[Verse 1]
C#m Ab/C A Abm
Let me tell you a story about a boy and a girl,
C#m Ab/C A Ab/C
A very different version than you've ever heard.
C#m Ab/C A Abm
Ok so I'm lying but all I'm trying to say,
C#m Ab/C A Ab/C
This isn't about the one that got away.
C#m Ab/C A Abm
Watch it from your ivory tower,
C#m Ab/C A Ab/C
Paint the sky grey, like a coward.
C#m Ab/C A Abm
(How long you got?) I can go for hours.
C#m Ab/C A Ab/C
A sweet little tale that ended sour,
F#m
My words will ring in your ears.
[Chorus 1]
C#m A E B
Take my advice and leave right now. You gotta find a way to sell yourself,
C#m A E B
To someone who cares, to someone desperate.
C#m Ab/C A Abm
C#m Ab/C A Ab/C
[Verse 2]
C#m Ab/C A Abm
First came along my friends were dubious,
C#m Ab/C A Ab/C
She cared for the stage, not who she was with.
C#m Ab/C A Abm
I brushed it off and hit the road,
C#m Ab/C A Ab/C
Only to hear she's in the other's pose.

C#m Ab/C A Abm
It was the end of summer in 2009,
C#m Ab/C A Ab/C
I wasn't really looking but what did I find?
C#m Ab/C A Abm
A golden girl with golden hair,
C#m Ab/C A Ab/C
When I was with her everybody stared.
[Pre-chorus]
A B C#m B A
And I couldn't believe my luck had changed.
E B
And I asked so nice but I wouldn't stay
[Chorus 2]
C#m A E B
Take my advice and leave right now. You gotta find a way to sell yourself,
C#m A E B
To someone who cares, to someone desperate.
C#m A
Beggars can't be choosers, so I wouldn't choose you,
E B C#m
I've got better things to do with my time
A E B C#m
I would bear in mind, what was in this line
[Bridge]
Na na na na na na na na na, na na na na na na na.
Na na na na na na na na na, na na na na na na na.
C#m
She said who do you, she said who do you,
C#m
She said who do you, she said who, do you!?
Who, do you? who do you?
I said who do you, I said who do you.
C#m C#m C#m E
Who do you, who do you, think you are,
C#m C#m C#m F#
Who do you, who do you, think you are,
C#m C#m C#m Abm
Who do you, who do you, think you are,
C#m C#m C#m E
Who do you, who do you, think, you, are!
