[Intro 1]
[Fm][Em][Fm][Gsus4][G]

[Verse 1]
[C]Sometimes
you lose your head
[B]Think of all the stupid [Em]thing
[Bm]s you've said[B][Bm]
[Bb]Pouring out of your mouth
Like rain through a [A]broken
[Dm]windowpane
Nobody [A]made you [Faug]do it[F]
There's a hoop and [Faug]you
jump [A]through [Dm]it
You made this mess all by [Faug]your sel[G]f
What did you say?
[C]I thought I said everything
there [Em]was for me to say
How could you [Fm]know?
I looked into her eyes,
I [C]thought they were telling me [G]so
Now [C]I don't want to be
[Em]your cause for sympathy
I [Fm]took my chances, [Em]eyes wide open
[Fm]Stayed too long and the spell
[G]was bro[C]ken
Nobody wants to see
[B]The mess you be[Bm]come so easily
[Bb]Crawling around and singing
your sad songs
[A]Late into the [Dm]night
Must be [Faug]the words you're choosing
[F]The unconvincing smile you[Dm]'re usi[A]ng[Dm]
Try and try again, you can't get it [G]right
What did you do?
[C]I poured my heart out til my
[Em]words filled the room
How did it [Fm]go?
She smiled and took my hand,
said it's [C]all just a little too [G]soon.
Now [C]I don't want to be
[Em]your cause for sympathy
[Fm]Save your tears,
I [Em]never earned them
[Fm]Lessons are there,
but [G]I never learn them at a[C]ll[Em][Fm][Em][Fm][G]
[C]Every night the same old game
[G]Fumbling [Bm]around for some
stranger's [G]name
Or [Bb]going out of your mind
Waiting for the [A]phone to finally ring
[Dm]I know life can be so me[Faug]ssy
[F]But you can't spend all your time
[Dm]conf[Faug]essing[Dm]
Try saving something [Faug]for
[C]your[G]self
What did you say?
[C]I thought I said everything
there [Em]was for me to say
How could you [Fm]know?
I looked into her crying eye[C]s,
they were telling me [G]so
[C]Now I don't want to be
[Em]your cause for sympathy
[Fm]Save your breath, I [Em]nev er listen
You [Fm]think I don't
[G]know something's missing
But [C]now I'll wait and see
[Em]How it all turns out for me
It's [Fm]not as painful [Em]as they tell you
[Fm]Some success in [Em]every failure
[Fm]Now I know I can h[Em]andle the pain
I'll [Fm]stand here waiting,
[G]hope it all [G]happens again
