^D It's been so long I ^Eshould just move on ^AThere's other ^E/G#fish in the ^F#msea ^D But I keep hoping that E A--C#m--D--E-D-C#m- x2 you'll swim back home to me

^A We'd sneak out and go ^Dswimming late at ^Enight ^A You're one of few who can ^Dsay they've seen me ^Ecry ^F#m You got my quirkiness and ^Dawkward sense of humor ^A We shared Simpson quote and s^Etarted made up rumors ^A If night turned into day you'd ^Dhide me from your ^Emom ^AI could never fight with you cause ^Dyou were never ^Ewrong ^F#m This time especially the ^Dblame is all on me ^A If I'd not screwed things up I ^Ewonder where we'd be
