 Verse:

 A       Bm
 I woke up and called this morning
 A       Bm
 The tone of your voice was a warning
 C       G       (Riff)
 That you don't care for me anymore

 I made up the bed we sleep in

 I looked at the clock when you creep in

 It's 6 a.m. and I'm alone

 Chorus:
 D       Bm      G
 Did you know, when you go
 A
 It's the perfect ending
 D       Bm      G       A
 To the bad day I was just beginning
 D       Bm      G
 When you go all i know is
 A       C G (Riff)
 You're my favourite mistake

 Verse:

 Well, your friends feel sorry for me

 They watch you pretend to adore me

 But I'm no fool to this game

 Now here comes your secert lover

 She'd be unlike any other

 Until your guilt burns up in flames

 Chorus:

 Did you know when you go

 it's the perfect ending

 To the bad day I've gotten used to spending When you go all I know is

 You're my favourite mistake
 C G
 You're my favourite mistake

 Bridge:
 Bm      Bb
 Well, maybe nothin' lasts forever
 F       G
 Even when you stay together
 Bm      Bb
 I don't need forever after
 F       G
 It's your laughter won't let me go

 So I'm holding on this way


 D Bm G A x3

 C G C G

 D       Bm
 Did you know? could you tell?
 G       A
 You were the only one
 D       Bm      G A
 That I ever loved
 D       Bm      G A     C G
 Now everything's so wrong


 D       Bm      G       A
 Did you see me walking by?
 D       Bm G    A C G
 Did it ever make you cry?


 C G
 You're my favourite mistake
 C G
 You're my favourite mistake
 C G
 You're my favourite mistake

 End with: 
 Bm
