Am F C G

Pathetic is a word

That describes exactly how I feel

When I see you talk to her

I just wish it wasn't real

Have I ever crossed your mind?

When she falls into your sight

For me it happens all the time

But are you really worth the fight?

(Chorus)

C Em Am F

>> Strumming: DUDU DUDU<<

How am I meant to know

When the chances feel so narrow

How am I meant to see

If it really is me

I don't want to let you go

But I guess I'm gonna have to

Cause' you won't let it show

And I'm not the one for you

(Verse 2)

Am F C G

>> Same strumming as first verse<<

I don't know what to do

And I'm not sure what to say

I hope you see me standing here

And hear what I want to say

Has it ever occurred to you

That what you did was wrong

You said you told the truth

But you were lying all along

(Chorus)

(Bridge x2)

>> Same strumming as chorus (sounds better if you strum quieter but gradually become

louder at the end of the second time<<

I didn't ask to feel this way

I didn't ask to feel this pain

I feel so pathetic

(Chorus x2)
