Chords
# I figured out all of these chords just by watching Molly Lewis' YouTube video
#for this song, so some of the chords may be off. When I couldn't find the right
#chord, I used something else that sounded similar.
# Molly Lewis uses some chords formations that are different from the standard ones,
#so I'll put those below:
(Going G string, C string, E string, A string)
Cm = 5333 (barre chord)
G# = 5343 (barre chord)
Baug = 4332
Fm = 5543 (barre chord)
F = 5553 (barre chord)
Intro: D# A# Cm G# D# Baug G# Fm G# (If you listen to the song, Molly switches back to G# momentarily.)
D# A#
When I met you, I thought you were really smart
Cm G#
And even more so when we started going out
D# Baug
It was your intellect that really won my heart
G# Fm G#
There was just so much stuff you knew so much about
D# A#
I was hungry for knowledge, and I was single
Cm G#
I didn't want to date and really hadn't planned to
D# Baug (Pause)
But you were cool and you were smart and you were multilingual
G# Fm G#
And I felt like I could really understand you
Cm G#
But then, it went downhill
D# G#
and we'll never get back to our better days
Cm G#
I'm done, I've had my thrill
D# A# G#
and I think we ought to go our separate ways
Fm D# A# Cm
But it isn't you, it's me
G# D# A# Cm G#
I guess we just weren't meant to be
D# Baug
I thought we were inseparable, I thought you were my friend
Cm F G# Fm
But looking back now, it all makes sense at the end
D# A#
You're sometimes vague, and you're often inconsistent
Cm G#
You've no opinions, you never take a stance
D# Baug
You're so dispassionate, you always sound so distant
G# Fm G#
And I tell you, you know zilch about romance
D# A#
And not once did you ever say you love me
Cm G#
You sent no flowers, you NEVER called me "honey"
D# Baug
And you always talked as if you were above me
G# Fm G#
And it felt like you were always needing money
Cm G#
Sometimes you generalize,
D# G#
And on better days your tone is condescending
Cm G#
And when we talk books or films
D# G#
You ALWAYS find a way spoil the ending
Fm D# A# Cm
But it isn't you, it's me
G# D# A# Cm G#
I need someone more scholarly
D# Baug
I thought you had the answers, but your smarts are all pretend
Cm F G# Fm
And my attraction only makes sense at the end
D# A# Cm
You just believe everything you're ever told
D# G B#m Cm
You never question, I'm pretty sure you don't fact check
D# F (Play this like a normal F)
When someone puts ideas into your head
G# Fm
You never blink, you immediately buy it
D# Cm G F Fm
I won't say that you have no integrity... but I might imply it
D# A# Cm G# D# Baug G# Fm G#
D# A#
It turns out you're not the guy I thought I knew
Cm G#
and I think we need to stop and take a breather
D# Baug
I never know if what you're saying's really true
G# Fm G#
and frankly, sometimes, I don't think you know either
D# A#
You have no real facts, your knowledge is all hearsay
Cm G#
And I'm tired of playing all your stupid games
D# Baug
You don't keep pictures of me, and you don't know my birthday
G# Fm G#
I don't think that you even know my name
Cm G#
You keep tabs on other girls
D# G#
But I notice there's no article for me
Cm G#
You're known by all the world
D# A# G#
So I guess I'm just a droplet in the sea
Fm D# A# Cm
But it isn't you, it's me
G# D# A# Cm G#
I owe you no apology
D# Baug
I know not to judge my company just based upon its looks
Cm G# F
I'm too grown-up for your articles, it's time that I read books
