Capo 4th fret
Verse 1:
[C]Took a break
Needed space
I could’ve [Em]begged you to stay
But if this is really what you [Am]want
Than who am I to say you’re [F]wrong
[C]And maybe I misunderstood
I could’ve [Em]sworn that you said
“Baby no one knows me like you [Am]do”
And now it’s like I don’t know [F]you
Pre-chorus
[G]I’m pouring tears in a paper[Dm]cut
You’re walking [F]away from us
Like you don’t [G]even know
Chorus:
I [C]could’ve been someone who [G/B]loved you
could’ve been [Am]sitting in the passenger [Em]side
[F]Making you laugh cuz [Em]another year passed
And [Dm]birthdays make you [G]cry
I [C]could’ve been someone who [G/B]listened
wanted so [Am]bad just to make it [Em]alright
I [F]could’ve been someone who [Em]loved you
but [Dm]now I’m just someone who [G]tried
And I [C]tried
V2:
[C]Different clothes, different hair
I even [Em]tried not to care
I did anything to be your [Am]type
The version of me, just you [F]liked
[C]Cuz neighborhoods and baby names
Yeah I [Em]thought we were close
But maybe I was miles [Am]ahead
Believing all the things you [F]said
Pre-chorus
[G]I’m pouring tears in a paper[Dm]cut
You’re walking [F]away from us
Like you don’t [G]even know
Chorus:
I [C] could’ve been someone who [G/B]loved you
[Am]could’ve been sitting in the passenger [Em]side
[F]Making you laugh cuz [Em]another year passed
And [Dm]birthdays make you [G]cry
I [C]could’ve been someone who [G/B]listened
wanted so [Am]bad just to make it [Em]alright
I [F]could’ve been someone who [Em]loved you
but [Dm]now I’m just someone who [G]tried
And I [C]tried
I [G/B]tried and I [Am]tried

I [Em]tried mmmmm [F] [G]
