Here we are only been a couple of years
Maybe lonBger
Yes it's C#mtrue  IA'm no good at being the sEtrong man
You're stBronger
But I thiC#mnk  maAybe you should take a good Elook
At my feelBings
Can't you C#msee  IA'm another one just like Eyou
A human beG#ing
I don't wAant to have to sacrifice to have to Bget along
I don't eAver want to be the one to say I'm wBrong
                         A    B(silent)          E  
I may hate you sometimes, but I'll always love you
What did you say  it's so hard for me to remember
What you meant
How did it happen  was it preconcieved
Or a complete accident
I still recall  we were once happy together
Smiling faces
But things have changed And now you're only happy when
I remember where my place is
I don't want to have to live up to your expectations
I don't ever want to be the one to end relations
I may hate you sometimes, but I'll always love you
GDo you think you could treat me
DLike somebody special
GI can't be everything to everybody
DCould I at lFeast be something to you?
Don't look so surprised  I'm a little smarter
Than every other weakling
Say no more I know exactly what you're going to say
Without you speaking
A familiar phrase--I've heard it said often before
Please forgive me
Don't be a fool if I can't live with myself
How could you live with me?
Now that I'm filled with emotion you're dispassionate
You only live for yourself while I live to regret
But don't ever think that I could easily forget
Because I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
I said that I would but now I know that I won't
And the chance of being right is looking kind of remote
I may hate you sometimes
But I'll always love you
I may hate you sometimes but I'll always love you

Here we are only been a couple of years

Maybe longer

C#m A E

Yes it's true I'm no good at being the strong man

You're stronger

C#m A E

But I think maybe you should take a good look

At my feelings

C#m A E

Can't you see I'm another one just like you

A human being

A B

I don't want to have to sacrifice to have to get along

A B

I don't ever want to be the one to say I'm wrong

A B E

(silent)

I may hate you sometimes, but I'll always love you

What did you say it's so hard for me to remember

What you meant

How did it happen was it preconcieved

Or a complete accident

I still recall we were once happy together

Smiling faces

But things have changed And now you're only happy when

I remember where my place is

I don't want to have to live up to your expectations

I don't ever want to be the one to end relations

I may hate you sometimes, but I'll always love you

Do you think you could treat me

Like somebody special

I can't be everything to everybody

D F

Could I at least be something to you?

Don't look so surprised I'm a little smarter

Than every other weakling

Say no more I know exactly what you're going to say

Without you speaking

A familiar phrase--I've heard it said often before

Please forgive me

Don't be a fool if I can't live with myself

How could you live with me?

Now that I'm filled with emotion you're dispassionate

You only live for yourself while I live to regret

But don't ever think that I could easily forget

Because I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't

I said that I would but now I know that I won't

And the chance of being right is looking kind of remote

I may hate you sometimes

But I'll always love you

I may hate you sometimes but I'll always love you
