(Verse)
You can Asus2take back all your secrets
We'll divide up all the lies
Keep all the F#mpictures in their frames
Just cut me out, yeah, I'll be fine
Sell the Bmneighbors all my feelings
Go on give away my pride
It's hard to Dlaugh and cry, live and die every Dsus2night
Keep your Asus2rolodex of friends
And all the remnants can be mind
I guess there'll F#mbe no happy endings
When "once upon" is doing time
There's a Bmdifferent kind of meaning now
To livin' on a prayer
DSome don't seem to notice
And the rest don't seem to care
(Chorus)
I tell myself I (Asus2feel no pain)
But I'm feeling the pain F#m(walk away)
Can't walk away
I'm Bmhanging on the ropes of hope
It's getting hard to cope you know
When Dyou're the needle running through my Dsus2veins
I've changed my name to Asus2novocaine

You put my favorite belongings in a box in the garage (let's get this straight)
You burned my F#mfavorite sweats from high school

They say you Ddo the crime, you do the time
It's all so Dsus2clear
