C#m
Some things look on good paper
A                               E
Some things are written in the stars
                               B  
Some stories are worth telling,
                  B
and then there's ours
C#m
Some things look like forever
A                                 E
That picture perfect dream come true
                            B                  B
Some people make you better, and then there's you

Chorus:
                      C#m
I guess it is what it is
Wrong place, wrong time
                  A
But I couldn't resist those night time white lies
               E
Stuck on your lips, you were my heaven sent
           B             B
Now if I never see you again
                      C#m
I guess it is what it is
                                           A
False hope broke me like I'm something to fix
Road-trip type love
                      E
Then we drove off a cliff, you were my heaven sent
           B             B
Now if I never see you again
                      C#m
I guess it is what it is

I gotta hand it to you
You play the victim all too well
It's hard to know you're lying,
when you're lying to yourself
Look, the tears won't work,
you won't find those words
That'll ever fix my heart
'Cause the day I fell for you,
is the day I fell apart
