oh, and I've [Am]known this for a while, but I am [G]still too afraid to [F]act

That she'll never be [F]mi[A7]iii[Bb]ne a[Bb]gain in this [Gm]lifetime[C]
[Dm]I was doing [D]fine until it hit me on a [Gm]random day in Ju[C7]July

Chorus:
She locked the door,[Bb]door, but she left the key under the[C]the mat
