B5     G5     D5     A5
Oh-Oh, Oh-Oh, Oh-Oh, Oh-Oh
B5     G5     D5     A5
Oh-Oh, Oh-Oh, Oh-Oooh


Verse: Here there's only a piano and bass playing,
       but I'll show which chords that are used..

                B5                        G5
Let's talk this over, it's not like we're dead
                   D5                        A5
Was it something I did? Was it something you said?
               B5                    G5
Don't leave me hanging, in a city so dead
           D5                       A5
Held up so high on such a breakable thread


Pre-Chorus:

   G5              A5              G5              A5

E--3-------------------------------3--------------------------|

         G5               A5
You were all the things I thought I knew
    G5                 A5
And I thought we could be


Chorus:
         G5          D5                A5
You were everything, everything that I wanted
            G5           D5                     A5
And we were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it
               G5          D5               A5   B5
And all of the memories so close to me just fade away
E5                                 G5      |-----silence-----|
All this time you were pretending, so much for my happy ending


B5     G5     D5     A5
Oh-Oh, Oh-Oh, Oh-Oh, Oh-Oh
B5     G5     D5     A5
Oh-Oh, Oh-Oh


2nd Verse:

                B5                             G5
You've got your dumb friends, I know what they say
                  D5                    A5
They tell you I'm difficult, but so are they
               B5                         G5
But they don't know me, do they even know you
                   D5                                  A5
All the things you hide from me, all the shit that you do


Pre-Chorus:

All this time you were pretending, so much for my happy ending


Bridge:

A5                              G5
It's nice to know that you were there
                           A5
Thanks for acting like you cared
                                  G5
And making me feel like I was the only one
A5                          B5                            G5
It's nice to know we had it all, thanks for watching as I fall
                            A5
And letting me know we were done

   A5                              G5

Chorus: Start off with a clean sound on the guitar, playing the chord
        once and letting it ring. After that, go back to the distortion
        sound.


       ( . . . . . let ring . . . . .)
       G           D                 A
He was everything, everything that I wanted
            G5           D5                     A5
And we were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it
               G5          D5               A5   B5
And all of the memories so close to me just fade away
E5                                 G5
All this time you were pretending, so much for my happy ending

         G5          D5                A5
You were everything, everything that I wanted
            G5           D5                     A5
And we were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it
               G5          D5               A5   B5
And all of the memories so close to me just fade away
E5                                 G5

Oh-Oh, Oh-Oh, Oh-Oh, Oh-Oh
B5     G5     D5     A5   G5
Oh-Oh, Oh-Oh, Oh-Oh, Oh-Oh
