Intro:   C    Am/C    F  G  
CGive me a minute of your time. And Amlet me explain it and tell you why 
I'm in oFver my head. Now, look in my eyes. I'm afGraid, I'm loosing my mind again. 
CI recall now when they said: "Run as Amfast as you can, girl. He's no good." 
And I sFtayed cause I honestly belive in you and your Gheart. 
Dear, I kFnow it's tGrue and I'm lAmosing you. Cause there's much better girls out there. 
And FI look back and rGegret how I dAmropped my heart again.
And FI wonder, wonder wGhy it's gAmotta be this way, it's always this way. 
And FI gave all I gGot to mAmake you feel special. 
Your kFiss, 
forever on my lGips, 
forever on my sAmkin, 
forever on my mind. 
I'll never fall agaFin like I fell for yGou 
My nightmare caAmme true.
CThis is me swallowing all my pride and my pAmain. And my anger. 
I threw it away. Cause I'm Fwilling to tell you what you're gonna miss when I'm gGone. 
We would've sCnuggled on the sofa and would've watched "Restless". I'm Amnot much for bad things but for
you i'd go aFll the way. 
And we'd dance to our favorite songs and favorite bands like TeGgan and Sara. 
Do you remember? I'd sCleep in your sweater, And keep you safe and sound. 
And Amlove every inch of your body. And kiss all your scFars. 
I'd make you laugh. When you were about to get mGad. 
Now I Fknow it was wGrong when I thAmought I got back in your head. 
And they sFaid "he doesn't deGserve you." 
And I didn't cAmare again, I didn't mind again.
And I Fwonder, wonder Gwhy it's Amgotta be this way, it's always this way. 
And Fi gave all I Ggot to be the Ambest you'll ever have. 
Your blue eFyes, 
forever on my Gmind, 
forever in my hAmead, 
forever in the past. 
We'll be just sFtrangers with mGemories. 
Love will fAmind me, I guess. I gFuess, I guGess, I gAmuess. 
And FI wonder, wonder Gwhy it's Amgotta be this way it's always this way. 
If FI only get Gyou by saying goodAmbye. 
I don't wanna stay. 
You walked aFway. 
Wouldn't give it a tGry 
You changed your mAmind. 
It's alright, I understFand, I dGo. 
I understAmand, I do, I understFand, I Gdo, I wouldn't want mAme, too.

This is me swallowing all my pride and my pain. And my anger.

F G

I threw it away. Cause I'm willing to tell you what you're gonna miss when I'm gone.

C Am

We would've snuggled on the sofa and would've watched "Restless". I'm not much for bad things but for

you i'd go all the way.

And we'd dance to our favorite songs and favorite bands like Tegan and Sara.

Do you remember? I'd sleep in your sweater, And keep you safe and sound.

We'll be just strangers with memories.

Love will find me, I guess. I guess, I guess, I guess.

F G Am

And I wonder, wonder why it's gotta be this way it's always this way.

If I only get you by saying goodbye.

I don't wanna stay.

You walked away.

Wouldn't give it a try

You changed your mind.

F G

It's alright, I understand, I do.

Am F G Am

I understand, I do, I understand, I do, I wouldn't want me, too.
