Intro: [Em] [ Cadd9 D]x2
[Verse 1]
[G] I will not [D/F#]make the [Em]same mistakes that you did[D/F#],
[G] I will no[D/F#]t let myself [Em]cause my heart so much misery[D/F#].
[G] I will not[D/F#] break the [Em]way you did, you fell so hard[D/F],[#]
[G] I've learned the[D/F#] hard way to n[Em]ever let it get that [D]far...
[Cborus]
Because of [Em]you I never str[Cadd9]ay too far from the s[D]idewalk,
because of [Em]you I learned to play on the [Cadd9]safe side so I do[D]n't get hurt,
because of [Cadd9]you I find it hard to t[G]rust not only m[D]e, but everyone around me,
because of [Cadd9]you, I am af[D]raid...
[Verse 2]
[G] I lose my[D/F#] way, and its [Em]not too long before you [D/F#]point it ou[G]t,
[G] I cannot[D/F#] cry, b[Em]ecause you know that's weakness[D/F#] in your ey[G]es;
[G] I'm forced to[D/F#] fake, a [Em]smile, a laugh, every[D/F#]day of my l[G]ife.
[G] My heart can't[D/F#] possibly break, when it w[Em]asn't even whole to s[D]tart with...
[Cborus]
Because [Em]of you I never [Cadd9]stray too far from th[D]e sidewalk,
because of [Em]you I learned to play on the [Cadd9]safe side so I do[D]n't get hurt,
because of [Cadd9]you I find it hard to t[G]rust not only me, b[D]ut everyone around me,
Because of [Cadd9]you, I am af[D]raid...
[Bridge]
I watched you [Bm]die, I heard you [Em]cry every night in y[D]our sleep...
I was so [Bm]young, you should have k[Em]nown better than to [D]lean on me.
You never t[Bm]hought of anyone e[Em]lse, you just saw y[D]our pain,
and now I [Bm]cry in the middle of the [Em]night, for the [D]same damn thing...

Because of [Em]you I try my hardest[Cadd9] just to forget e[D]verything,
