Whispers tell a lie
Eb               F
Starts a rumor, makes you cry
Gm
It's out there poster-sized
Eb              F

I'd never ever take you back

I'd walk on fire and broken glass

Let's get nothing I don't love?

You got nothing that I need
 Eb             F
Losing you has set me free yeah

I never really liked you anyway

I'm stronger than I ever, stronger than I ever was

You know you're not messing with me

Stronger than I ever was (X4)

(talked while playing Gm-Eb-F)
I wasted a lot of years on this foolishness
Running behind you, still not know it
See you ain't nothing
And I'm everything
And I'm stronger than I ever was because I dropped you
Take that
