[Intro]

G       D  
Asus4
 
[Verse]

G                   
 Tears on your face,
D
 climb back into your eyes
Asus4
 A little less on your nerves, 

and a little more on your mind
G                        
 Make up before we fight,
D
 dream before we sleep
Asus4
 Slowly getting better 

than we've ever been
 
[Pre-Chorus]

G                      D
 Things we should have never said
    Asus4
Just crawl right back into our heads
G         D
 Hear you say to me
Asus4                  N.C.
 "Leave don't please"
 
[Chorus]

G               D/F#
I wish we could break up in reverse
      Asus4
Every night would get better 

instead of getting worse
    G                
I'd watch you slowly 
     D/F#
slip back into my hands
        Asus4
Say goodbye to me in the beginning
 
[Post-Chorus]
                   Bm    A/C#   D
And love me in the end
                   Em
And love me in the end
 
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
 
[Verse]

G                    
 You'd be on your way
 D
  back from Massachusetts
Asus4
 Bet it breaks the hearts of stars 

when we use ‘em as excuses
    G                    
And wish upon a stranger, 
     D
even though we know it's useless
       Asus4
'Cause all I want's the night back 

when your best friend introduced us
 
[Chorus]

G               D/F#
I wish we could break up in reverse
      Asus4
Every night would get better 

instead of getting worse
    G                     D/F#
I'd watch you slowly slip back into my hands
        Asus4
Say goodbye to me in the beginning
 
[Post-Chorus]

                   Bm   A/C#   D
And love me in the end
                   Em   D   Em
And love me in the end
 
[Bridge]

G                      D/F#
 Things we should have never said
    A            A
Just crawl right back 

into our heads
G*     D/F#*
 I can hear you scream
A             A
 "Leave don't please"
 
[Chorus]

G               D/F#
I wish we could break up in reverse
         Asus4
Wouldn't have to remember 

all the ways that it hurts
    G                
I'd watch you slowly 
      D/F#
slip back into my hands
        Asus4
Say goodbye to me in the beginning
 
[Post-Chorus]

                   G    D/F#
And love me in the end 
                   Asus4
And love me in the end
                   G   D/F#
And love me in the end
                   Asus4
And love me in the end
