                E
I could see a bloodbath coming
                         A
Playing checkers as the flat was flooding
                         C#m              B
I wasn't eating and you still said nothing
A
Better, should’ve known, should've known better
       E
But I dug my heels in
                         A
Got really good at underwater breathing
                  C#m            B
Guess that was my stubborn season
A
Better, should've known, should’ve known better

B           E           G#         A
Baby, it's sad, you're bad in the bones
                B
So I just went home

Chorus:
                   E
Now it's coming up roses
             B
Kicking up snow
             A
What a long winter
What a bad joke
               E
Shady when we held hands
         B                        A
Everyone else can have him but I won't
(Ooh-ooh, ooh)
            E
Love him I don't
Love him I won't
 B                    A
Love him I did for a minute,
but I'm finished ’cause I’ve learnt
            C#m
Loving him hurts
                 B
Loving him don't work
               A
So love him I don’t

Met you through my favourite cousin
Lighting cigarettes off an oven
Fell for you and got a bad concussion
Should've, better, known, should've known better

What a state, what a waste of your twenties
Couple lies, couple times, that's plenty
Oh, you’re bad in the bones, so I'm just going home
Don't text me

Chorus:
Now it's coming up roses
Kicking up snow
What a long winter
What a bad joke
Shady when we held hands
Everyone else can have him but I won't
(Ooh-ooh, ooh)
Love him I don't
Love him I won't
Love him I did for a minute, but
I'm finished 'cause I've learnt
Loving him hurts
Loving him don't work
So love him I don't
(Ooh-ooh, ooh)
Oh, love him I don't
Love him I won't
Love him I did for a minute, but
I'm finished 'cause I've learnt
Loving him hurts
Loving him don't work
So love him I don't

Baby, it's sad, you're bad in the bones
So I just went home

Chorus:
Now it's coming up roses
Kicking up snow
What a long winter
What a bad joke
Shady when we held hands
Everyone else can love you but I won't

Loving you hurts
And I loved you first
It didn't work out, and I wanted it to work
Loved you, I swear
Loving you's not fair
So love you I don't
