Intro 1
(F minor) (E minor) (F minor) (Gsus4) (G major)
Verse 1
(C major) Sometimes
you lose your head
Think (B major) of all the stupid (E minor) thing
(B minor) s you've (B major) said (B minor)
(B flat major) Pouring out of your mouth
Like rain through a broken (A major)
windowpane (D minor)
Nobody made (A major) you do (Faug) (F major) it
There's a hoop and you (Faug)
jump through (A major) (D minor) it
You made this mess all by your (Faug) (G major) self
What did you say?
(C major) I thought I said everything
there was (E minor) for me to say
How could you know? (F minor)
I looked into her eyes,
I thought (C major) they were telling me so (G major)
Now I (C major) don't want to be
(E minor) your cause for sympathy
I (F minor) took my chances, eyes (E minor) wide open
Stayed (F minor) too long and the spell
(G major) was broken (C major)
Nobody wants to see
The mess (B major) you be (B minor) come so easily
Crawling (B flat major) around and singing
your sad songs
(A major) Late into the night (D minor)
Must be the word (Faug) s you're choosing
(F major) The unconvincing smile (D minor) you're (A major) us (D minor) ing
Try and try again, you can't get it right (G major)
What did you do?
(C major) I poured my heart out til my
words (E minor) filled the room
How did it go? (F minor)
She smiled and took my hand,
said it's all (C major) just a little too soon. (G major)
Now I (C major) don't want to be
(E minor) your cause for sympathy
Save (F minor) your tears,
I never (E minor) earned them
(F minor) Lessons are there,
but I (G major) never learn them at all (C major) (E minor) (F minor) (E minor) (F minor) (G major)
(C major) Every night the same old game
(G major) Fumbling around (B minor) for some
stranger's name (G major)
Or (B flat major) going out of your mind
Waiting for the phone (A major) to finally ring
I (D minor) know life can be so messy (Faug)
But you can (F major) 't spend all your time
(D minor) (Faug) confessing (D minor)
Try saving something for (Faug)
your (C major) self (G major)
What did you say?
(C major) I thought I said everything
there was (E minor) for me to say
How could you know? (F minor)
I looked into her crying eye (C major) s,
they were telling me so (G major)
Now I (C major) don't want to be
(E minor) your cause for sympathy
Save (F minor) your breath, I nev (E minor) er listen
You (F minor) think I don't
know something's (G major) missing
But now (C major) I'll wait and see
(E minor) How it all turns out for me
It's (F minor) not as painful as (E minor) they tell you
Some (F minor) success in every (E minor) failure
(F minor) Now I know I can handle (E minor) the pain
I'll stand (F minor) here waiting,
(G major) hope it all (G major) happens again
