Em                    D          C G
Like a spotlight the water hits me
Em            D                 C             G
Ran it extra cold to shake the words from my mouth
Em              D            C       G
Though I know that no one's listening
Em             D           C           G
I nervously rehearse for when you're around
            Am                      C
And I keep waiting like you might change my mind

Chorus:
Em                    D      C G
Who wrote the book on goodbye?
         Em                D           C  G
There's never been a way to make this easy
             Em                      D              C    G
When there's nothing quite wrong but it don't feel right
             Em           D                 C         G
Either your head or your heart, you set the other on fire

Back and forth now I'm feelin' guilty
'Cause I just can't stop this pendulum in my head
Though I know that our time is ending
Oh, I'd rather lay forever right in this bed
And I keep waiting like, you might change my mind
Give me one more night

Chorus

       Em   D   C  G
No one knows (Knows)
       Em   D   C  G
No one knows (Knows)

D                  Em
We fell from the peak
C                                D
And the stars, they broke their code
                 Em
I'm trying to forget
C                     D
How I landed on this road
                   Em
I'm caught in between
C                        D
What I wish and what I know
When they say that you just know

Chorus:
Who wrote the book on goodbye?
There's never been a way to make this easy
When there's nothing quite wrong but it don't feel right
Either your head or your heart, you set the other on fire

No one knows (Knows)
No one knows (Knows)
No one knows (Knows)

You set the other on fire
You set the other on fire
(You set the other on fire, you set the other on fire)
