[Verse 1]
               G                  C
So you fell in love and it wasn't with me
           G                            C
Hey that's fine, it's about time I let go
             G                  C
But whatever curse you put here in me
             G                           C
Well can you lift it babe before I hit the road?

[Chorus]
           A                C             G
You were a charmer, I was a heartbreak junky
           A                 C               G
You were a diamond, I was the heap of fool's gold
             A                    C             G
You were the jet plane, I was the parachute failing
          A             C                  G
I was the cheap ad when you were the centerfold

[Verse 2]
                G           C     Cm
Then my sun set hard on Carolina
          G                              C     Cm
Where she howled about the Pender county line
                   G                                    C     Cm
And her six-string fingers ran the length of some boy's body
           G                                  C     Cm
In younger dreams I thought that body might be mine

[Chorus]
           A                   C             G
You were a cold crush, I was a heartbreak junky
             A                C         G
Now you're a mother and I'm a flashback son
           A                     C                 G
Yeah I'm a wasteland, you've got all your milk and honey
         A                C                G
And back then I swore you were the only one

[Bridge]
   D
So disenchant me baby, I've been dying to know how to give up, get out, stay gone
                  C
Make me not wanna go back to the girl that I had before, she was so sweet baby so sweet
      D
Maybe I can reconcile what I ripped in two
                                                    C
That haphazard, half-hearted love I was making with you
                     Cm
Yeah, I made it with you.

[Verse 3]
                     G                   C
But now the bars are closed and the city sleeps tight
     G                               C
As I ramble home my wretched merry way
      G                                C
Where down was up and feeling bad felt so right.
  G                                C
I thought that vertigo was here to stay

[Chorus]
              A                    C               G
We're talking hellfire, but at the time, it seemed funny
           A                C             G
When all the demons left the woodwork to play
        A           C             G
With an angel and a heartbreak junky
           A                C             G
Stuck in their rock bottom masquerade

[Bridge]
   D
So disconnect me baby, I've been dying to know how to give up, get out, stay gone
                  C
Make me not wanna go back to the girl that I had before, she was so sweet baby, so sweet
        D
Maybe I can reconcile what I ripped in two
                                                    C
That haphazard, half-hearted love I was making with you
                     Cm
Yeah, I made it with you.

[Outro]
        C                            G       F
So when Eden burns behind you in the rearview
           C                           G    F
and you're off to find a stranger paradise
              C
Where you can sing your own way out
          G         D          C
Well, you know that I'll be around
       D                            C   Cm
with a sweet-talk woman fading slowly
Cm            G
on a lovesick mind
