E B
I watch the days rush by me like a river
C#m A
I shouldn't wait, but I'm scared to touch the water
E B
I let the phone ring, why won't you believe me
C#m A
I wait for silence, takes a lot not to answer
E B
All I have to say is
C#m A
You don't deserve me, you don't deserve me
E B
I'm finally walking away
C#m A
Cause you don't deserve me, and you're not worthy
E B
And I won't let you pull me in
C#m
Because I know you're gonna win
A
But the war is over
E B
And I won't fight you anymore
C#m
I have never been so sure
A
Cause the war is over
E B
I used to let you paint a pretty pictures
C#m A
You got me caught up with your "you're my girl forever"
E B
So I forgive you, it felt good when you hold me
C#m
Yeah you owned me
A
Now you wish you had really known me
E B
All I have to say is
C#m A
You don't deserve me, you don't deserve me
E B C#m
I'm finally walking away, cause you only hurt me
A
And you're not worthy
E B
And I won't let you pull me in
C#m
Because I know you're gonna win
A
But the war is over
E B
And I won't fight you anymore
C#m
I have never been so sure
A
Cause the war is over
E B
This is not my surrender
C#m A
I'm not running for cover
E B
I'm right here, I know you see me
C#m A
But your words no longer defeat me
E B
In the night when you're lonely
C#m A
You remember how much you miss me
E B
So you call, well I swear
C#m A
You can try a million times, you'll get the same message
E B
All I have to say is
C#m A
You don't deserve me, you don't deserve me
E B C#m
I'm finally walking away, cause you only hurt me
A
And you're not worthy
E B
And I won't let you pull me in
C#m
Because I know you're gonna win
A
But the war is over
E
The war is over
B
The war is over
C#m
The war is over
A
The war is over
E
The war is over
B
The war is over
C#m
The war is over

The war is over
