Introduction:

                     C                 G 
Call your girlfriend
                             C                   Em 
It's time you had the talk
                     C         G 
Give your reasons
                   C             Em 
Say it's not her fault
         Am             G                         Am 
But you just met somebody new
                                         G                                           Am                                             C 
Tell her not to get upset, second-guessing everything you said and done
                                               G                                           C                                         Am 
And then when she gets upset tell her how you never meant to hurt no one
                                                       G                       Am                                   G 
Then you tell her that the only way her heart will mend is when she learns
       Am 
to love again
                 G                                         Am                                               C 
And it won't make sense right now but you're still her friend
                           C 
And then you let her down easy
                     C                 G 
Call your girlfriend
                             C                   Em 
It's time you had the talk
                     C         G 
Give your reasons
                   C             Em 
Say it's not her fault
         Am             G                           Am 
But you just met somebody new
                                                   G                                                     Am 
Don't you tell her how I give you something that you never even knew you
 C 
missed
                                               G                                     C                               Am 
Don't you even try and explain how it's so different when we kiss
                                             G                       Am                                   G 
You tell her that the only way her heart will mend is when she learns to
 Am 
love again
                 G                                         Am                                               C 
And it won't make sense right now but you're still her friend
                           C 
And then you let her down easy
                     C                 G 
Call your girlfriend
                             C                   Em 
It's time you had the talk
                     C         G 
Give your reasons
                   C             Em 
Say it's not her fault
         Am             G                           Am  G 
But you just met somebody new
         Am             G                             Am 
And now it's gonna be me and you
                                                       G                       Am                                   G 
Then you tell her that the only way her heart will mend is when she learns
       Am 
to love again
