Chords with lyrics

Kelly Clarkson - Because of you

A augmentedA      E MajorE    F# minorF#m        E MajorE
I will not make the same mistakes that you did
A augmentedA     E MajorE
I will not let myself
F# minorF#m           E MajorE
Cause my heart so much misery
A augmentedA      E MajorE    F# minorF#m
I will not break the way you did,
   E MajorE
You fell so hard
A augmentedA         E MajorE
I've learned the hard way
  F# minorF#m          E MajorE
To never let it get that far

CHORUS :
      F# minorF#m
Because of you
      D MajorD           E MajorE
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
      F# minorF#m
Because of you
             D MajorD           E MajorE
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
      F# minorF#m
Because of you
        D MajorD         E MajorE
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
      D MajorD
Because of you
    E MajorE
I am afraid

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

[CHORUS]

F# minorF#m
I watched you die
      D MajorD            E MajorE
I heard you cry every night in your sleep
      F# minorF#m
I was so young
        D MajorD           E MajorE
You should have known better than to lean on me
      F# minorF#m       D MajorD
You never thought of anyone else
        E MajorE
You just saw your pain
    F# minorF#m             D MajorD
And now I cry in the middle of the night
    E MajorE
For the same damn thing

CHORUS-MODULATING :
      F# minorF#m
Because of you
     D MajorD              E MajorE
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
     F# minorF#m
Because of you
          D MajorD             E MajorE
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt

AbmAbm
Because of you
         E MajorE        F#F#
I try my hardest just to forget everything
      AbmAbm
Because of you
          E MajorE       F#F#
I don't know how to let anyone else in
      AbmAbm
Because of you
          E MajorE        F#F#
I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty
      AbmAbm
Because of you
 E MajorE   F#F#
I am afraid

AbmAbm  E MajorE  F#F#
Because of you
      AbmAbm  E MajorE  F#F#
Because of you
      AbmAbm ...
Because of you ...
