VERSE 
                               G    D  
Let me start with I've let you go 
                        G    D 
But you don't get it, though 
                            G 
Politely I've asked you to leave, 
               F#m    A  
But still you follow 
                               G    D 
It's hard when you're full of heart 
                                      G    D 
When the house you built just falls apart 
                                              G 
Well keep the paint fresh, keep the outside clean 
                 F#m 
Make sure the neighbors see you wear that ring 
       A                             G            D 
Don't tell them a thing, they don't know you like me 
 
 
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 
G 
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" 
G                 D    G 
You drama everything 
 
 
VERSE 
G          D 
I heard a good friend once say 
          G 
"You got one life, live it, 'cause they'll take it away" 
      D                                     G 
From both of us, one day, you know they will 
            A 
So color it up, color it up 
          G 
Say your last goodbye, I don't give a fuck 
A                               G 
Bottoms up, just watch me walk away 
                       D                                 G 
I'm here to say that - I don't need your sorry dream at all 
                                D                                        G 
What makes you think you can - Tell me how to feel or how hard I should fall? 
D                  G 
Oh my, you're not anything I need in my life 
F#m                         Em 
You're not anything I even want 
                   G            D 
'cause they don't know you like me 
 
 
 
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 
G 
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" 
G                 D    G 
You drama everything 
 
 
BRIDGE 
Here's what you gotta do 
D 
Hold you head high 
Em 
Shoot first, man, don't ask why 
F#m                               G 
Yeah, you won't feel the pain at all 
       D 
Well I guess I, grew this mind 
Em 
I think for myself and I'm fine 
F#m                                    G 
No, I don't need anything from you at all 
                         D 
They don't know you like me 
 
 
 
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 
G 
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" 
G                 D    G 
You drama everything 
                                     D 
(Fabricate a flood to get through to me) 
G 
(So call him, don't call me) 
 
 
OUTRO 
G                D 
You drama everything 
D 
Drama 
D 
So much drama
