intro: As  Eiis  Ds  Eiis

verse 1:
As                 Eiis         Ds           Eiis
i've got a million things going around in my head
      As           Eiis              Ds       Eiis
and i never really paid attention to what you said, no
(same chords)
and now i wish that i would have said goodbye,
but it's too late, and all i do is give and all you do is take

chorus:
As                           Eiis
you've gotta look before you leap
Ds                                     Eiis
and take a good look at your so-called friends
      As                     Eiis
yeah, that's the company you keep
           Ds                    Eiis
you've got words coming from all directions
(same chords)
you gotta look before you leap
and take a look at your so-called friends
yeah, that's the company you keep - they got words, oh yeah

verse 2:
there's a lot fo things that were never said
and if we'd grown up faster then i could have stood up
but - i should have cut you loose a long time ago,
but it's much too late
and all i do is give and all you do is take

repeat chorus

verse 3:
well, there never was a time when you didn't try to lord me over
never was there a time when i felt bad for you
whenever you had the chance, the way i see it
you tried to screw me over
never was there a time when i wasn't there for you


you've gotta look before you leap, oh yeah (2x bass and drums only)

repeat chorus
As              Eiis     As              Eiis
they got words, oh yeah  they got words, oh yeah
As
they keep flying their flags
Eiis                               As
but they're never gonna understand
