Intro
Em
(And it's just a nightmare,
G D
It's a nightmare, it's a nightmare
C
even when I'm wide awake)
[Verse 1]
Em G D
You say you're done with him but now
C
you're not sure
Em G D
Is it the paining cause it leaves you
C
wanting more
[Pre-chorus]
Em
Stop calling me the bad guy
G
Don't wanna be that guy
D
It's just that I don't think he's
C
right for you
Em
He ain't treating you right
G
Never been the sad type
D
That was just a thing that you'd
C
rather choose
[Chorus]
Em
And it's just a nightmare,
G D
It's a nightmare, it's a nightmare
C
even when I'm wide awake
Em
So you don't wanna go there,
G
Don't you know go there
Don't you go there every time I say
C
his name
Em G
Throwing a lifeline but you won't take it
D
Sitting on the sideline but you don't
C
blame me
Em
And it's just a nightmare,
G
It's a nightmare, it's a nightmare
D C
Even when I'm wide awake
[Verse 2]
Em G
He holds you back from all the
D C
dreams that you forgot
Em G
You're blinded by promises he
D C
doesn't even want
[Pre-chorus]
Em
You know I'm not the bad guy
G
Don't wanna be that guy
D
It's just that I don't think he's
C
right for you
Em
He ain't treating you right
G
Girl you ain't the sad type
D
Girl can't you see that he's changing
C
you
[Chorus]
Em
And it's just a nightmare,
G
It's a nightmare, it's a nightmare
D C
even when I'm wide awake
Em
So you don't wanna go there,
G
Don't you know go there, don't you go
D C
there every time I say his name
Em
Throwing out a lifeline but you won't
G
take it
D
Sitting on the sideline but you don't
C
blame me
Em
And it's just a nightmare,
G
It's a nightmare, it's a nightmare
D C
even when I'm wide awake
[Bridge]
Em G
I can see you're broken in so many ways
D C
even though it's not in my place
Em
I just wanna help you we can get
G D
Through this phase but you always turn
C
away
Em
And it's just a nightmare,
G
It's a nightmare, it's a nightmare
D C
even when I'm wide awake
Em
So you don't wanna go there,
G
Don't you know go there, don't you go
D C
there every time I say his name
[Chorus]
Em
And it's just a nightmare,
G
It's a nightmare, it's a nightmare
D D
even when I'm wide awake
Em
So you don't wanna go there,
G
Don't you know go there, don't you go
D C
there every time I say his name
Em
Throwing out a lifeline but you won't
G
take it
D
Sitting on the sideline but you don't
C
blame me
Em
And it's just a nightmare,
G
It's a nightmare, it's a nightmare
D C
even when I'm wide awake
Em G D C
Wide awake
