D#m       C#             B              F#
I didn't think that I'd see you here tonight
            D#m                   C#   B F#
But there's something kinda nice about it
D#m         C#              B              F#
It's been a year since you gave me back my love
      D#m                      C#    B F#
And I wonder how you've been without it

G#m7
You're holding someone close
F#/A#
Should hurt, somehow it don't
B
I guess that's how I know
I've finally let you go

Chorus:
  D#m                   C#
I never thought I'd be happy
    B                F#
To see you with somebody new
D#m                   C#
Never thought I'd be happy
    B                    F#
To see you do the things we do
     D#m             C#
With somebody else, it's like
        B             F#
You're more yourself, oh
   D#m                  C#
I never thought I'd be happy
    B                F#
To see you with somebody new

D#m                   C#    B  F#
Never thought I'd be happy
D#m                   C#    B  F#
Never thought I'd be happy

Spent all my weekends pretending I was fine
Just to get you out my mind for an evening
(For an evening)
I used to wish you would never find the one
But it's good to see you loved, let's call it even

You're holding someone close
Should hurt, somehow it don't
I guess that's how I know
I've finally let you go

Chorus:
I never thought I'd be happy
to see you with somebody new
Never thought I'd be happy
to see you do the things we do
With somebody else, it's like
You're more yourself
Oh, I never thought I'd be happy
to see you with somebody new

G#m7                       B
So many nights of barely sleeping
               D#m
Wide awake and dreaming
  C#              B
I wanted you back (I wanted you back)
G#m7                               B
It's clear we're good without each other
              D#m
Dancing with another
      C#               B
It's better like that

Chorus:
I never thought I'd be happy
Never thought I'd be happy
With somebody else, it's like
You're more yourself
Oh, I never thought I'd be happy
to see you with somebody new
Never thought I'd be happy
to see you with somebody new
Never thought I'd be happy
to see you do the things we do
With somebody else,
it's like you're more yourself
Oh, I never thought I'd be happy
to see you with somebody new
