[Intro]
Gm Dm Bb (2x)


[Verse 1]
Gm                Dm             Bb
    You said that I should get a clue
Bb
    Well I did, I did, I did, I did
Gm                Dm              Bb
    And it was to rid my heart of you
Bb
    So I did, I did, I did, I did
Gm                   Dm            Bb
    Exactly what you said I should do

    I played the sleuth and I found a clue
Gm                       Dm               Bb
    And I still can't stop thinking about you


[Verse 2]
    That standard procedure
Gm          Dm              Bb
    You know, you know, you know me

    So fuck with my heart at your leisure
Gm                Dm                    Bb
    That's how it goes, it's been going lately
Bb                 Gm                      Dm
    Said I was the best simultaneously the worst
                  Bb
    And best case scenario, I should be cursed
                       Gm  Dm                   Bb
    For the rest of my life, for the rest of my life
                        Gm                    Dm             Bb
    Well, I feel like I am cause I will never have you by my side

[Verse 3]
            Gm           Dm
    So stay warm in that flannel
         Bb
    That I left on your bed
                        Gm                     Dm
    There was no way in hell I could put it on after that
                Bb
    Cause we were both soaking wet
               Gm                   Dm
    And I apologize if from time to time
         Bb
    This makes you think of me
                 Gm                 Dm
    Just imagine seeing that stupid shirt
          Bb
    Every time you fucking breathe
                              Gm Dm Bb
    That's how it feels to be me

Gm Dm Bb

Bb
    (Spoken)
N.C.
    You have proven to be more of a maze
    Than construction season in the Heritage Hill one-ways
    For someone who's not from Grand Rapids on their very first days
    But me, I paid attention on my late night skates
N.C.
    And when I was driving around in my van and how my best friend,
    Who lived here his whole life,
    Told me I know the city better than him
    He said "Ty, it's like the back of your hand."
N.C.
    I said "Alec, I'd trade it in a heartbeat for the backbone of a man."
    I had to change my way home from work cause I couldn't even stand to
    Drive by her, and see her on her front lawn, with her bikini on getting a tan
    Cause, here's the thing
N.C.
    I don't need Fountain or Union Street
    For anything except Martha's Vineyard and the bakery so
    I'll just take the back of Michigan Hill down
    East, turn around and follow Lion all the way there cause this is what I found
N.C.
    Life, may or may not be about finding true love
    But, it's certainly not about begging for it from someone so
    I'll keep doing the things that I do
    Late nights, fat blunts, pizza pies with my crew
N.C.
    Driving home from whatever bar's half-off after two
    While I'm blasting my favorite tunes and
    Seeing my favorite local bands at whatever venues
    While you keep doing the things that you do, shifting blame, and twisting truth
N.C.
    And making absolutely positively sure that everybody in the room is certain
    That the victim just had to be you, well


[Outro]
Gm       Dm          Bb
    I'll keep doing the things that I do
             Gm     Dm      Bb                       Gm Dm Bb
    And I'll find someone who wants me like I wanted you
            Bb                        Gm Dm Bb
    So sing along at a show this weekend
          Bb                         Bb     Gm Dm Bb
    Act a fool, get drunk with these friends, that you love
            Bb                                Gm Dm Bb
    Someone somewhere said all good things end
Bb                                                              Gm Dm Bb
    So what in my mind made me think this time would be different
