// notes: this was kinda hard song to 'tab', required few listening times, 
couldn't write it  "I'll get it wrong, 'til I get it right" :) Feel free to add 
some sus's, 7's, add9/11's to make it more deep.

        Dm|        Dm|        Dm|        Dm  
Watch me get it get it wrong at the top of my lungs
While you front for every one, while you tip toe for fun
I can scream until your ears bleed, you're gonna never hear me
You hear what you want, but you never wanted me
[x2]
        Dm|        Dm|        Bb|        C  
Careful, you don't wanna mess up, do you?
Fake brave face, I see right through you
Standing in place 'cause
Denial is the way to go, at least that's what you told me, so
Cover you ears when you don't wanna know
For whatever you hear you're held responsible
        Gm|    Dm  
Are you scared you might open your mouth
         C|    Dm  
And feel the horror if nothing comes out?
        Gm|    Dm  
Do you think you're safe, frozen in place?
         C|    Dm  
Run for cover just in case
        Dm|    Bsus2  
I am not afraid to fall
         F|    C  
You can watch me lose it all
        Dm|    Asus4  
I'll get it wrong, 'til I get it right
        Bb|      Csus4  C  
At least I'm making scenes in the meantime
Watch me, watch me
        Dm|        Dm|        Dm|        Dm  
Watch me get it get it wrong at the top of my lungs
While you front for every one, while you tip toe for fun
I can scream until your ears bleed, you're gonna never hear me
You hear what you want, but you never wanted me
        Dm|        Dm|        Bb|        C  
All eyes on you, we're watching you
It's too bad you're too stuck to move
Too bad you wouldn't know what to do
If the right thing walked right up to you
It's none steps forward, none steps back
No harm, no foul, you play like that?
Your game sucks, you need a new one
Your game sucks, make a new one up
Up the ante, up the drive,
Slow down - is this how you feel inside?
Torn in the middle like you can't decide,
Can't step up to save your life
I'm calling it, you're full of shhh
More scared to make noise than you care to admit
        Gm|    Dm  
Are you scared you might open your mouth
         C|    Dm  
And feel the horror if nothing comes out?
        Gm|    Dm  
Do you think you're safe, frozen in place?
         C|    Dm  
Run for cover just in case
        Dm|    Bsus2  
I am not afraid to fall
         F|    C  
You can watch me lose it all
        Dm|    Asus4  
I'll get it wrong, 'til I get it right
        Bb|      Csus4  C  
At least I'm making scenes in the meantime
[x2]
Watch me, watch me
Riff:  C5   D5   C5   D5   C5   D5   A5  Bb5  
No time left to play it safe, no time to bend
The worst mistake you'll ever make is trying to blend
[x2]
        Gm|    Dm  
Are you scared you might open your mouth
         C|    Dm  
And feel the horror if nothing comes out?
        Gm|    Dm  
Do you think you're safe, frozen in place?
         C|    Dm  
Run for cover just in case
        Dm|    Bsus2  
I am not afraid to fall
         F|    C  
You can watch me lose it all
        Dm|    Asus4  
I'll get it wrong, 'til I get it right
