I tGold you once, I told you twice
I’m Bmnever gonna take your advice
I hCad a brand new start and you were oGut
And Gall the while I was to you

You Emset me up to fDall
[Chorus]
CGlara what came Bmover you?
You were Changin' on my every move
AmTied me down just to cut me loose
Oh CGlara, what was Bmwrong with you?
You were mCore than I could ever take

The Bmone that you could never be
In the mCorning bliss I would beat the walls

I told you once, I told you twice

I’m never gonna take your advice

I played along, so you left me to live in your wake

[Verse 2]

You had me down, my cards were in

You know the game you play to win

Hold me while I fall
