(Intro)
[G] [G] [G]
(Verse 1)
[G]You took your smile back to New York
[G]But you left your toothbrush
[G]And I hope you bought a new one but I'd love you toothless
[G]I used to sing while in the shower, now I don't
[C]'Cause you're not there to sing along
[C]While you put your makeup on
[G]You took your smile back to New York
[G]But you left your toothbrush
(Pre-Chorus)
[G]And I'd love you just the same
But I'm [C]worried words lose weight
Does it [G]hit you just as hard from three thousand miles away?
From [G]three thousand miles away, from three...
(Chorus)
[G]I used to like to go out before I met you
Now I just [Em]go out to forget you
Put my [G]nice shoes on so strangers can't tell
That I [C]miss your dirty Air Force 1's
I used to like [G]to go out before I met you
Now I just [Em]go out to forget you
Put my [G]favourite shirt on so strangers don't know
That it [C]looks way better on [G]you
(Verse 2)
[C]Took my heart to California, now it doesn't work [G]right
[G]Yeah, it beats and, yeah, it beats, [C]but damn, it hurts every [G]night
[G]You're not lonely just because you are alone
[G]But ever since we said goodbye, [C]well, I just happen to be both
I took my heart to California, [Em]now it's broken
(Pre-Chorus)
And I [G]love you just the same
But I'm [C]worried words lose weight
Does [G]it hit you just as hard from three thousand miles away?
From [Em]three thousand miles away, from [G]three...
(Chorus)
[G]I used to like to go out before I met you
Now I just [C]go out to forget you
Put [G]my nice shoes on so strangers can't tell
That [C]I miss your dirty Air Force 1's
I used to like [G]to go out before I met you
Now I [Em]just go out to forget you
Put my [G]favourite shirt on so [C]strangers don't know
That it looks way better on [G]you...
