E A E A
 
 
[Verse]

E                      
Haven't heard from you  
     A
in a couple of months
        E              
But I'm out right now, 
        A
and I'm all freaked up
           E                 
And you're callin' my phone,
        A
 you're all alone
    E                A
And I'm sensin' some undertone
    E                   
And I'm right here with 
A
all my friends
           E         
But you're sendin' me 
     A
your new address
      E              
And I know we're done, 
  A
I know we're through
     E                   A
But, God, when I look at you
 
 
[Refrain]
                E D
My brain goes, "Ah"
              C#m      
Can't hear my thoughts 
          C
(I cannot hear my thoughts)
                    E     
Like blah-blah-blah-blah 
                D
(Blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah)
 
Should probably
C#m
I should probably, 

probably not

[Pre-Chorus]

E                 A   
Seein' you tonight, 
       E         A
It's a bad idea, right?
E                 A   
Seein' you tonight, 
       E         A
It's a bad idea, right?
E                 A   
Seein' you tonight, 
       E         A
It's a bad idea, right?
E                 A
Seein' you tonight
E
 Freak it, it's fine
 
 
[Chorus]

E                A
Yes, I know that he's my ex
    E                A
But can't two people reconnect?
  E            A
I only see him as a friend
     E             A
(The biggest lie I ever said)
    E                A
Oh, yes, I know that he's my ex
    E                A
But can't two people reconnect?
  E            A
I only see him as a friend
        E           
(I just tripped and 
       A
fell into his bed)
 
 
[Verse]

        E                   
Now I'm gettin' in the car, 
         A
wreckin' all my plans
                N.C.
I know I should stop
      A
But I can't
      E              
And I told my friends 
  A
I was asleep
      E                 
But I never said where, 
A
in his sheets
      E                 
And I pull to your place 
       A
on the second floor
           E         
And you're standin', 
        A
smiling at the door
        E                   A
And I'm sure I've seen much hotter men
      E              A
But I really can't remember when
 
 
[Refrain]
                E D
My brain goes, "Ah"
              C#m      
Can't hear my thoughts 
          C
(I cannot hear my thoughts)
                    E     
Like blah-blah-blah-blah 
                 D
(Blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah)
 
Should probably
C#m
I should probably, 

probably not

Seein' you tonight

Seein' you tonight
