[Verse 1]
C         D        Em                           
Hey, I was doing just fine just before I met you
  D        C                              D    EmD
I drank too much and that's an issue but I'm okay
C       D        Em                                
Hey, you tell your friends it was nice to meet them

But I hope I never see them again

[Pre-Chorus]
C                     D    
I know it breaks your heart
 Em                               D     C
Moved to the city in a broke down car and
                D   
Four years, no calls
Em                                   D      
Now you're looking pretty in a hotel bar and
C D         Em D
I  can't stop
    C D         Em D
No, I  can't stop

So baby pull me closer in the backseat of your Rover
         C                 D
That I know you can't afford
          Em                   D 
Bite that tattoo on your shoulder
           C                       D
Pull the sheets right off the corner
        Em                    D
Of the mattress that you stole
           C                  D   
From your roommate back in Boulder
         Em             D  
We ain't ever getting older
