Lyrics & chords

[Chorus 1]
[G]
[F]I can't w[Em]rite one s[Dm]ong
that's not [Em]about [F]you
Can't [Em]drink with[Dm]out thinkin' a[Em]bout y[F]ou
Is [Em]it too la[Dm]te to tell y[Em]ou that
[F]Everything means [Em]nothing if I [Dm]can't have you?

[Verse 1]
[F]I'm in Toronto and I got[Em] this view[Am]
But I [Dm]might as well be in a hotel [Em]room, yeah
[F]It doesn't matter 'cause I'm so [Em]consumed[Am]
Spending [Dm]all my nights
reading texts from [Em]you
[F]Oh, I'm good at [Em]keepin' my [Am]distance
I [Dm]know that you're the feelin' I'm [Em]missing
You [F]know that I [Em]hate to ad[Am]mit it
But [F]everything means [Em]nothin'
if I [Dm]can't have you

[Chorus 2]
[F]I can't w[Em]rite one s[Dm]ong
that's not [Em]about [F]you
Can't [Em]drink with[Dm]out thinkin' a[Em]bout y[F]ou
Is [Em]it too la[Dm]te to tell y[Em]ou that
[F]Everything means [Em]nothing
if I [Dm]can't have you?

[Chorus 3]
[F]I can't w[Em]rite one s[Dm]ong
that's not [Em]about [F]you
Can't [Em]drink with[Dm]out thinkin' a[Em]bout y[F]ou
Is [Em]it too la[Dm]te to tell y[Em]ou that
[F]Everything means [Em]nothing
if I [Dm]can't have you?

[Verse 2]
[F]I'm so sorry that my tim[Em]ing's off[Am]
But I [Dm]can't move on if we're still gonna [Em]talk
[F]Is it wrong for me to not[Em] want hal[Am]f?
I want [Dm]all of you, all the strings att[Em]ached
[F]Oh, I'm good at [Em]keepin' my [Am]distance
I [Dm]know that you're the feelin' I'm [Em]missing
You [F]know that I [Em]hate to ad[Am]mit it
But [F]everything means [Em]nothin'
if I [Dm]can't have you

[Chorus 4]
[F]I can't w[Em]rite one s[Dm]ong
that's not [Em]about [F]you
Can't [Em]drink with[Dm]out thinkin' a[Em]bout y[F]ou
Is [Em]it too la[Dm]te to tell y[Em]ou that
[F]Everything means [Em]nothing
if I [Dm]can't have you?

[Chorus 5]
[F]I can't w[Em]rite one s[Dm]ong
that's not [Em]about [F]you
Can't [Em]drink with[Dm]out thinkin' a[Em]bout y[F]ou
Is [Em]it too la[Dm]te to tell y[Em]ou that
[F]Everything means [Em]nothing
if I [Dm]can't have you?

[Verse 3]
[F]I'm trying to move on
[Em]Forget you, [Am]but I hold on
[Dm]Everything means nothing
Everything means [Em]nothing, babe
[F]I'm trying to move on
[Em]Forget you, [Am]but I hold on
[F]everything means [Em]nothin'
if I [Dm]can't have you

[Chorus 6]
I can't write one song
that's not about you
Can't drink without thinkin' about you
Is it too late to tell you that
Everything means nothing

[Chorus 7]
if I can't have you?
[F]I can't w[Em]rite one s[Dm]ong
that's not [Em]about [F]you
Can't [Em]drink with[Dm]out thinkin' a[Em]bout y[F]ou
Is [Em]it too la[Dm]te to tell y[Em]ou that
[F]Everything means [Em]nothing if I [Dm]can't have you?
