Capo: 3rd fret

[Verse 1]
G
I kinda got the warning when I saw my dad in your eyes
B
Uncomfortable without your handy dandy herbal disguise
C
And when I kiss you, I taste your blues
Cm
Why won’t you hold me? I’ll hold you too
G
I lived so long with someone so uncomfortable in their mind
B
They fed them-self a little poison every day to survive
C
And that’s not like you, at least I thought
Cm
That night I told you, I tried to talk but
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Am                          D
It didn’t come out how I wanted
Am                            D
wish I could’ve just been honest
 
[Chorus]
  C                          G
This is why I broke up with you
                                   B
Do you realise you’re too high to care
                                     C
And I’m saying this with nothing to lose
                                       Cm
’cause I know that you’re not really there
                            G                                  B
I only get you half of the time, your eyes are glossed over again
                                           C
I only like you when you’re in your right mind
                               Cm
And babe that’s only now and then
                             G   B   C   Cm
This is why I broke up with you… (you)…
 
[Verse 2]
G
And honestly it’s only weed, it isn’t even that bad
B
But every word is like an echo of a memory I had
C
Your empty promises, the stop and go
Cm
The way we played pretend was kind of gross
 
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Am                                D
Ya know the truth is weighing heavy
Am                                   D
Because I’ve been through this already
 
[Chorus]
  C                          G                                      B
This is why I broke up with you, Do you realise you’re too high to care
                                     C
And I’m saying this with nothing to lose
                                       Cm
’cause I know that you’re not really there
                            G                                  B
I only get you half of the time, your eyes are glossed over again
                                           C
I only like you when you’re in your right mind
                               Cm
And babe that’s only now and then
                             G   B   C   Cm     G    B    C    Cm
This is why I broke up with you, you, you  you, you, you, you, you
                             G   B   C    Cm
This is why I broke up with you, you, you, you
                            G
This is why I broke up with you
              I kinda got the warning when I saw my dad in your eyes 
Uncomfortable without all you handy dandy herbal disguise 
And when I kiss you, I taste your blues 
Why won't you hold me? I'll hold you too 
I lived so long with someone so uncomfortable in their mind 
They fed themselves a little poison every day to survive 
And that's not like you, at least I thought 
That night I told you, I tried to talk but 

[Pre-Chorus] 
It didn't come out how I wanted (It didn't come out how I wanted) 
I wish I could've just been honest 

[Chorus] 
This is why I broke up with you 
Do you realize you're too high to care? 
And I'm saying this with nothing to lose 
Cause I know that you're not really there 
I only get you half of the time 
Your eyes are glossed over again 
I only like you when you're in your right mind 
And babe that's only now and then 
This is why I broke up with you, you, you 
You, you, you 

[Bridge] 
And honestly it's only weed it isn't even that bad
But every word is like an echo of a memory I had 
Your empty promises, the stop and go 
The way we played pretend was kind of gross 

[Pre-Chorus] 
You know the truth is weighing heavy 
(You know the truth is weighing heavy) 
Because I've been through this already 

[Chorus] 
This is why I broke up with you 
Do you realize you're too high to care? 
And I'm saying this with nothing to lose 
Cause I know that you're not really there

I only get you half of the time 
Your eyes are glossed over again 
I only like you when you're in your right mind 
And babe that's only now and then 
This is why I broke up with you, you, you 
You, you, you 
You, you, you 
You, you, you 

[Outro] 
This is why I broke up with you, you, you 
You, you, you 
This is why I broke up with you
