Chords with lyrics

FF   C majorC   G minorGm   A#A#


FF     C majorC         A#A#
I didn't know what I would find
                     FF
When I went looking for a reason, I know
     C majorC        A#A#
I didn't read between the lines
                G minorGm
And, baby, I've got nowhere to go
                A#A#
I tried to take the road less traveled by
G minorGm                A#A#
 But nothing seems to work the first few times
C majorC
A minorAm I right?

FF         C majorC
So how can I ever try to be better?
 A#A#
Nobody ever lets me in
FF           C majorC
I can still see you, this ain't the best view
A#A#
On the outside looking in
G minorGm
I've been a lot of lonely places
A#A#      C majorC
I've never been on the outside


FF      C majorC        A#A#
You saw me there, but never knew
                 FF
That I would give it all up to be
      C majorC        A#A#
A augmentedA part of this, a part of you
                 G minorGm
And now it's all too late so you see
                A#A#
You could've helped if you had wanted to
G minorGm               A#A#
 But no one notices until it's too
C majorC
Late to do anything


FF        C majorC
How can I ever try to be better?
 A#A#
Nobody ever lets me in
FF           C majorC
I can still see you, this ain't the best view
A#A#
On the outside looking in
G minorGm
I've been a lot of lonely places
A#A#      C majorC
I've never been on the outside


DmDm   FF   A#A#   C majorC

    DmDm   FF   G minorGm    A#A# *
Oh, yeah


FF        C majorC
How can I ever try to be better?
 A#A#
Nobody ever lets me in
FF           C majorC
I can still see you, this ain't the best view
A#A#
On the outside looking in
G minorGm
I've been a lot of lonely places
A#A#      C majorC            FF
I've never been on the outside...  Ohh.

C majorC   G minorGm   A#A#
