Critical Mistake Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
You have [Em]sixteen new messages
First new [G]message:
Why do I even bother calling you
I've called [Em]you sixteen times today
And I [G]know you've been online
So stop ignoring [Em]me
I made a [C]critical mis

[Verse 2]
[G]take in a
[Em]momentary lapse [C]of judgement
[G]Now[Em] you've c[C]alled me up again[G]
To remind me of the ways I fucked [Em]up
So then [C]I'll take all the [G]blame
It [D]all just feels the same
[Em]And we move [C]on[G][D]
[Em]Then I scr[C]ew it up again[G]
Are you [D]noticing a trend?
[Em]Should I go on[C]?[G][D]
[Em]So I said
[C]I could

[Verse 3]
[G]be [D]everything you [Em]need
[C]If you could [G]learn [D]to be someone [Em]else
[C]I keep try[G]ing[D] to bridge the dis[Em]tance
[C]You've been thi[G]nking[D]
about your[Em]self[C]
[G]It's the[Em] way you[D] want the world to be[C]
[G]It's the[Em] way you want the [D]world to be
I'm the [C]sinner, you're a saint

[Verse 4]
[G]
You will always [D]have your [Em]way
Will you [C]let [G]go?[Em]
But when [C]a cynic and
[G]a snake come together
[Em]It could take a [C]mira[G]cle
[Em]But it only [C]lasts so long[G]
I [D]know it won't be [Em]long 'till [C]I screw up
[G]Can[D] we[Em] start i[C]t all again[G]
[D]And go back [Em]to when
we were [C]both wrong?
[G]'Cause we're bot[D]h wrong
[Em]So I said
[C]I could

[Verse 5]
[G]be [D]everything you [Em]need
[C]If you could [G]learn [D]to be someone [Em]else
[C]I keep try[G]ing to bri[D]dge the dis[Em]tance
[C]You've been thi[G]nking[D] about you[Em]rself[C]
[G]It's the[Em] way you[D] want
the world to [C]be[G]
It's [Em]the way you want [D]the world to be
And it all [C]just seemed

[Verse 6]
too per
[Gaug]fect to be tru[Em]e
There's nothing per[D]fect
about me [C]and you
And [Gaug]I tried to see the be[Em]st
But I saw right [D]through you
And [C]I know I could be [G]better
But you [Em]won't let me forget
[D]That it alway[C]s seemed so perfect
[G]when I pla[Em]yed it in my head
[D]You

[Verse 7]
made a [C]critical mis[G]take in a moment
[Em]ary lapse [G]of j[Em]udgement
Now I'm [C]walking out [G]the door
Like [D]all the times before
[Em]Guess I fu[C]cked up[G][Em][Am]
So [C]I said

[Verse 8]
I could [G]be [D]everything you [Em]need
[C]If you could [G]learn [D]to be someone [Em]else
[C]I keep try[G]ing to bri[D]dge the dis[Em]tance
[C]You've been thi[G]nking[D]
about your[Em]self[C]
[G]It's the[Em] way you[D] want the world to be[C]
[G]It's the[Em] way you want the [D]world to be
[C]I could be [G]eve[Em]rything you[D] need
[C]If you could [G]learn [Em]to be s[D]omeone else
