      G                            C
It’s been a couple months since I moved in all my stuff
      G                                       D
But this place still don’t feel like it’s my home
    Em                               C
And everybody thinks that we’re the poster kids for love
        G                                D
But we lay in bed and make love to our phones

Am7          G/B         C             D
Even at our lowest low, we don’t ever let it show
Am7              G/B            C
We both know we shouldn’t be together

Chorus:
     C  D    Em  G/B C
But we look good on paper
         C  D   Em  G/B  C
We keep foolin’ all the neighbors
      Em          D/F#  G
They think we’ve got a perfect life
        Em        D/F#      G
‘Cause they don’t hear us when we fight, so
 C  D    Em  G/B C
We look good on paper

                        G D Em G/B C
Then we fall apart later
                        G D Em G/B C
Then we fall apart later

Friday night when we go out and meet all our other friends
You're in that little black dress that I like
Posin’ for a photograph, we smile and play pretend
Is there any part of you that’s tired of lying?

Even at our lowest low, we don't ever let it show
We both know we shouldn’t be together

Chorus

Then we fall apart later
Then we fall apart later
Then we fall apart later
Then we fall apart later

It's been a couple months since I moved in all my stuff
But this place still don't feel like it's my home
I don't wanna waste your time
I don't know why I'm wastin' mine
So tell me why the hell we're still together

Chorus:
Is it 'cause we look good on paper?
We keep foolin' all the neighbors
They think we've got a perfect life
'Cause they don't hear us when we fight
So we look good on paper

Then we fall apart later
Then we fall apart later
Then we fall apart later
Then we fall apart later
