(Verse 1)
[G] You took your smile back to New York
[G] But you left your toothbrush
[G] And I hope you bought a new one but I'd love you toothless
[G] I used to sing while in the shower, now I don't
[C] 'Cause you're not there to sing along
[C] While you put your makeup on
[G] You took your smile back to New York
[G] But you left your toothbrush
(Pre-Chorus)
[G] And I'd love you just the same
But I'm [C] worried words lose weight
Does it [G] hit you just as hard from three thousand miles away?
From [G] three thousand miles away, from three...
(Chorus)
[G] I used to like to go out before I met you
Now I just [Em] go out to forget you
Put my [G] nice shoes on so strangers can't tell
That I [C] miss your dirty Air Force 1's
I used to like [G] to go out before I met you
Now I just [Em] go out to forget you
Put my [G] favourite shirt on so strangers don't know
That it [C] looks way better on [G] you
(Verse 2)
[C] Took my heart to California, now it doesn't work [G] right
[G] Yeah, it beats and, yeah, it beats, [C] but damn, it hurts every [G] night
[G] You're not lonely just because you are alone
[G] But ever since we said goodbye, [C] well, I just happen to be both
I took my heart to California, [Em] now it's broken
(Pre-Chorus)
And I [G] love you just the same
But I'm [C] worried words lose weight
Does [G] it hit you just as hard from three thousand miles away?
From [Em] three thousand miles away, from [G] three...
(Chorus)
[G] I used to like to go out before I met you
Now I just [C] go out to forget you
Put [G] my nice shoes on so strangers can't tell
That [C] I miss your dirty Air Force 1's
I used to like [G] to go out before I met you
Now I [Em] just go out to forget you
Put my [G] favourite shirt on so [C] strangers don't know
That it looks way better on [G] you...
