Verse
[Amaj7]
I don't want to be your cigarette
[G#aug]
I don't want to be your ashtray
[G#m]
I don't want to be your doormat, don't want to be ignored
[F#m]
All o' sudden you're not into me
[Amaj7]
And maybe it's not deliberate
[G#aug]
And I know you never asked me
[G#m]
I just gotta put it out there
[F#m]
I don’t put myself out there usually I stay tucked away
Bridge
[Amaj7]
Cause I was a loner until I met you
[G#aug] [G#m]
And I let you in after all the persuasion
[F#m]
Mind games, manipulations
Chorus
[Amaj7]
That's why I'd rather be a loner
[G#]
Yeah I'd rather be alone
[G#m]
I don't even want to know ya
[F#m]
I don't want to be known
[Amaj7]
Cause I'd rather be a loner
[G#]
I'd much rather be alone
[G#m]
Baby it was nice to know ya
[F#m]
Packing up and leaving home
Verse
[Amaj7]
No I don't want to be your cigarette
[G#aug]
Use me up then toss me, step on me
[G#m]
I don't want to be an option
[F#m]
Avoidin' interactions cause I just wanna get away
[Amaj7]
And maybe you got a full plate
[G#aug]
Know I'm cookin' something better
[G#m]
but if you don't want me now
boy then I don't want you later
[F#m]
Don't try to come eat with me
Bridge
[Amaj7]
Cause I was a loner until I met you
[G#aug] [G#m]
And I let you in after all the persuasion
[F#m]
headaches and allegations
Chorus
[Amaj7]
That's why I'd rather be a loner
[G#]
Yeah I'd rather be alone
[G#m]

I don't want to be known
[Amaj7]
