Verse:
G              Em7                  Bm
All around the room your things are placed

And next to you he fills the space
G          Em7               Bm
 And so it seems your saving grace is only saving face
    G               Em7           Bm
The pictures of the two of you on holiday, on honeymoon
    G                   Em7
You thought that he was wanting you,
    Bm                         A7sus4 G/B Csus2 G/F# G     Em7     Bm
But he was only wanting you to let    him off   the  hook
G   Em7   Bm

G           Em7       Bm
He was your imaginary friend, you were partners til the end
G               Em7                Bm 
 Then something bends, and then it breaks, your worst mistake
          G          Em7             Bm
Accepting enemies on bended knees; a litany of tragedies,
       G                      Em7             Bm
You're vexed, it seems you're hexed and after sex he expects
               A7sus4 G/B Csus2 G/F#
You'll let him off    the hook  til

G         Em7      Dsus4                Csus2
Something that you heard while you were sleeping left you
G      Em7      Dsus4             Csus2
Shaken while he stirred. When you awaken you will
G        Em7     A7sus4 G/B   Csus2 G/F#
Make him eat his words  right off   the

G    Em7 Bm    G  Em7 Bm
Hook and line, every  time

Verse:
    G           Em7                 Bm
The credit card receipts, the dirty sheets, souvenirs of men who cheat
G             Em7                 Bm
 It all makes sense - with each offense, you wanted to believe him
G            Em7              Bm                 Csus2
He could get away with murder one, and you would clean the smoking gun, 
G          Em7                       Bm
With every crime, you bought each line, but not this time, you'll make him
A7sus4 G/B Csus2 G/F#
Eat    his words cause

Make him eat his, make   him eat   his
G           Em7   Dsus4                 Csus2
