Capo: 4th fret
[Intro]
Am F C G
You broke me first
[Verse 1]
Am
Maybe you don't like talking too much
F
about yourself
C
But you shoulda told me
G
That you were thinking 'bout someone else
Am
You're drunk at a party
F
Or maybe it's just that your car broke down
C
Your phone's been off for a couple of months
G
So you're calling me now
[Pre-Chorus]
Am F
I know you, you're like this
C
When shit don't go your way you needed
G
me to fix it
Am F
And like me, I did
C G
But I ran out of every reason
[Chorus]
Am F
Now suddenly you're asking for it back
C G
Could you tell me, where'd you get the nerve?
Am F
Yeah, you could say you miss all that we had
C G
But I don't really care how bad it hurts
Am F
When you broke me first
C G
You broke me first
[Verse 2]
Am F
Took a while, was in denial when I first heard
C
That you moved on quicker than I could've ever
G
You know that hurt
Am
Swear, for a while I would stare at my phone
F
Just to see your name
C
But now that it's there, I don't really
G
know what to say
[Pre-Chorus]
Am F
I know you, you're like this
C
When shit don't go your way you needed
G
me to fix it
Am F
And like me, I did
C G
But I ran out of every reason
[Chorus]
Am F
Now suddenly you're asking for it back
C G
Could you tell me, where'd you get the nerve?
Am F
Yeah, you could say you miss all that we had
C G
But I don't really care how bad it hurts
Am F
When you broke me first
C G
You broke me first
[Bridge]
Am F
What did you think would happen?
C G
What did you think would happen?
Am F
I'll never let you have it
C G
What did you think would happen?
[Chorus]
Am F
Now suddenly you're asking for it back
C G
Could you tell me, where'd you get the nerve?
Am F
Yeah, you could say you miss all that we had
C G
But I don't really care how bad it hurts
Am F
When you broke me first
C G
You broke me first (You broke me first)
Am
You broke me first, ooh oh
You broke me first, ah
Maybe you don't like talking too much about yourself
But you shoulda told me that you were thinking 'bout someone else
You're drunk at a party or maybe it's just that your car broke down
Your phone's been off for a couple months, so you're calling me now
I know you, you're like this
When shit don't go your way you needed me to fix it
And like me, I did
But I ran out of every reason
Now suddenly you're asking for it back
Could you tell me, where'd you get the nerve?
Yeah, you could say you miss all that we had
But I don't really care how bad it hurts
When you broke me first
You broke me first

What did you think would happen?
I'll never let you have it
