Capo: 3rd fret

[Intro]
Am  G  C  Em  F
Am  G  C  Em  F
 
[Verse 1]
Am        G            C                  Em    F
  Took me over to your house to meet your family
 
Introduce me to them, saying that you'd marry me
Am           G              C                Em        F
  Then you'd look me in the eye and say it's just a joke
 
Then you'd kiss me and I'd smile, did you even know?
Am           G              C              Em   F
  When you'd say that kinda thing I'd be excited
 
Got me hoping maybe one day you would mean it
Am       G                C              Em          F
  Always thought I'd only make a fool of someone else
 
Now you've only gone and made me make one of myself
 
Am G C Em F
 
[Chorus]
Am            G                   C             Em       F
  I guess the flowers aren't just used for big apologies
 
I guess I should've been more conscious how you spoke to me
Am                 G                 C                Em       F
  'Cause when we'd fight you give me space and not communicate
 
And for a while I thought that's what I should appreciate
Am      G             C            Em               F
  Maybe I was holding on to what I thought you were
 
But when you think too hard eventually it starts to hurt
Am            G            C               Em           F
  The version of you in my head now I know wasn't true
                                N.C.
Young people fall for the wrong people guess my one was you
 
Am G C Em F
 
[Verse 2]
Am      G           C                  Em            F
  I was getting any flight so we could make it work
 
You'd ignore me, could have told me you were seein' her
Am      G               C          Em             F
  Kinda hate myself for justifying your mistakes
 
Took a minute but I learned that shit the hard way
Am        G              C               Em      F
  Who are you to tell me I can't be heartbroken
 
Babe, you had the chance, the door for you was open
Am        G                C                Em              F
  If it's what you need to tell yourself to sleep at night
 
Pretend I haven't found a man who finally treats me right
 
[Chorus]
Am            G                   C             Em       F
  I guess the flowers aren't just used for big apologies
 
I guess I should've been more conscious how you spoke to me
Am                 G                 C                Em       F
  'Cause when we'd fight you give me space and not communicate
 
And for a while I thought that's what I should appreciate
Am      G             C            Em               F
  Maybe I was holding on to what I thought you were
 
But when you think too hard eventually it starts to hurt
Am            G            C               Em           F
  The version of you in my head now I know wasn't true
 
Young people fall for the wrong people, guess my one was you
 
Am G C Em F
 
[Outro]
Am           G             C                       Em              F
  If there's anything I've learned it's you should watch yourself
N.C.
If it's hurting you then leave and go and get some help
              Took me over to your house to meet your family
Introduce me to them, saying that you'd marry me
Then you'd look me in the eye and say it's just a joke
Then you'd kiss me and I'd smile, did you even know?
When you'd say that kinda thing I'd be excited
Got me hoping maybe one day you would mean it
Always thought I'd only make a fool of someone else
Now you've only gone and made me make one of myself

I guess that flowers aren't just used for big apologies
I guess I should've been more conscious how you spoke to me
'Cause when we'd fight, you'd give me space and not communicate
And for a while I thought that's what I should appreciate
Maybe I was holding onto what I thought you were
But when you think too hard, eventually it starts to hurt
The version of you in my head, now I know wasn't true
Young people fall for the wrong people, guess my one was you

I was getting any flight so we could make it work
You'd ignore me, could have told me you were seeing her
Kinda hate myself for justifying your mistakes
Took a minute but I learned that shit the hard way
Who are you to tell me I can't be heartbroken?
Babe, you had the chance, the door for you was open
If it's what you need to tell yourself to sleep at night
Pretend I haven't found a man who finally treats me right

I guess that flowers aren't just used for big apologies
I guess I should've been more conscious how you spoke to me
'Cause when we'd fight, you'd give me space and not communicate

If there's anything I've learned, it's you should watch yourself
If it's hurting you, then leave and go and get some help
