      G  Em  D 



    G                       Em         D 
You said at the party that I was too drunk 
  G                          Em         D 
I told you I liked you, you said "Sober up" 
    C 
But why would I lie? 
          C                      G  Em  D 
It's so clear, I'm in love with you 
  G                         Em           D 
A tensed conversation, you like someone else 
  G                          Em        D 
I said "If I waited, could that maybe help?" 
    C                           C                       G  Em  D 
You told me that patience won't change how you felt for me 



        C                             C 
So I'll stop being pretentious, and loathing our friendship 
    Em                        Em 
You taught me a lesson, that love isn't precious 
     Am                       Am                    D   Em 
It's not like the novels, no Pride and Prejudice at all

   G                         Em              D 
We ate at a restaurant, the host said we're cute 
      G                         Em               D 
They think we're a couple, they bought us some booze 
   C                       C                          G  Em  D 
We shared the Moscato and laughed 'cause it's true to me 

        G                     Em           D 
Oh, and I'd be embarrassed if I weren't so pleased 
     G                        Em         D 
That everyone else sees what you never see 
      C                       C                G  Em  D 
We're perfect together, but I'll never be the one 



        C                             C 
So I'll stop being pretentious, and loathing our friendship 
    Em                         Em 
You taught me a lesson, that feelings are reckless 
     Am                         Am                    D  Em 
It's just like the novels, side characters end up alone
