[Verse 1]

Em7*                Am
Now I don't want to hate you
Just wish you'd never gone for the 
   G6*
man
    F
And waited two weeks at least
           Em7*
Before you let him take you
  Am
I stayed true
I kind of knew you liked the dude 
G6*
from private school
     F
He's waiting for the time to move
              Em7*
I knew he had his eyes on you
     Am
He's not the right guy for you
                  G6*
Don't hate me cos I write the truth
   F
No I would never lie to you
                 Em7*
But it was never fine to lose you
    Am
And what a way to find out
   G6*                F
It never came from my mouth
You never changed your mind
                   Em7*            
But you were just afraid to find 
 Am
out
But f- it, I won't be changing the 
       G6*
subject I love it
F                                 
I'll make your little secret 
     Em7*
public its nothing
         Am
I'm just disgusted with the 
skeletons you sleep with
G6*                   F
In your closet to get back at me
Trapped and I'm lacking sleep
Em7*           Am                
Fact is you're mad at me because 
            G6*
I backtrack so casually
F
You're practically my family
                        Em7*       
If we married then I'll guess you'd
         Am
 have to be
But tragically our love just lost 
         G6*
the will to live
F
But would I kill to give it one more
 shot
           Em7*
I think not


[Hook]

        Am
I don't love you baby
G6*     F
I don't need you baby
Em7*    Am
I don't want you no

[Verse 2]

                   Am
Recently I tend to zone out

Up in my headphones to Holocene
G6*               F
You promised your body but I'm away 
so much
            Em7*              
I stay more celibate than in a 
 Am
monastery
                               G6*
Im not cut out for life on the road
             F
Cos I didn't know I'd miss you this 
much
           Em7*                  
And at the time we'd just go, so sue
Am
 me
                             G6*
I guess I'm not the man that you 
need
     F
Ever since you went to uni
                       Em7*  
I've been sofa surfing with a 
     Am
rucksack
Full of less cash and I guess that 
          G6*
could get bad
           F                       
But when I broke the industry 
                         Em7*
that's when I broke your heart

               Am
I was supposed to chart and 
celebrate
                    G6*
But good things are over fast
       F
I know it was hard to deal with and 
see this
       Em7*                Am*
I tend to turn you off and switch on
 my professional features
     G6*              F*
Then I turn the music off
And all I'm left with is to pick up 
   Em7*           Am
my personal pieces, Jesus
                       G6*
I never really want to believe this
    F
Got advice from my dad and he
                    Em7*           
Told me that family is all I'll 
  Am
ever have and need
                       G6*
I guess I'm unaware of it
   F                             
Success is nothing if you have no 
             Em7*
one left to share it with


[Hook]

        Am
I don't love you baby
G6*     F
I don't need you baby
Em7*    Am
I don't want you no
G6* F
Any-more

Em7*     Am
I don't love you baby
G6*     F
I don't need you baby
Em7*    Am
I don't want you no
G6* F
Any-more


[Verse 3]

    Em7*                      Am
And since you left I've given up my 
days off
                         G6*
It's what I need to stay strong
           F                       
I know you have a day job But mine 
       Em7*
is 24/7
            Am                     
I fell like writing a book I guess 
                  G6*
I lied in the hook
            F                      
Cos I still love you and I need you
                     Em7*
 by my side if I could
          Am                       
The irony is if my career and music
             G6*
 didn't exist
       F                           
In six years yeah you'd probably be
                   Em7*
 my wife with a kid
                  Am               
I'm frightened to think if I depend
              G6*
 on cider and drink
               F                   
And lighting a spliff I fall into a
                Em7*
 spiral and it's
               Am                  
Just hiding my misguiding thoughts 
                   G6*
that I'm trying to kill
           F
And I'd be writing my will before 
I'm 27
     Em7*       Am                
I'll die from a thrill Go down in 
                         G6*
history as just a wasted talent
      F                          
Can I face the challenge Or did I 
                Em7*      Am
make a mistake erasing
It's only therapy My thoughts just 
     G6*
get ahead of me
F                                 
Eventually I'll be fine I know 
               Em7*        Am
that it was never meant to be
Either way I guess I'm not prepared
G6*

             F
But I'll say this:
These things happen for a reason and
     Em7*         Am*
 you can't change
                              G6*
Take my apology I'm sorry for the 
honesty
             F*
But I had to get this off my chest


[Hook]

        Am
I don't love you baby
G6*     F
I don't need you baby
Em7*    Am
I don't want you no
G6* F
Any-more

Em7*     Am
I don't love you baby
G6*     F
I don't need you baby
Em7*    Am
I don't want you no
G6* F
Any-more
