verse 1: 

        Eb                         Ab    
        Last Friday night I wasn't me 
                      Cm              Ab 
        I was a still life trapped in eternity 
                  Eb                  Ab                 Bb 
        I was the focal point; out of focus, out of ink 

            Eb                  Ab                  Cm             Ab 
        And I've been wandering nightly through the garden of your heartache 
               Eb                    Ab                     Bb  
        Always making a mess, always stumbling out the door 


Pre-Chorus 1: 
        Ab  (strum once, let ring) 
           But I don't wanna be an asshole anymore

        Eb         Bb        Cm                  Ab 
        Whoooaa---oohhhh     Baby, maybe I'll be good to you 
        Eb         Bb        Cm                  Ab        
        Whoooaa---oohhhh     I don't wanna be an asshole anymore 
        Eb         Bb        Cm                  Ab 
        Whoooaa---oohhhh     Baby, maybe I'll be good to you  
        Eb Ab G F                                Eb Ab G F    
                Baby, maybe I'll be good to youuuu 


verse 2: 
                Eb                  Ab    
        Another night, I devour the sun 
               Cm                        Ab 
        Plunge myself into the depths of oblivion  
             Eb                              Ab               Bb 
        Yeah somewhere along the way I found wine  feels damn good just to bleed sometimes 

                   Eb                        Ab (staccato)   Cm           Ab 
        All I ever wanted was to make things right  Years of idleness and spite 

                  Eb             Ab                            Bb  
        I push my emotions off a bridge, I've been taking them hostage with a shotgun 


Pre-Chorus 2: 
                Ab  (let ring) 
        Now I'm somewhere treading water,  
                  Ab                               Ab (PM'd) 
        Somewhere lost inside the man that I'm not 
        silence (rest) 
        But I don't wanna be an asshole anymore 

         

Chorus 2: (might be another chord in there for the whoa-ooh parts) 

        Eb         Bb        Cm                  Ab 
        Whoooaa---oohhhh     Baby, maybe I'll be good to you 
        Eb         Bb        Cm                  Ab        
        Whoooaa---oohhhh     I don't wanna be an asshole anymore 
        Eb         Bb        Cm                  Ab           
        Whoooaa---oohhhh     Baby, maybe I'll be good to you, I'll be good to you, I'll be good, I'll be  
                                 Ab  G  F  Eb 
        good, I'll be gooooodddd

I won't lie no more about where I've been and

I won't pry no more over the people that you're hanging with 

Cm              Eb           Ab   G      F 
You're the only lover that I ever missed and have been hopelessly in love with
