A          Bm                F#m
I wrote it down when I first met you
     D                      A
The way that you stared at me
                Bm                      F#m
You're so damn smart, you think you're special
     D                   A
But maybe I wouldn't agree
               Bm
Don't lose perspective
            F#m          D                     A
We all get damaged, and some of us don't ever heal
         Bm            F#m
But you must be happy without me

     D                         C#m
From all of the pictures I've seen of the two of you
D
Is he a model?
    F#m                       E
I'm not surprised, you're so vain
C#m                         D
Let's not pretend like we didn't have problems
         F#m                  E
And I'm back to being angry again
Yeah

Chorus:
A         Bm                  F#m
You never said the things you wanted
F#m           A
You kept them in
            Bm                F#m                        A
You made a scene, and now it haunts you what might have been
          Bm                     F#m
You're so deluded, you're such a fake
F#m                                     A
And now you got somebody else to manipulate
   Bm               F#m
I think I dodged a bullet
D
I made a lucky escape

You probably think I must be broken
Promiscuous boy, be ashamed
Well I can tell you honey, I'm potent
At least I own up to mistakes
Don't lie to me now
Just have some courage and show
them who you really are
All this is too exposing

Do I have to see all the pictures of both of you
Is he a model?
I'm not surprised, I'm so vain
Let's not pretend like we're solving the problem
And I'm back to being angry again
Yeah

Chorus

A                     Bm
You just come back a little too late
F#m
I'll be making my lucky escape
A                     Bm
You just come back a little too late
        F#m
Make my lucky
          D
Make my lucky escape
A                     Bm
You just come back a little too late
F#m
I'll be making my lucky escape
A                    Bm
You just come back a little too late
        F#m
Make my lucky
         D
Make my lucky escape

Chorus
