A
I told my friends you were the one
After I'd known you, like, a month
                                    E
And then you kissed some girl from high school
A
And I stayed in bed for, like, a week
When you said space was what you need
                           E
Waited by my phone like a goddamn fool

Chorus:
        D         A
And now it don't mean a thing
      E                      C#m
God, love's fucking embarrassing
      D           A        E  C#m
Just watch as I crucify myself
     D          A
For some weird second string
 E                         C#m
Loser who's not worth mentionin'
    D             A             E  C#m
My God, love's embarrassing as hell

And I consoled you while you cried
Over your ex-girlfriend's new guy
My God, how could I be so stupid?
You found a new version of me
And I damn near started World War III
Jesus, what was I even doin'?

Chorus:
'Cause now it don't mean a thing
God, love's fuckin' embarrassin'
Just watch as I crucify myself
For some weird second string
Loser who's not worth mentioning
My God, love's embarrassing as hell

  D
I give up, give up
A
I give up everything
    E
I placed my bets and
               C#m
It's not worth anything
   D
I give up, give up
A                           E C#m
But I keep comin' back for more

Chorus:
It don't mean a thing
God, love's fuckin' embarrassin'
Just watch as I crucify myself, hey, hey, hey
For some weird second string
Loser who's not worth mentioning
My God, love's embarrassing as hell

Yeah, yeah, I give up (Ah), give up,
I give up everything (Ah-ha-ha)
I'm plannin' out my wedding with some guy
I'm never marryin'
I'm givin' up, I'm givin' up, but
I keep comin' back for more
