Verse 1:
B F
Throwing empty threats
A7 Dm
Across at me in passing and I thought
B F
That you had grown on up
A7 Dm
But now I see you've been acting
B F
So childish and immature
A7 Dm
You hurt me with your words
B F
Called me a friend and played pretend
A7 Dm
But you've got it all backwards
Chorus:
B
And I know
F A7 Dm
That when all you wanna do is hurt me
B
And you'll see
F A7 Dm
There's little reward in stinging me like a bee
B F
I've seen your glare, your nasty looks
A7 Dm
Plotting scare after scare
B F
Don't come for me, I'll fight right back
A7
It's not fun if you don't play fair
Post-Chorus:
B F
Oh me, oh my
A7 Dm
Not gonna let this one by
B F
Oh me, oh my
A7 Dm
Karma's got you high and dry
Verse 2:
B F
Maybe you slipped away
A7 Dm
With your nasty words in the past
B
But oh not I
F
I've taken my share of shots
A7 Dm
And I swear I'll be your last
B F
So unaware and ignorant
A7 Dm
I swear you choose to ignore
B F
The subtle hints and warnings
A7 Dm
That you feel aren't called for
Chorus:
B
And I know
F A7 Dm
That when all you wanna do is hurt me
B
And you'll see
F A7 Dm
There's little reward in stinging me like a bee
B F
I've seen your glare, your nasty looks
A7 Dm
Plotting scare after scare
B F
Don't come for me, I'll fight right back
A7
It's not fun if you don't play fair
Post-Chorus:
B F
Oh me, oh my
A7 Dm
Not gonna let this one by
B F
Oh me, oh my
A7 Dm
Karma's got you high and dry
Verse 3:
B
And I try
F A7 Dm
To make it work
B
And I wanted
F A7
To give you a chance
B F A7 Dm
But you just threw it all away
B F A7
So now, I'm gonna hold my stance
Chorus:
B
And I know
F A7 Dm
That when all you wanna do is hurt me
B
And you'll see
F A7 Dm
There's little reward in stinging me like a bee
B F
I've seen your glare, your nasty looks
A7 Dm
Plotting scare after scare
B F
Don't come for me, I'll fight right back
A7
It's not fun if you don't play fair
B* F* A7*
