A E F#m E
I will not make the same mistakes that you did
A E
I will not let myself
F#m E
Cause my heart so much misery
A E F#m
I will not break the way you did,
E
You fell so hard
A E
I've learned the hard way
F#m E
To never let it get that far
CHORUS :
F#m
Because of you
D E
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
F#m
Because of you
D E
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
F#m
Because of you
D E
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
D
Because of you
E
I am afraid
A E
I lose my way
F#m E
And it's not too long before you point it out
A E
I cannot cry
F#m E A
Because you know that's weakness in your eyes
A E
I'm forced to fake
F#m E A
A smile, a laugh everyday of my life
A E
My heart can't possibly break
F#m E
When it wasn't even whole to start with
[CHORUS]
F#m

I watched you die
D E
I heard you cry every night in your sleep
F#m
I was so young
D E
You should have known better than to lean on me
F#m D
You never thought of anyone else
E
You just saw your pain
F#m D
And now I cry in the middle of the night
E
For the same damn thing
