Never underestimate the power of your ear


D MajorD
I will not make the same mistakes that you did
D MajorD
I will not let myself
D MajorD
Cause my heart so much misery
E minorEm
I will not break the way you did,
     C majorC
You fell so hard
D MajorD
I've learned the hard way
    D MajorD
To never let it get that far

          G+G
Because of you
      D MajorD
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
         G+G
Because of you
                  D MajorD
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
         G+G
Because of you
         E minorEm
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
         G+G
Because of you
     D MajorD
I am afraid


D MajorD
I lose my way
      G+G
And it's not too long before you point it out
       D MajorD
I cannot cry
G+G
Because you know that's weakness in your eyes
          D MajorD
I'm forced to fake
  G+G
A augmentedA smile, a laugh everyday of my life
            D MajorD
My heart can't possibly break
       D MajorD
When it wasn't even whole to start with

          G+G
Because of you
      D MajorD
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
         G+G
Because of you
                  D MajorD
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
         G+G
Because of you
          E minorEm
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
         G+G
Because of you
     D MajorD
I am afraid


           G+G
I watched you die
       A augmentedA
I heard you cry every night in your sleep
       G+G
I was so young
           A augmentedA
You should have known better than to lean on me
        D MajorD
You never thought of anyone else
       A augmentedA
You just saw your pain
      C majorC
And now I cry in the middle of the night
    C#C#
For the same damn thing

          G+G
Because of you
       D MajorD
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
         G+G
Because of you
                D MajorD
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
          G+G
Because of you
           D MajorD
I try my hardest just to forget everything
         G+G
Because of you
       D MajorD
I don't know how to let anyone else in
          G+G
Because of you
              D MajorD
I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty
         E minorEm
Because of you
    D MajorD
I am afraid
         G+G
Because of you
  D MajorD
Ooh, oohhh, ohhh
         G+G
Because of you
  D MajorD
Ooh, oohhh, ohhh
G+G
