Cheating Myself – School Boy Humor
Intro
CWe'll sing just a little bit louder
AAnd we won't stop till she canG't handle it
CWe'll sing just a little bit slower
ASo she'll hang on to every siGngle word
Verse 1
FOver these past few years I feel like I've been cheating myself
AI'm working hard all the time
GYou take the easy way out
FOver these past few years I've tasted who you're going to be
ACandy coated on top
GBut so bitter underneath
Chorus
CUh oh, uh oh He's still watching and
FOh no, Oh no She's undressing 
Ahim with her eyes, wastiGng his time, 
FNo No No (And I Gknow that she'll never change)
Cand uh oh, uh oh, No one said it didn't hurt and
FEverybody knows good things take a little work
ASo don't go giving up on Gthe one, the one you loveF  
Verse 2
Over these past few years we've driven right into a dead end
And we'll keep spinning our tires until one of us gives in
And we're approaching the question that I feel like we should ask
Should we just catch different rides, or just keep fixing the flats?
Chorus
Uh oh, uh oh
He's still watching
Oh no, Oh no
She's undressing him with her eyes, wasting his time, 
No No No (And I know that she'll never change)
and uh oh, uh oh
No one said it didn't hurt and
Everybody knows good things take a little work
So don't go giving up on the one, the one you love
Intro
We'll sing just a little bit louder
And we won't stop till she can't handle it
We'll sing just a little bit slower
So she'll hang on to every single word
Bridge
So close your eyes girl, Aand tell me what you seGeF  
The lives that wAe've created, were all bGecause of meF  
So listen closely girl, Acause our future iGs at stakeF  
The reason we are endingA: is because I give, you GtakeF  
Close your eyes, Aand tell me whaGt you seeF  
A probleAm that's unchanging, a pGast that's hauntFing meG
