All C chords should be played as 032013

should be playes as 022003 so the high E string can ring out.
[Verse 1]
Why'd it go Gwrong
When it should have gone Gright
Why do we Crun
When there's no need to Gfight
I can't go Con if I'm not Galone
Or talking to D/F#you
You never Gknew
All the mountains I'd Gclimb
When I'm with Cyou
There's no passing the Gtime
All of my Cdreams
Had been Grealized and taken D/F#away

[Verse 2]
Blame it on Gme
Things that I never Gdid
One hundred and Cthree keep me lying in Gbed
I'm so afrCaid
To hear people Gtalk
These things they Dbelieve
Half truths and Glies
Are drinking like Gwine
The other Csides
Don't get any Gtime
Listen to Cher
Don't miss him at Gall
Or listen to Dme

[Verse 1]

Why'd it go wrong

When it should have gone right

Why do we run

When there's no need to fight

C G

I can't go on if I'm not alone

D/F#

Or talking to you

You never knew

All the mountains I'd climb

When I'm with you

There's no passing the time

All of my dreams

G D/F#

Had been realized and taken away

[Chorus 1]

Oh why do I

Oh well I hope this is my last day

[Verse 2]

Blame it on me

Things that I never did

C G

One hundred and three keep me lying in bed

I'm so afraid

To hear people talk

These things they believe

Half truths and lies

Are drinking like wine

The other sides

Don't get any time

Listen to her

Don't miss him at all

Or listen to me

[Chorus 2]

Oh why do I

Am C

But I don't just want love, I want you

Am G

I see the beach house

Your sweet mouth

But the terrible news

Am G

Is that love

Am C

It's not how it seems on the screens

Am Em D C G

Yeah, real love has problems but it's what's inbetween, that's the best

Am C

The way that she looks when she's dressed

Am G Am

For an all quiet Tuesday

C Am G

Always a blue day with you

An' darlin' I died for the sunrays

That may not have ever been real

In last June

You came after me

G Am7

And begged me to be the one you see

C Em Dsus4 C

But I can't see you anymore

Am I blind

Am7

Or just finding

C G

Out that it's been always been like this

Am7

The last kiss

Was only an accident

G Am7

And I can't get past you

C Em Dsus4 C

And I can't forget secret war

But I pray

Am7

And I stay

No matter the distance

I'll wait

Am7

Oh I'll wait

For Old Eden's resistence

G Am7

Cause we grew together

But oh, Eve, I feel so

Alone
