[Verse]
 
      Cadd9           G              D
Once upon a time, I believe it was a Tuesday
       Cadd9                      G             D
When I caught your eye, we caught onto something
         Cadd9             G                D
I hold onto the night, you looked me in the eye
            Cadd9     D
And told me you loved me, were you just kidding?
 
          Cadd9           G                 D
'Cause it seems to me this thing is breaking down
          Cadd9                     G          D
We almost never speak, I don't feel welcome anymore
          Cadd9
Baby what happened
                         G
Please tell me cause one second it was perfect
           D
Now you're halfway out the door
 
 
[Chorus]
 
            Cadd9                  G
And I stare at the phone, he still hasn't called
             D                         Em7
And then you feel so low you can't feel, nothing at all
        Cadd9             G                   D
And you flashback to when he said forever and always
 
           Cadd9                  G
Oh, and it rains in your bedroom, everything is wrong
   D                              Em7
It rains when you're here and it rains when you're gone
       Cadd9            G                    D
'Cause I was there when you said forever and always
 
 
[Verse]
 
      Cadd9                  G                D
Was I out of line? Did I say something way to honest?
         Cadd9               G             D
Made you run and hide like a scared little boy
           Cadd9                   G              D
I looked into your eyes, thought I knew you for a minute
        Cadd9  D
Now I'm not so sure
 
             Cadd9     (G)            (D)
So here's to everything coming down to nothing
          Cadd9        G              D
Here's to silence that cuts me to the core
              Cadd9
Where is this going?
          G          D            Cadd9    D
Thought I knew for a minute but I don't anymore
 
 
[Chorus]
 
            Cadd9                  G
And I stare at the phone, he still hasn't called
             D                         Em7
And then you feel so low you can't feel, nothing at all
        Cadd9             G                   D
And you flashback to when he said forever and always
 
           Cadd9                  G
Oh, and it rains in your bedroom, everything is wrong
   D                              Em7
It rains when you're here and it rains when you're gone
       Cadd9            G                    D
'Cause I was there when you said forever and always
 
 
[Bridge]
 
                      Em D C
Did you mean it baby?
                 Em D C D
I don't think so
 
Cadd9 G D Em7 Cadd9 G D
 
   Em7            Cadd9
Oh back up, baby back up
           D
Did you forget everything?
Em7            Cadd9
Back up, baby back up
           D          Cadd9 D
Did you forget everything?
 
 
[Verse]
 
          Cadd9                  G
'Cause it rains in your bedroom, everything is wrong
   D                              Em7
It rains when you're here and it rains when you're gone
       Cadd9            G                    D
'Cause I was there when you said forever and always
 
 
[Chorus]
 
           Cadd9                  G
Oh I stare at the phone, he still hasn't called
             D                         Em7
And then you feel so low you can't feel, nothing at all
        Cadd9             G                   D
And you flashback to when we said forever and always
 
       Cadd9                  G
And it rains in your bedroom, everything is wrong
   D                              Em7
It rains when you're here and it rains when you're gone
       Cadd9            G                    D
'Cause I was there when you said forever and always
 
 
[Outro]
 
                        Em D C
You didn't mean it baby
                            Em D C
You said forever and always,     yeah
