[Intro]
---------------------
G | D 

[Verse 1]
---------------------
Am C            G                              D
    I can't lie, it feels nice that you're calling
          Am                           C
You sound sad and alone, and you're stalling
             G                                D
And for once, I don't care about what you want
                       Am
As long as we keep talking
C                       G                        D
 I mean, you gotta admit the history's kind of unmatched
             Am
Asian Calvinism, we made it out of that
C                    G
 Well, whether we're free of will or predestined
             D
Clearly, I've not learned my lesson even now
Am
  Hope He doesn't strike me down

[Pre-Chorus (1)]
---------------------
C       C              D
 The Goo Goo Dolls are dead to me
       G    D       Em
The way you should be, too
G       C
But you bring them up
          D
Along with how much I fucking miss you

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
G                   D                                Am
 Maybe I'm just not better than this, I haven't tried
                    C                            G
Maybe life's less romantic when I don't wanna die
                     D
You'd think I'd be a fast learner
            Am                         C              G
But guess I won't ever mind crisping up on your backburner

[Post-Chorus (1)]
---------------------
D
 Your backburner
Am
  Your backburner

[Verse 2]
---------------------
C           G                            D
 It's pathetic, but at least you are, too
                       Am
I don't know what to do
                           C
I don't like anyone except sometimes you
                    G
And now you're sounding like a hurt puppy
           D
You look ugly when you cry
               Am
But I'm the one  you think to call
                C                                   G
How do you feel lucky and appalled at the same time?
                        D
After everything you put me through
                       Am            C
I somehow still believe  in you, ohoh

[Pre-Chorus (2)]
---------------------
    C           D
But I know in a week or so
       G        D     Em     G         C
You'll fade away    again  And I wish that I cared
             D
Hey, are you still there?
Good

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
G                   D                                Am
 Maybe I'm just not better than this, I haven't tried
                            C                                   G
'Cause maybe you'll finally choose me after you've had more time
                  D
I thought I was a fast learner
            Am                            C
But guess I won't ever mind, guess I won't ever mind
G                 D                             Am
 Maybe I blame my mother bleeding into my stride
                C                            G
Maybe it was my father and his wandering eyes
                  D
I'll always be in your corner
         Am                            C                   G
'Cause I don't feel alive 'til I'm burnin' on your backburner

[Post-Chorus (2)]
---------------------
   D      Am                           C                   G
Oh, and I know that it's sad that I settle for the backburner
   D        Am                          C               C
Oh, guess I won't ever mind crisping up on your backburner

[Outro]
---------------------
Oh, as long as you still think of me, oh, ohoh
