[Verse]
Em                   D          C        G 
Like a spotlight the water hits me 
Em           D                  C             G 
Ran it extra cold to shake the words from my mouth 
Em                  D            C         G 
Though I know that no one's listening 
Em            D            C           G 
I nervously rehearse for when you're around 
            Em      D              C         G 
And I keep waiting like you might change my mind
[Chorus]
Em                    D        C     G 
Who wrote the book on goodbye? 
        Em                  D        C    G 
There's never been a way to make this easy 
            Em                         D             C    G 
When there's nothing quite wrong but it don't feel right 
            Em            D                 C         G 
Either your head or your heart, you set the other on fire
[Verse]
Em                    D             C    G 
Back and forth now I'm feelin' guilty 
Em                 D          C              G 
Cause I just can't stop this pendulum in my head 
Em                   D          C      G 
Though I know that our time is ending 
Em          D                C        G 
I'd rather lay forever right in this bed 
           Em       D              C         G 
And I keep waiting like, you might change my mind 
        C        G 
Give me one more night
[Chorus]
Em                    D        C     G 
Who wrote the book on goodbye? 
        Em                  D        C    G 
There's never been a way to make this easy 
            Em                         D             C    G 
When there's nothing quite wrong but it don't feel right 
            Em            D                 C         G 
Either your head or your heart, you set the other on fire 
       Em      D          C     G 
No one kno - o - ows, o - o - o - ows 
       Em      D          C     G 
No one kno - o - ows, o - o - o - ows
[Bridge]
D                  Em 
We fell from the peak 
C                               D 
And the stars, they broke their code 
                 Em 
I'm trying to forget 
C                     D 
How I landed on this road 
                   Em 
I'm caught in between 
C                      D 
What I wish and what I know 
 
When they say that you just know
[Chorus]
Em                    D        C     G 
Who wrote the book on goodbye? 
        Em                  D        C    G 
There's never been a way to make this easy 
            Em                         D             C    G 
When there's nothing quite wrong but it don't feel right 
            Em            D                 C         G 
Either your head or your heart, you set the other on fire
[Outro]
       Em      D          C     G 
No one kno - o - ows, o - o - o - ows 
       Em      D          C     G 
No one kno - o - ows, o - o - o - ows 
       Em      D          C     G 
No one kno - o - ows, o - o - o - ows 
       Em      D          C     G 
No one kno - o - ows, o - o - o - ows 
            C         G 
you set the other on fire 
            C         G 
you set the other on fire
