Am   G    D


[Verse 1]
Em              G                        D
  I won't tell them about the things you said
Em              G                        D
  I won't tell them about the nights you left
Em              G                    D
  I won't show them these texts I saved

Or the games you played;
                                 
They won't know nothing 'bout it
C                G*                 D
     Whenever somebody says your name

I don't break

I just say:


[Chorus]
Am                G
 "It's for the best."
             Em
"It's over now."
                      D
"It wasn't anyone's fault."
                  
"It didn’t work out."
Am                 G
    "She's a good girl, just wasn't the one."
Em   
"We wanted different things."
D
"We had a good run."
Am                G
"She's better off. And so am I."
Em                   D
"It is what it is, man, it's alright."
Am         G                           D
   I won't tell them how you broke my heart;
                                  Am   G    D
I'll just tell that we grew apart
                                  Am   G    D
I'll just tell that we grew apart


[Verse 2]
Em              G                     D
   I could tell them how you came in late
Em             G                           D
I could tell them how you looked me in the eye and told that lie with a straight face
C       G*                      D
I don't know why I don't, but maybe I hope, it ain't really over
C             G*
     What's it say about me?
D
Am I that weak?

'Cause I just keep saying:


[Chorus]
Am                G
 "It's for the best."
             Em
"It's over now."
                     D
"It wasn't anyone's fault."

"It didn’t work out."
Am                 G
"She's a good girl, just wasn't the one."
Em
"We wanted different things."
D
"We had a good run."
Am                G
"She's better off. And so am I."
Em                  D
"It is what it is, man, it's alright."
Am         G                           D
   I won't tell them how you broke my heart;

I'll just tell that we grew apart


[Bridge]
 Am     G               D
I swear that I've been, oh, I've been trying something
Am            G      D
But I can't deny when, boy you know, I felt it coming
C   G*    D
Hey hey hey, I felt it coming
C  G*     D
Hey hey hey


[Chorus]
Am                G
 "It's for the best."
             Em
"It's over now."
                     D
"It wasn't anyone's fault."

"It didn’t work out."
Am                   G
      "She's a good girl, just wasn't the one."
Em
"We wanted different things."
D
"We had a good run."
Am                G
"She's better off. And so am I."
D
"It is what it is, man, it's alright."
Am         G                           D
   I won't tell them how you broke my heart;
                                  Am
I'll just tell that we grew apart
Am        G                           D
I won't tell them how you broke my heart;
                                  Am
I'll just tell that we grew apart
