Chords with lyrics
Verse 1:
C majorC
My cards are on the table, yours are in your hands
G+G
Chances are tonight you've already got plans
G minorGm G+G C majorC
And chances are I will talk myself to sleep again
C majorC
You give me just enough attention to keep my hopes too high
G+G
Wishful thoughts forget to mention when something's really not right
G minorGm G+G C majorC C majorC
And I will block out these voices of reason in my head
Chorus:
G+G C majorC C majorC
And the voices say, "You are not the exception
G+G C majorC C majorC
You will never learn your lesson, foolish one

Stop checking your mailbox for confessions of love that ain't never gonna come
G minorGm C majorC
You will take the long way, you will take the long way down"
Verse 2:
C majorC
You know how to keep me waiting, I know how to act like I'm fine
G+G
Don't know what to call this situation but I know I can't call you mine
G minorGm G+G C majorC
And it's delicate, but I will Do my best to seem bulletproof
C majorC
'Cause when my head is on your shoulder it starts thinking you'll come around
G+G
And maybe someday when we're older this is something we'll laugh about
G minorGm G+G C majorC
Over coffee every morning while you're watching the news
Chorus:
G+G C majorC C majorC
But then the voices say, "You are not the exception
G+G C majorC C majorC
You will never learn your lesson, foolish one

You will take the long way, you will take the long way down"

G minorGm G+G
Now I'm sliding down the wall with my head in my hands

Saying, "How could I not see the signs "

Oh, you haven't written me or called
G+G
But goodbye screaming in the silence
C majorC C majorC
And the voices in my head are telling me why
C majorC
'Cause you got her on your arm and me in the wings

I'll get your longing glances but she'll get your ring

And you will say you had the best of intentions
G minorGm G+G C majorC
And maybe I will finally learn my lesson
