[Intro 1]
[G][D][Em][D][Em]
Well, [D]they

[Verse 1]
shot [C]the messen[Em] ger
But the mes[G]sage [D]never was
[C]quite what he intended
An[G]d h[D]e made a m[C]ess o[Em]f her
Felt the in[G]tent [D]was misread,
[C]poorly inges[G]ted
And [D]he's just waiting [C]for
this [Em]whole thing
He's [D]just waiting for this [C]whole thing [G]to [C]fall[D]
[C][G][C]

[Interlude 1]
[D][C][G][C]
[D][C][G][C][D][C]

[Verse 2]
And [G]she's not quite [C]sure
how [D]this all [C]happened
[G]He writes his [C]number on
a [D]paper nap[C]kin
[G]Says, [C]"It's just one date",
[D]trying [C]to save face
[G]Trying to pro[C]be all the thi[D]ngs he lacks[C]
But [D]she's just waiting for
[C]those old[Em] feels
She's just wait[D]ing for those
[C]old feels to fade

[Verse 3]
She says, [G]"O [D]h no,
[C]I can't believe it aga[G]in[C]
I tried 'it' on an[G]d I'm so,
[C]so (oh so) tired [G]of [C]everything[D]
Oh [C]no, I can't believe it [G]again[C]
I tried 'it' on and [G]I'm so,
[D]so (o[C] h so) ti[G]red of[D] ev[C]erything"

[Verse 4]
[G]
Why do I, [C]why do I want to live
on your [G]wall?
And I won't [C]change that dial
'Cause you're my [Em]evening [C]news
Showing me the world's abuse
[Em]An[C]

[Verse 5]
[Em]d[D][C][Em][D][C]
I'm not quite sure how [D]this all [C]happened
I used to feel, now [D]I'm just [C]acting
I made a [D]mistake, you made a [C]complaint
I kept my mouth [D]shut all out of [C]restraint
And [D]now I'm just waiting
[C]for this [Em]whole thing
I'm [D]just waiting for this
[C]whole thing to fade away

[Verse 6]
[G]Oh [D]no,[C] I can't believe it again
[G]I t[C]ried 'it'[G] on and I'm so,
[C]so (oh so) tired [G]of [C]everything[D]
[G]Oh [C]no, I can't believe it again
[G]I t[C]ried 'it' on and I'm so,[G]
[D]so (o[G] h [C]so) tired of ev[G]ery[C]thing"
