Lyrics

[Intro]
Nashville, we have one more song for you guys
And we're celebrating tonight
That you guys made this my first ever gold record
So unreal, if you guys know it, sing it with me, c'mon
[Verse 1]
I know the rules of a breakup
Delete your number and ruin your name
Baby, we can make a mess and make up
Lie about it if I stay at your place
[PreChorus]
We could both be angry
Hate you and you hate me
We could play that game
And stay the same
[Chorus]
But what if we don't have to choose?
What if no one has to lose?
I hope you meet somebody who
Loves you like I couldn't do
'Cause, baby, you and me were never right
But we ain't gotta be on different sides
So what if we just told the truth?
Yeah, goodbye looks good on you
And it looks good on me too
[PostChorus]
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
C'mon
[Verse 2]
We ain't gotta make a heartbreak harder
You ain't gotta make your mama hate me
I ain't gotta be a midtown martyr
I don't need somebody else to save me
[PreChorus]
We can still have the same friends
We can chill at the same bar
I just want you happy and hope you are
[Chorus]
But what if we don't have to choose?
What if no one has to lose?
I hope you meet somebody who
Loves you like I couldn't do
'Cause, baby, you and me were never right
But we ain't gotta be on different sides
So what if we just told the truth?
Yeah, goodbye looks good on you
And it looks good on me too, yeah
[Instrumental]
We could both be angry
Hate you and you hate me
We could play that game
But not today, yeah
[Chorus]
What if we don't have to choose?
What if no one has to lose?
Hope you meet somebody who
Loves you like I couldn't do, no
Baby, you and me were never right
But we ain't gotta be on different sides
So what if we just told the truth?
Yeah, goodbye looks good on you
And it looks good on me too
[PostChorus]
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
It looks good on me too
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
It looks good on me too
[Outro]
Nashville
You guys are absolutely incredible
I will never forget tonight
My first show at the Ryman
We can't wait to come back
We'll see y'all next time
Cheers, fam
