Verse :

F                            C

Here you are now, calling me up

                        G

But I don't know what to say

                        Am

I've been picking up the pieces

      G            F

Of the mess you made

                            C

People like you always want back

                      G

The love they pushed aside

When you say goodbye

Pre-Chorus :

F

(Stay!) hey
