GD
Let me start with I've let you go
GD
But you don't get it, though

Politely I've asked you to leave,
F#mA
But still you follow

D
You're the girl that cries, "Water in the basement"
G
Everybody stop, wait, look, see
D
You're the girl that could lie to my face

And fabricate a flood to get through to me
D
I went away and you found a replacement
G
So call him , don't call me
D
To the girl that cries, "Water in the basement"
GDG
You drama everything

G
Say your last goodbye, I don't give a fuck
AG
Bottoms up, just watch me walk away
DG
I'm here to say that - I don't need your sorry dream at all
DG
What makes you think you can - Tell me how to feel or how hard I should fall?
