            D#m
You’ve been running ‘round,
Running ‘round, running ‘round
              C#
Throwing that dirt all on my name.
           A#m7
‘Cause you knew that I’d,
Knew that I’d, knew that I’d
         B
Call you up. Eh.
            D#m
You’ve been going ‘round,
Going ‘round, going ‘round
      C#
Every party in L. A.
           A#m7
‘Cause you knew that I’d,
Knew that I’d, knew that I’d
      B
Be at one. Oh.

 D#m                         C#
   I know that dress is Karma,
   Perfume Regret;
       A#m7
   You got me thinking
                        B
   ‘bout when you were mine. Ooh.
 D#m                       C#
   And now I’m all up on ya,
   What you expect?
       A#m7
   But you’re not coming home
              B
   With me tonight.

                     D#m
     You just want attention,
                       C#
     You don’t want my heart.
                    A#m
     Maybe you just hate the thought
                         B
     Of me with someone new.
                            D#m
     Yeah, you just want attention.

     You’re just making sure
                             B
     I’m never getting over you. Ooh.

You’ve been running ‘round,
Running ‘round, running ‘round
              C#
Throwing that dirt all on my name.
           A#m

Knew that I’d, knew that I’d
         B
Call you up.
      D#m
Baby, now that we’re,
Now that we’re, now that we’re
            C#
Right here standing face to face.
      A#m
You already know, ‘ready know, ’ready know
          B
That you won. Ooh.
