                         A      C#              F#m     D
You think you're such a cool kid and everybody likes you
                   A      C#                     F#m  D
Know you think I'm stupid, say you know more than I do
                      A          C#                F#m      D
But what you'll never understand, is I used to be such a fan
                       A       C#                       F#m    D
But now you're such a cool kid, it's like I don't even know you

Yeah

A           C#      F#m               D
I'm getting really sick, sick of how sorry sounds
A            C#        F#m   D
Coming right out your mouth, oh-oh
A            C#
Don't get to comfortable
F#m             D
'Cause I might not be there
A             C#
Next time you turn around, so

Chorus:
A              C#       F#m       D
What would you do if I leave and don't come back?
A          C#            F#m             D
I hope it breaks you in two (I hope it breaks you in two)
A         C#            F#m          Dm        A             C#
If I gave back all the pain that you put me through (Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh)
F#m         D
What would you do?

I've always been a nice girl, I'm pretty understanding
But you mess up my head, boy, and you're taking me for granted
And you're probably gonna throw a fit (Throw a fit)
When I call you out on all your shit (All your shit)
Yeah, I used to be a nice girl
I bet you wish it lasted, oh

I'm getting really sick, sick of how "sorry" sounds
Coming right out your mouth (Out your mouth), oh-oh (Oh-oh)
Don't get too comfortable
'Cause I might not be there
Next time you turn around, so

Chorus

A
We'll make plans and I won't show up
C#
I won't listen, I'll interrupt
           D                                      Dm
When your birthday comes, won't answer ya 'cause so what?
So what? So what?
A                                        C#
I'll go out and kiss your friends like, "Oh my God, get over it"
       D                              Dm
Yeah, go get drunk so you forget I'm gone

Chorus:
What would you do if I leave and don't come back?
I hope it breaks you in two (Breaks you in two)
If I gave back all the pain that you put me through
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh)
What would you do?

(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh)
What would you do?
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh)
What would you do?
