Intro: G
Verse 1:
G D Em
No you never were one for resting easy were ya
C G D
So much that when they told me how you left us here behind
G D Em
That I didn�t even bat an eye believing

In words I should have said to make you stay but couldn�t find

In just hoped that road would one day watch you walk right back to me

�till then I�ll be

Jet black and jealous
Verse 2:
And I�ll dare not let �em know that now you�re gone
How I�ll still be a fool for the way we used to be
I just keep laughin� out loud and play along
As if I traded you for one the way you traded me
�Cause with your beat up bag and your laced up shoes
You walked right out the door
And I hit the floor
Jet black and jealous
Chorus:
G D/F# Em D C G D
Tell me how was I to know
G G/F# Em D C G D
Tell me how can I let go
C D
Well I know wherever you are tonight
G D C
You look just like a queen
D
Stealing the scene
C G
Jet black and jealous
G D/F# Em D C G D (x2)
Verse 3:
And I bet by now you�re rolling through Pittsburgh
Watching the rain in passing headlights
From some roadside corner booth
Still smiling �bout the choices that you made
Hoping the clouds are breaking up ahead
Skies blue instead of grey
But if you get out there and you find
That it�s not what you thought it�d be, remember me
Jet black and jealous
Repeat chorus
C D
Yeah if you get out there and you find
G D C D
That it�s not what you thought it�d be, come back to me
G D/F# Em D C G D
Tell me how
Tell me how was I to know
Tell me how was I to know
End: Fade out (I end on a G)
