Payphone    (video)

 

              C                            G

I'm at a payphone trying to call home,

                 Em                        D

all of my change I spent on you.

                           C                                G

Where have the times gone, baby, it's all wrong,

                        Em                          D

where are the plans we made for two?

 

             C                                                - G

1. Yeah, I, I know it's hard to remember        the people we used to be,

Em                                        - D

    it's even harder to picture,       that you're not here next to me.

C                                                   - G

    You say it's too late to make it,        but is it too late to try ?

Em                                                    D                                      C

    And in our time that you wasted, all of our bridges burned down.

 

                              G                                      Em                         D

    I've wasted my nights, you turned out the lights, now I'm paralyzed,

                               C                                 G

    still stuck in that time when we called it love,

                         Em                     D

    but even the sun sets in paradise,

 

+  CHORUS

 

                          C              G

+  If happy ever after did exist,

                            Em                      D

    I would still be holding you like this.

                          C                        G

    All those fairytales are full of sh*t,

                               Em                      D

    one more stupid love song, I'll be sick. Oh !

 

   C                                                        - G

2.   You turned your back on tomorrow,      ‘cause you forgot yesterday,

Em                                              - D

    I gave you my love to borrow,        but you just gave it away.

C                                                   - G

    You can't expect me to be fine,        I don't expect you to care,

Em                                              D                                      C

    I know I've said it before, but all of our bridges burned down

 

                              G                                      Em                         D

    I've wasted my nights, you turned out the lights, now I'm paralyzed,

                               C                                 G

    still stuck in that time when we called it love,

                         Em                     D

    but even the sun sets in paradise,

 

+  CHORUS

 

                          C              G

+  If happy ever after did exist,

                            Em                      D

    I would still be holding you like this.

                                 C                        G

    And all those fairytales are full of sh*t,

                               Em                      D                           C

    one more stupid love song, I'll be sick. Now I’m at a payphone.

3.                      Man work that sh*t,

    G

    I'll be out spending all this money while you sitting round,

      Em

    wondering why it wasn't you who came up from nothing,

       D

    made it from the bottom, now when you see me I'm stunning.

C

    And all of my cars start with the push up a button,

     G

    telling me the chances I blew up or whatever you call it,

Em

    switched the number to my phone, so you never could call it.

D

    Don't need my name on my show, you can tell it, I'm ballin',

C

    Swish, what a shame could have got picked,

G                                                                                 Em

    had a really good game, but you missed your last shot,

 

    so you talk about who you see at the top,

             D

    or what you could've saw, but sad to say it's over for.

C

    Phantom pulled up valet open doors,

G

    Wiz like go away, got what you was looking for,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Em

    now ask me who they want,

                       D

    so you can go and take that little piece of sh*t with you.

 

+  CHORUS

 

                          C              G

+  If happy ever after did exist,

                            Em                      D

    I would still be holding you like this.

                          C                        G

    All these fairytales are full of sh*t,

                               Em                      D

    one more stupid love song, I'll be sick.

 

                           C

+  Now I’m at a payphone.
