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