C
Pack up your things
          F          F7
Here’s a bus ticket home
           C
For your troubles
    D             F  G
I know it’s not ideal
C
I’ll walk you down
        F           F7
And my moms on the porch
              C
She wants to say goodbye
   D              F   G
I know it’s not ideal

Chorus:
    C
But in what world
    E7
Do these things go
    Am7              A#
The way we want them to?
    F
I know I didn’t cry
    Fm
But don’t think I loved you
    C
And in what world
    E7
Do we exist
    Am7               A#
not separate but as two?
          F
Cause I know I didn’t cry
          Fm
And that said something to you
    Dm7         Em7         F
If that world exists I’d believe
      Dm7            Em7            Fmaj7
That love might have some chance at being
  F
True

We have moved on
And it's clear we weren't meant to be lovers
It's obvious sometimes, oh
I know some things now
But it's clear that I don't have a clue
It's obvious sometimes

Chorus:
But in what world do these things
go the way we want them to?
At nights, sometimes, I cry
But these tears are not for you
'Cause in what world do we exist,
not separate but as two?
An alternate dimension
Where I love you too
If that world exists, I'd believe
That love might have some chance of being true
