[Intro]
D5
 
 
[Verse 1]
D5
I'm under the assumption that
D5                                  C5
I'm gonna be the one that's leaving you
C5
Tonight
C5
Oh, tonight
D5
Well, I flipped every switch
D5
That I could find on my way out
                  C5
Just to upset you more (just to keep you busy)
                        A5                    D5
Just to make you angry (just because you were right)
D5
Just because you were
 
 
[Chorus]
D5
All tired
D5
Scream, safe haven
D5
Let's get this out and on the table
 
 
[Verse 2]
D5
Fast forward to, say, four o' clock
D5
I'm keeping time
D5
I'm holdin'
D5                    C5
We're always holdin' (always holdin)
                             D5
We're always holdin, holding out
D5
And that's what got us here in the first place
                                  C5
You should have never come here alone
                                                     A5
(You should have never bothered at all), bothered at all
 
 
[Chorus]
D5
Scream older and wiser
D5
Still filled with resentment
A5            C5
We get it, we get it
   G5
(I haven't been happier since)
D5
Older and wiser
      A5
Still filled with resentment
   C5
We get it, we get it
 G5                                                           D5
(I haven't been happier, no, I haven't been happy, no, not since)
 
 
[Verse 3]
D5
Five o' clock the floor caught fire with footsteps (my footsteps)
                                 C5
And spread like a disease to the door
C5
I'm stuttering through it but I hear it
C5
Well, I-I I hear it's good t-t-to stick to what you know
D5
And you know the whole lot of this
D5
It all could have been avoided
C5
When you were court side for this nightmare
C5
Well since then I got myself
         A5
Come and listen
 
 
[Chorus]
D5
Older and wiser
      A5
Still filled with resentment
   C5
We get it, we get it
 G5
(I haven't been happier since)
D5
Older and wiser
      A5
Still filled with resentment
   C5
We get it, we get it
 G5                          D5                                A5  C5  G5
(I haven't been happier, no, I haven't been happier, not since)
 
 
[Outro]
D5                           A5
Well, we used to get so much more
 A5
(I used to, I used to too)
C5                      G5
It used to take so much more
 G5
(I used to, I used to, I used to too)

                  I'm under the assumption 
that I'm gonna be the one thats leaving you 
tonight, tonight...
Well I flipped every switch 
that I could find on my way out just to upset you more 
(just to keep you busy) just to make you angry (just because you were right) just because you were...

All tired scream safe haven,
Let's get this out and on the table...

Fast forward to say four o'clock, 
I'm keeping time, I'm holdin', we're always holdin', 
(we're always holdin), we're always holdin, holding out...
And that's what got us here in the first place, 
you should have never come here alone 
(you should have never bothered at all), bothered at all...

Scream older and wiser, still filled with resentment
We get it, we get it...Oh (I haven't been happier since)
Older and wiser, still filled with resentment
We get it, we get it...Oh, Bree Ann (I haven't been happier since, I haven't been happier, not since.)

Well five o'clock the floor caught fire with footsteps (my footsteps)
And spread like a disease to the door 
(I'm stuttering through it but I hear it) I-I-I hear its good t-t-to stick to what you know
And you know a whole lot of this, it all could have been avoided when 
you were courtside for this nightmare, 
Well since then I got myself come and listen...

Older and wiser, still filled with resentment
We get it, we get it...Oh (I haven't been happier since)
Older and wiser, still filled with resentment
We get it, we get it...Oh, Bree Ann (I haven't been happier since)

I haven't been happier since (Bree Ann)
I haven't been happier since (Bree Ann) 
I haven't been happier since (Bree Ann)
I haven't been happier not since...

Well, it used to take so much more (I used to, I used to too) 
It used to take so much more (I used to, I used to too)
I used to, I used to too...
