Thought I might love you again, I’ll see how I feel,
now that you’re actin’ like that, boy, I never will.
Last night, she answered my call, it sealed the deal –
right now I’m not even about you…
Emaj7Thought I might love you again, see how I feel,
F#now that you’re actin’ like that, I never will.
G#mLast night, she answered my call, it sealed the deal,
right now I’m not even about you.
Emaj7     The day I met you, boy, I thought it was a F#blessin’,
in the heat of it, I always took your G#mside.
It’s a shame you out here tryna make it messy,
wow, you’re messy, man.
Emaj7     We wеre good, I thought we made it through thе F#ending,
I was hearin’ things I never thought you’d G#msay.
Could have picked it up exactly where we left it,
took our future off your plate.
Emaj7Let’s go song for song, let’s go back to back,
F#let’s go tit for tat, boy, you asked for that.
G#mThat’s the best you got, where’s the good one at?
I was never as far away as you thought…
Emaj7Thought I might love you again, see how I feel,
F#now that you’re actin’ like that, I never will.
G#mLast night, she answered my call, it sealed the deal,
right now I’m Bnot even about you.
Emaj7Thought I might love you again, see how I feel,
F#now that you’re actin’ like that, I never will.
G#mLast night, she answered my call, it sealed the deal,
right now I’m not even about you.
Emaj7     I was nothing but respectful and you F#know that.
Why you changin’ up the narrative to G#mwrite?
No I can’t do this, you’re making me do this,
if you wanna fight…
Emaj7Let’s go song for song, let’s go back to back,
F#‘til you fix yourself, you can keep all that.
G#mThat’s the best you got, where’s the good one at?
Should’ve known you’d be the type to change…
Emaj7Thought I might love you again, see how I feel,
F#now that you’re actin’ like that, I never will.
G#mLast night, she answered my call, it sealed the deal,
right now I’m Bnot even about you.
Emaj7Thought I might love you again, see how I feel,
F#now that you’re actin’ like that, I never will.
G#mLast night, she answered my call, it sealed the deal,
right now I’m not even about you.
Emaj7That looks like it really hurts,
that bruise on your F#ego,
G#mI know that it makes it worse,
it had to be me, though.
Emaj7Thought I might love you again, see how I feel,
F#now that you’re actin’ like that, I never will.
G#mLast night, she answered my call, it sealed the deal,
right now I’m—
Emaj7Thought I might love you again, see how I feel,
F#now that you’re actin’ like that, I never will.
G#mLast night, she answered my call, it sealed the deal,
right now I’m Bpartyin’ without you.
Emaj7Thought I might love you again,
F#now that you’re actin’ like that…
(I’m partyin’ without you)
G#mLast night, she answered my call,
I’m partyin’ without you.
