[Intro] 
Eb
[Verse 1]
EbI can hear your laugh
EbIt's ringing through the hallways
EbI can see your smile
EbIt's what gets me through my hard days
EbAnd your words was suppose 
EbTo get me through my heartache, 
EbBefore my heartbreak
  CmThere's an emptiEbness that only few ever fBbeel
And I somehow missed 
The meaning of love that is Cmreal
And it compliEbments my scars that will never hBbeal
[Chorus]
Maybe I didn't deCmserve youEb  
Maybe I just couldn't Bbcure you
They told me that I didn't Cmhurt youEb  
Why do I feel like I Bbturned you?
Maybe I don't underCmstand itEb  
Tell me is this how you Bbplanned it?
Did you see us so CmstrandedEb  
Maybe I'm to much too Bbmanage
[Verse 2]
EbAnd if you weren't gonna guide me
EbWhy bring me into the light?
EbMust have done something 
EbTo make you want to run and hide
EbWhy oh why didn't you just live your life?
  CmAnd every girl needs a moEbther
And damn it I needed Bbyou
Instead you duck for cover
And you ran from the trCmuth
And like kids Ebdo
You waited around for Bbproof
[Chorus]
Maybe I didn't deCmserve youEb  
Maybe I just couldn't Bbcure you
They told me that I didn't Cmhurt youEb  
Why do I feel like I Bbturned you?
Maybe I don't underCmstand itEb  
Tell me is this how you Bbplanned it?
Did you see us so CmstrandedEb  
Maybe I'm to much too Bbmanage
BbMaybe I didn't deserve you

[Intro]

[Verse 1]

I can hear your laugh

It's ringing through the hallways

I can see your smile

It's what gets me through my hard days

And your words was suppose

To get me through my heartache,

Before my heartbreak

Cm Eb Bb

There's an emptiness that only few ever feel

And I somehow missed

The meaning of love that is real

Eb Bb

And it compliments my scars that will never heal

[Chorus]

Cm Eb

Maybe I didn't deserve you

Maybe I just couldn't cure you

Cm Eb

They told me that I didn't hurt you

Why do I feel like I turned you?

Cm Eb

Maybe I don't understand it

Tell me is this how you planned it?

Cm Eb

Did you see us so stranded

Maybe I'm to much too manage

[Verse 2]

And if you weren't gonna guide me

Why bring me into the light?

Must have done something

To make you want to run and hide

Why oh why didn't you just live your life?

Cm Eb

And every girl needs a mother

And damn it I needed you

Instead you duck for cover

And you ran from the truth

And like kids do

You waited around for proof

[Chorus]

Cm Eb

Maybe I didn't deserve you

Maybe I just couldn't cure you

Cm Eb

They told me that I didn't hurt you

Why do I feel like I turned you?

Cm Eb

Maybe I don't understand it

Tell me is this how you planned it?

Cm Eb

Did you see us so stranded

Maybe I'm to much too manage

Maybe I didn't deserve you
