Tough Love

  Am                           G 
I took a train to Boston and I wanted to cry 
     F                        G 
He's gone, I'm 24 and it's a Saturday night 
  Am                             G 
I ran and took his jacket with a rip in the side 
   F                      G 
I hate when we fight, it sucks when we fight 
    Am                           G 
But honestly whatever, he's just one of the boys 
     F                               G 
I'll date for like a summer and I'll leave when I'm bored 
     Am                               G 
This train is full of strangers but I might like 'em more 
       F 
Said I might like 'em more 
          G 
Yeah, no, I like 'em more 


           Am         F 
And that's just tough love 
      G 
But I mean it, really mean it 
Am      F               G 
I'm not charmed so I'm leaving 


  C                              F 
I laughed the second he tried to call my bluff 
  Am                      F 
I guess it's always funny until it's not 
        C                F 
When I left him there to feel it 
         Am                 F 
Couldn't guess what I'd be leavin' for 
   C                                F 
No chance I'll waste my twenties on random men 
    Am                          F 
Not one of them is cooler than all my friends 
      C                 F 
And I hate to leave him bleedin' 
      Am                  F 
But I know, know what I'm leavin' for 


     Am                         G 
I'm walkin' by the river and I stopped by the boats 
   F                                   G 
At night it's kind of tempting just to see if you'd float 
    Am                             G 
The benches by the Charles gave me somewhere to go 
  F                             G 
I feel like I'm home, there's a bar down the road 
    Am                          G 
I'm wasted with the sister of a boy that I met 
        F                                G 
Through someone back in college, she's a weird intellect 
    Am                                  G 
She liked to tell the truth and she was harsh but direct 
    F                        G 
Her boyfriends all left, she had that effect 


           Am         F 
And that's just tough love 
           G 
And you're lucky to receive it, right? 
Am    F          G 
He'll crumble to pieces 


  C                              F 
I laughed the second he tried to call my bluff 
  Am                      F 
I guess it's always funny until it's not 
        C                F 
When I left him there in pieces 
         Am                 F 
Couldn't guess what I'd be leavin' for 
          C                                F 
No chance I'll waste my twenties on random men 
    Am                           F 
Not one of them is smarter than all my friends 
      C                 F 
And I hate to leave him bleedin' 
      Am                  F 
But I know, know what I'm leavin' for 


C   F 
   Oooo 
      Am                  F 
Oh, I know, know what I'm leaving for 
C    F 
  Mmmm 
      Am                  F 
Oh, I know, know what I'm leavin' 


Dm                   Am 
   No, I'm not gonna miss the way 
      F             G 
He'd kick me in my bed while sleepin' 
Dm                   Am 
   And I'm not gonna miss his 
       F                     G 
Shitty friends and nights of their binge drinking 
Dm                   Am 
   And I'm not gonna miss his 
     F             G 
Old inflated ego, shallow thinking 
Dm                   Am 
   And I'm not gonna miss denying 
 F             G 
That I got my own damn reasons 


  C                              F 
I laughed the second he tried to call my bluff 
  Am                      F

        C                F

   C                                F 
No chance I'll waste my twenties on random men 
    Am                           F 
Not one of them is tougher than all my friends 
      C                 F 
And I hate to leave him bleedin' 
      Am                     F 
But I know, know what I'm leavin' for
