D G/B (4x)


[Verse]
D                    G/B      D
Empty promises and a broken heart,
D                      G/B     D
Hiding in the bathroom of this bar,
A
Crossing out your name in my mind,
     G                                       D            G/B  D
I'll cross out yours now that you've crossed out mine.
D                     G/B      D
I can't believe I got all made up,
D                 G/B      D
Put on this dress that you love,
A                                   G                               D
Only for you to go and pretend like all those years meant nothing.


[Chorus]
             A
So go on and forget,
                     Bm
Act like we've never met,
                    G
Leave with your new friends,
                       D        G/B  D
How quickly your heart mends.


[Verse]
    D                        G/B     D
The jukebox is playing a sad country song,
    D            G/B  D
For all the ugly Americans,
A
Now I feel like one of them,
G                                   D         G/B  D
Dancing alone and broken by the freedom.
D                             G/B     D
Now I'm all dolled up for any drunken fool,
D                 G/B  D
Who thinks he can replace you,
A
Lucky I haven't lost my self respect,
G                                                  D
Despite all you've done, and all that you've said.


[Chorus]
             A
So go on and forget,
                     Bm
Act like we've never met,
                    G
Leave with your new friends,
                       D
How quickly your heart mends.

[Middle 8]
                       A
How quickly your heart mends.
                 Bm           G   D
How quickly your heart mends.

A Bm G D (2x)


[Chorus]
             A
So go on and forget,
                     Bm
Act like we've never met,
                    G
Leave with your new friends,
                       D
How quickly your heart mends.
                       A
How quickly your heart mends.
                 Bm           G   D   G/B  D
How quickly your heart mends.
