Verse 1:
[F#] 2-4-4-3-0-0/2-4-4-3-0-X You're so careless, careless
How did you get so ungrateful?
[Dmaj7] X-5-4-2-2-2 You treat me like I'm a disease,
Oh, and it's been killing me
[F#] Chances are, you never even cared at all
[Dmaj7] I'm sure that you had your reasons
But I'll never get to hear the
Bridge:
[B] X-2-4-4-4-X truth
[Dmaj7] Disguised in / [F#m] X-4-4-2-2-2 all your [E] 0-2-2-1-0-0 alibis
[Dmaj7] It's a tradition, practiced,
[B or Bm?] every time you say goodbye
Chorus:
[F#m] 2-4-4-2-2-2 I've tried so [E] hard
to be what you [Bm] X-2-4-4-3-(0) needed
Your [D] X-5-7-7-7-X imaginary [Emaj6] 0-2-2-1-2-0 enemy
[F#m} I've tried for so [E] long
to make you [Bm] believe it
That [D] I am not the [E] enemy
Verse 2:
[F#] Slipshod cavalier,
I can't stand to see those things that
[Dmaj7] You have taken for granted
Thrown away everything you've been handed
[F#] Too much all at once that's how you got so ungrateful
[Dmaj7] All you saw was the burden
Standing beside all your blessed
Bridge:
[B]truths
[Dmaj7] Disguised in [F#m] all your alibis
[Dmaj7] It's a tradition, practiced,
[B/Bm]every time you say goodbye
Chorus (same as above, listen for chord changes but make your version unique hear, throw
in a solo):
I've tried so hard
to be what you needed
Your imaginary enemy
I've tried for so long
to make you believe it
That I am not the enemy
Imaginary enemy
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Alright, yeah
I've tried so hard
to be what you needed
Your imaginary enemy
I've tried for so long
to make you believe it
That I am not the enemy
Imaginary enemy
