Intro:  C#   C#sus2   C#sus4    C#(2X)
C#Once I had a woman with a F#high C#hand
And I let her treat me mighty G#low F#man
C#She made a lover of my F#best C#friend
And now he treats me like a G#has F#been
F#Yes I've had my C#trouble with the G#world around me
F#No, I didn't C#give it my G#best
F#Now I get a C#chance to see some C#sus2better weather
                           F#                           G#    C#Intro 
If you want to stay forever, why don't we talk about it now
Guess my reputation says I'm flaky
Hey my whole situation's kinda shaky
Some people 'round here think I've lost it
They drew the line I stepped across it
Yes, I've had my troubles in some certain circles
No I didn't bring it on myself
Now I get a chance to know they'll eat their words
And if you don't care what you've heard, why don't we talk about it now
SomeG#times I make it all up in my head
There's a Bwhole lotta things that shoulda never been said
But F#this new ground feels solid that I'm standin G#on
I have done some things that might amaze you
But then again most things don't even faze you
You got a way of standin' steadfast
I got a way of runnin' dead last
Yes, I've had my trouble tryin' to start all over
No, I didn't give it all I could
Now, I get a chance to know what love can heal
And I you wanna know the feelin', why don't we talk about it now
Yeah if you wanna know the feelin' why don't we talk about it now

Intro

If you want to stay forever, why don't we talk about it now

Guess my reputation says I'm flaky

Hey my whole situation's kinda shaky

Some people 'round here think I've lost it

They drew the line I stepped across it

Yes, I've had my troubles in some certain circles

No I didn't bring it on myself

Now I get a chance to know they'll eat their words

And if you don't care what you've heard, why don't we talk about it now

Sometimes I make it all up in my head

There's a whole lotta things that shoulda never been said

F# G#

But this new ground feels solid that I'm standin on

I have done some things that might amaze you

But then again most things don't even faze you

You got a way of standin' steadfast

I got a way of runnin' dead last

Yes, I've had my trouble tryin' to start all over

No, I didn't give it all I could

Now, I get a chance to know what love can heal

And I you wanna know the feelin', why don't we talk about it now

Yeah if you wanna know the feelin' why don't we talk about it now
