Everything That Isn't Me Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][Em][G][C]

[Verse 1]
[C]
I could have been a better broth[Em]er
I could have been a better [G]son
I'm sorry for the pain I caused [C]you
And all the worries that I gave you, [C]mom
Every time there was a [Em]riot
I couldn't ever stay at [G]home
I had to go and join the [C]fire

[Chorus 1]
You and dad said no, but I had to go
[C]
You were still the best of moth[D]ers
And now I know the fear you felt for [G]me
You told me to stay off the streets [Em]'cause
You didn't like me out there selling [C]weed
I don't regret the things I've [D]done
They made me what I am, you [Bm]see
I can't apologize for[Em]ever

[Verse 2]
For everything that isn't me
[C]
I could have been a better broth[Em]er
I could have been a better [G]friend
I hope you know how much I love [C]you
And if you don't, I really understand
[C]
I used to be so bloody sel[Em]fish
I tried to make it to the top, you [G]see
The only thing I didn't get [C]is

[Chorus 2]
You've always given me the help I need
[C]
I should have been a better broth[D]er
It's easy now to see it clear
[Bm]I'm sorry that I hurt you all and[Em]
I'm sorry that I
caused you all so many [C]tears
I could apologize forever
[D]For everything I couldn't be[Bm]
I can't apologize for[Em]ever

[Interlude 1]
For everything that isn't me
[C][Em][G][C]

[Verse 3]
[C]
I could have been a better [Em]lover
I could have been a better [G]man
I'm sorry that I work so much [C]and
The fact that I never really have a [C]plan
I'm sorry, oh, I'm so [Em]sorry
That it's so hard to say this word
[G]And even with
all the things we've [C]been through

[Chorus 3]
Sometimes I think that I will never learn
[C]
I could have been a better [D]lover
I could have been a better man
[Bm]I'm gonna be a better father[Em]
Hell, I'm doing everything I [C]can
And I will live with this for[D]ever
With everything I couldn't [Bm]be
I can't apologize for[Em]ever

[Outro 1]
For everything that isn't me
[C]
I could have been a better broth[D]er
I could have been a better [G]son
I could have been a better [C]lover
But in the [Em]end, I'm your [D]only [G]one
