Em                 C
I was fine right before I met her
G              D
Never hurt and nothing could control me
Em                      C
You know I tried, but I can't regret her
G                    D
She's the first, ask anyone who knows me
Em                   C
Terrified that she'd find my heart and break it
G                D                           Am
Paralyzed by the thought of her with someone else
                      C
(I wish I would've known)
                  D                  Em
I shouldn't have fallen in love with her
          G                        C
It's been nothing but trouble 'til now
                 D                 Em
I shouldn't have fallen in love at all
    G                 C
But I couldn't stop myself
                   D                   Em
What gives you the right to tear up my life?
   G               C
How dare she be so perfect?
         D         Em              G
What did I do to deserve this? Uh-ohooo
                    C
(I'll never let her go)
   D                 Em
How dare she be so perfect?
Em             C     G  D
(Caught in the fire)
Em                        C
I haven't cried since the day she left me
G                           D
'Cause that would mean that I admit it's over
Em                       C
I tell myself that she's trying to test me
G                      D
She'd never leave, she still needs me to hold her
Em                  C
Horrified cause she found my heart and broke it
G                D                        Am
Mortified when I picture her with someone else
                      C
(I wish I would've known)
                  D                  Em
I shouldn't have fallen in love with her
          G                        C
It's been nothing but trouble 'til now
                 D                 Em
I shouldn't have fallen in love at all
    G                 C
But I couldn't stop myself
                   D                   Em
What gives you the right to tear up my life?
   G               C
How dare she be so perfect?
         D         Em              G
What did I do to deserve this? Uh-ohooo
                    C
(I'll never let her go)
   Am              Em
How dare she be so perfect?
Tell me why, tell me why
                 C
(You started the fire)
    D
And played me like that
Em
Tell me why, tell me why
                 C

    G
And played me like that

It's been nothing but trouble 'til now
                 D                 Em
I shouldn't have fallen in love at all
    G                 C
But I couldn't stop myself
(I gotta let her go)
