The writing on the wall, how could I know

G 
Your smile was just a poker face
D
Said I could never be replaced
Em
I guess you told a lie, said we'd always be
C
Together, you and I, but suddenly
Em                       D
You say there's a tear
C
Caught me unprepared
G
Next time warn me before
D
I find my heart on the floor
Em                                                  C
Should have known that I don't like surprises, baby
G
Cause I'm still feeling it hard
D
Caught me way off guard
Em
Why am I the last to know,
C
When baby all I'm asking for is
G
Gimme a heads up, won't you, won't you
D
Gimme a heads up, oh

Gimme a heads up, gimme a heads up

Come from behind and smash my fragile heart

It's just a little rip when you catch me blind
