[Verse 1]
B
     I was around when the bridge got burned, I take a lesson but I never learn
      E                               G#m                F#
And I walk my way, and I don't look back, they say it's not that bad man,
F#                                          B
I think I'm running out of ways to believe me

[Verse 2]
B
So I took apart my television, I'd come to think I need a bigger one
       E                               G#m                     F#
When I look back now, had we lost our heads, you could tell I'm slipping backwards
F#                                               B
By the way I could not understand what the man said

[Chorus]
E                                     B                                      E
And you were never there when I was a beaten broken person, knocking at your door
E                                  D#m       E            B
I took you for a better friend but I've been wrong before

[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
B
I recommend what the old man said, "you gotta do it if you want to get ahead"
           E                                               G#m
But if you want to get a heart you got to give yours to me
                 F#
And I think I'm slipping backwards
F#                                              B
So you can't tell me to be there if you won't be

[Chorus]
E                                 B                                      E
You were never there when I was a beaten broken person, knocking at your door
E                                  D#m       E            B
I took you for a better friend but I've been wrong before
