Intro: G D Em7 Cadd9

verse 1
G                                      D
I bet you thought I was a better man, now you know the truth
               Em7                                                Cadd9
I've been out singing the songs about the wrong outcome guess it finally got through to you
    G                                      D
She left her stain on the linens I really thought you would never tell
     Em7                                       Cadd9
No I don't expect to be forgiven cause I'm so wrapped up in myself


        D                                                      Em7
And I deserve everything for all the work I've done even if I lose everybody that I've ever loved
          Cadd9                                    G
They just don't understand what it takes to be me
            D                                                          Em7
And I don't know who they are but I will prove them wrong probably my friends I'm suspicious of everyone
        Cadd9
I would give anything just for them to see what it takes to be me

G D Em7 Cadd9

verse 2
        G                              D
I don't know who I am anymore tell me what have I become

There is something I discovered that attracts lots of lovers while my wife and kids are home
      G                                             D
You'd think I'd learn my lesson yeah you'd think I'd stop running around
       Em7                                Cadd9
Oh but every time that it happens I tell myself that they'll never find out


        D                                                      Em7
And I deserve everything for all the work I've done even if I lose everybody that I've ever loved
          Cadd9                                    G
They just don't understand what it takes to be me

And I don't know who they are but I will prove them wrong probably my friends I'm suspicious of everyone
        Cadd9
I would give anything just for them to see what it takes to be me
