Rhythm tips ↓-↓↑-↑↓↑

[F]We broke up a month ago Your [Dm]friends are mine You know I know you’ve moved [Gm]on, found someone new, One more [C]girl who brings out the [C7]better in you And [F]I thought my heart was detached From [Dm]all the sunlight of our [F]past But [Gm]she’s so sweet, she’s so pretty, [C]Does she mean you forgot about [C7]me?

I [F]hope you’re happy, but [Dm]not like how you were with me I’m [Gm]selfish I know, I can’t let you go So [C]find someone [C7]great, but don’t find no one better I hope you’re happy [C]but don’t be happier

[F]And do you tell her she’s the most beautiful girl you’ve ever [Dm]seen? An eternal love bullshit you know you’ll never [Gm]mean

Remember when I believed you meant it when you [C]said it first to me? And [F]now I’m picking her apart, Like [Dm]cutting her down will make you miss my wretched heart But she’s [Gm]beautiful, she looks kind She [C]probably gives you [C7]butterflies

I [F]hope you’re happy, but [Dm]not like how you were with me I’m [Gm]selfish I know, I can’t let you go So [C]find someone [C7]great, but don’t find no one better

I [F]hope you’re happy, I [Dm]wish you all the best, really Say [Gm]you love her, baby, just not like you love me And [C]think of me [C7]fondly when your hand’s around her I hope you’re happy [C]but don’t be happier

[F]Ooooh oh oh [Dm]ooooh oh oh [Gm]ooooh oh oh [C]ooooh oooh oooh [C7]oooh

Oh, I [F]hope you’re happy But [Dm]not like how you were with me I’m [Gm]selfish, I know I can’t let you go So [C]find someone [C7]great but don’t find no one better I [C7]hope you’re happy, but don’t be happier
