G 
Pull goodbye back in my mouth, put the rain back in the clouds 
                            D 
Burn the thought of leaving town in the ashtray 
G                                                              C 
Tie the flowers back on the vine, paint the light back in your eyes 
                       D 
Tell your daddy he was right and Im sorry 
 

 
     C                   G                   D 
Some nights, I drink too much, I think about us 
                  Em            D         C 
I scheme up and I dream up some alternate ending 
                     G                        D 
Where were still in love and its messing me up 
                        Em           D          C 
And I dont know if Im good or just good at pretending 
 

 
                       G                                       D 
Fade the real into the fiction, swear the heart dont know the difference 
                     Em             D 
Gave it to you and I didnt want it back, babe 
C                         G                                   D 
Thought about you on your birthday, heard you laughing in the hallway 
                        Em  D 
It gets better, so they all say 
 

 
     C                   G                   D 
Some nights, I drink too much, I think about us

I scheme up and I dream up some alternate ending 
                     G                        D 
Where were still in love and its messing me up 
                        Em           D          C 
And I dont know if Im good or just good at pretending

Some nights, I lay awake and I try to fake

Being happy that youre happy now 
     C                G                      D
