C            Am                Em  F Em
Things have been so crazy and hectic
F                     Em        F G
I should have gotten back by now
C         Am                       Em    F Em
But you know how much I wanted to make it
F              Em          F G
It's probably better anyhow
Dm F                C G
   So if you gotta go
Dm   F                         G
If there's anything I should know
Am       Em                 F     C G F C G F C G
If the spotlight makes you nervous
Am         Em            F      C G F C G F C G
If you're looking for a purpose

You put the tea in the kettle and light it
Put your hand on the metal and feel it
But do you even feel it anymore?
I remember when you thought I was joking
Now I'm off singing karaoke
Further than I've ever been
So if you gotta go
If there's any way I can help

           G                           Am
Isn't it ironic that the girl I wanna marry
                     Em
Is a wedding planner?
                              F
Then tells me my life is too much
                         Em
And then moves to Atlanta
                   F
Damn, of all the places you could go
         Em
I just thought you'd choose somewhere
          F                  G
That has somebody that you know

    C                            Am
I'm always up too late, I worry 'bout you there alone
         Em                             F
In that place you call your home, warm nights and cold patron
   Em                                    F
I hope you don't get known for nothing crazy
                    Em                                 F  G
'Cause no man ever wants to hear no stories 'bout his lady

                     C
I know they say the first love is the sweetest
          Am
But that first cut is the deepest
   Em
I tried to keep us together,
           F
you were busy keeping secrets secret
 Em                         F
You were tellin' everybody but me
                       Em
Don't be fooled by the money
                            F
I'm still just young and unlucky
         G                  Dm
I'm surprised you couldn't tell

      F                C  G
I was only tryna get ahead
Dm    F                G
I was only tryna get ahead
Am        Em                 F     C G F C G F C G
But the spotlight makes you nervous
Am          Em            F     C G F C G F C G
And you're looking for a purpose

Dm    F                C   G
I was only tryna get ahead
Dm    F                G
I was only tryna get ahead
Am       Em                  F     C G F C G F C G
But the spotlight makes you nervous
