Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[B][G#m][B]
[Em][B][Em][B][Em]

[Verse 1]
I too, [Em]used
to want him to be proud of me
And then I just wanted him to make amends
I wonder what lies he's
telling you about me
To make sure that we'll never be friends
And it's a shame,
because you and I didn't get a witness
We're the only ones who [Bm]know[Em]
We were cursed,
the moment that he kissed us
From then on, it was his big show
I grew concerned,
[D]when I saw [Em]him start to covet [B]you
[Em]When I learned what he did,
I felt close to [D]you
[Em]In my own way,[D] I fell [Em]in love with you
But he's made me a ghost to you
I watch him let go of your hand,
I wanna stand between you
[Bm]But it's n[Em]ot what I'm
supposed to do
[D]I watch him walk over[Am], talk over you,
[D]be mean to you
[Em]And it makes me feel close to you
It makes me feel close to [Bb]you[Em]
It [B]makes me [Em]feel close to you
It's [B]not what [G#m]it's supp[Em]osed to do
It makes me feel close to [D]you[Em]
I too, wanted to make him proud of me
And [D]then [Em]I just wanted him to
[D]make [Em]amends
I wonder what lies he's
telling you about me
To make sure that we'll never be friends
[B]And it's a s[Em]hame,
because [D]you and [Em]I didn't get a witness
[Am]We'r[G#]e the only ones [Em]who know
We were cursed,
the moment [Bb]that he kissed [Em]us[C]
From then [Em]on, it was his big s[B]how[Em]
From then [D]on, [Em]it was his big show
From then on, it was his [B]big [Em]show
And you're wearing time,
like a [Am]flowery [D]crown[Cdim][Em]
Sitting [D]that, sitting that [Em]big cat down
And I'm [D]alone on the sum
[D#dim]mit now[Adim][Am][Em]
Trying not to [D]let [F#m]my lig[B]ht [Em]go out
[Bm]I too, used to[B] want him
[Em]to be proud of me
And [B]then I just [Em]wanted [B]him to [Em]make amends
I wonder what lies he's telling
[Bbaug]you about[Em] me
To make sure that we'll never be friends
And [Bm]it's a shame,
because [D]you and [Bm]I didn't get[Em] a witness
We're the only [Bm]ones who [D]know
[Em]We were cursed,
[Bm]the moment[Em] that he kissed us
From then on, it was his big show
[Bb]I gr[Em]ew co[C#]ncern[Em]ed,
when I saw him start to covet you
When I learned what he did,
I felt close to you
In [C#]my own wa[D]y, I f[C#m]ell in[C#] love wi[Em]th you
But he's [G]made [C#]me a[G] gho[Em]st to you
[D]I watch him [Em]let go of your hand,
[D]I wanna stand bet[Em]ween you
But it's not what I'm supposed to do
[Em]I watch him walk[D] over you,
talk over you, be mean to you
And it makes me feel [Em]close to you
And you're [D]wearing [Em]time,
[D]like a flowery cro[Em]wn
Sitting [D]that, sit[Em]ting [Bm]that [D]big cat [Em]down
And I'm [D]alone on the
summit [Em]now
Trying not to let my light go [D]out
Try[Em]ing not to [G#]let m[Em]y light go out[G]
[Em]You're wearing time,[D]
[Em]like[D] a flowery[Em] crown[D][Em]
Sit[D]ting that, sitting that big
[Em]cat [B]down[Em][F#m]
[Em]And I'm alone on the sum[Bm]
mit [D]now[Em]
Trying not [D]to let [Em]my light go out
Oh, I too, used to want him
to be proud of me
And then I just wanted him to make amends
I wonder what lies he's
told [Em]you a[D]bout me
To make sure that we'll never be [Em]friends
To make sure that we'll never [D#m]be friends
To make sure that we'll never be friends

[Outro 1]
To make sure that we'll never be friends
