Verse 1
So (A minor) Marigold,
my love, you've (C major) had too much to drink,
An (F major) d I need not remind you,
our (G major) discount tickets (E major) for this sinking ship.
(A minor) Take-backs and and sweet regrets,
that's (C major) all that we have left.
(F major) No one is looking out for
(G major) anyone but (E major) number one.
(A minor) One to one, two to dance,

Verse 2
She said, “It hurts too (C major) much,” I said,
“It will never hurt (E minor) enough,”
No one will ever see these (C major) cuts,
no one will ever call this (G major) bluff,
But that's just the way (A minor) that it goes,
And when he left (G major) us he said, (F major)
"It's not so (C major) (A minor) bad.”
That mother (G major) fucker,
(F major) he took everything we (C major) had,
And (A minor) when I'm (G major) thinking back,
I'm (F major) counting all the (C major) ways,
(A minor) Nobody helped (G major) us,
so we (F major) dreamt of better (C major) days,
And we sang, (G major)
"That's just the way that it goes,"
Yeah, we (A minor) used to be in love (my love!), (F major)
but (C major) now we're just in (G major) like,
And we (A minor) broke (F major) all our promises,
and (C major) baby that ain't (G major) right
Because you don't (A minor) know what it's like
to lose it all…
(Take it back, take (F major) it back,
because you don't know!
(C major) Take it back, take it (G major) back,
because you don't know
(A minor) what it's (F major) like to (C major) be on the re
ceiving (G major) end of it all!) (A minor)
No! No! (F major) You were (C major) not on the
receiv (G major) ing end of it all! (A minor)
No! (F major) No! You were (C major) not on the
receiv (G major) ing end of it all! (A minor)
(F major) No! No! You were (C major) not on the
receiv (G major) ing end of it all! (A minor)
(F major) No! No! You were (C major) not on (G major) the
receiving end of it all!
(A minor) You beg and (F major) plead,
but no (C major) one here can save (G major) you (A minor) -
Why would they try (F major) when they (C major) can't
quite save (G major) themselves? (A minor)

Verse 3
So Marigold, (A minor)
someday we'll (C major) have to write a script,
But (F major) I won't stop denying ashamed (G major)
of all the (E major) selfish things we did.
(A minor) Dropped out of every single
(C major) friendship that you had, (A minor)
(F major) They nearly loved you,
but you (G major) never could have (E major) loved somebody back. (A minor)
Tell me (G major) of your (C major) sorrows,
(F major) tell me everything from the start, (G major)
I'd (E major) like to do my (A minor) part to
help a friend in need (C major) -
I said you could come to me,
But (F major) when you needed someone most,
I (G major) wasn't there, I wasn't even...

because you don't know
(A minor) what it's (F major) like to (C major) be on the receiving
(G major) end of (A minor) it all!) (F major)
No! No! You were (C major) not on the
receiving end of it all! (A minor)
No! (F major) No! You were (C major) not on the
receiv (G major) ing end of it all! (A minor)
