C            G                Am                   F
You can tell all our friends, everything that you hate about me
C                     G                    Am           F
Don't leave out the things you'd change if you had a choice
C            G                 Am             F
Find a bar, have some drinks, go to bed with somebody else then
C           G                      Am           F
Call me up just so I can hear the sound of his voice
(The sound of his voice)

Dm C       F                           G
'Cause I know it's the wrong thing to say
        E/G#               Am
But I'm only tryna find a way
To tell you

Chorus:
C           G
You got me sittin' in your car
Am                    F
Thinkin' you can do anything you wanna
C                            G                  Am     F
Take you for a drive to the nosedive, make sure I die first
C           G                       Am                F
I guess no matter how far, it don't ever add up to a life without you
C                          G                  Am     F
I don't wanna know, baby, don't go, make sure I die first

Take my card, max it out, spend it all on some shit you don't need
Turn around and tell me that it wasn't enough (It wasn't enough)
Call my mom, make her cry, talk about how I dissappoint you
Put me down, bottom line, I'll still be in love

'Cause I know it's the wrong thing to say (Mm-hmm)
But I'm only tryna find a way
To tell you

Chorus:
You got me sittin' in your car
Thinkin' you can do anything you wanna
Take it for a drive, do a nosedive,
make sure I die first
(Yeah, I die first)
I guess no matter how far,
it'll never add up to a life without you
I don't wanna know, baby, don't go,
make sure I die first

    C G Am
Yeah
          F          C G Am
Make sure I die first
          F
Make sure I die first

Chorus:
You got me sittin' in your car
Thinkin' you can do anything you wanna
Take it for a drive, do a nosedive,
make sure I die first (I die first)
I guess no matter how far (How far),
it'll never add up to a life without you
I don't wanna know, baby, don't go,
make sure I die first
Yeah

Can't live without you, baby
Can you make sure, I die first?
Can't live without you, baby
Can you make sure, I die first?
