It Took Me By Surprise

Am             G
I would react badly
                          F       G
To the slightest hint of hesitance

Dm   C

 Am              G
He'd bend awkwardly to suit my mood
              F        G
No word from his defense

Dm   C

 Am              G
I'd cry knowing how my tears
                         F         
Felt like acid burning through his 
   G
skin

Dm   C

        Am           G
Pushed every little button
          F                   G
But the right one that would let me 
in

Dm   C

    Dm             C
Now he's afraid of me
    Dm             C
Now he's afraid of me

[Chorus]
    Em           G
It took me by surprise
    C            G
The hatred in his eyes
      C          D      Am       
I've pushed this man as far as he
       G
 could go
    C             F             
But he lacked the words to let me 
   G
know
     C         G                  
He acted out, now I can see it is 
    D    B7
my fault

[Verse 2]
Am       G
I made changes

That went unnoticed
 F                  G
Sang songs for deaf ears

Dm   C

Am              G
He mistook my silence for punishment
F               G
As it had been all these years

Dm   C

    Am             G              
I'd cry knowingly how my tears 
         F           G
felt like acid burning through his 
skin

Dm   C

    Dm             C
Now he's afraid of me
    Dm             C
Now he's afraid of me

[Chorus]
    Em           G
It took me by surprise
    C            G
The hatred in his eyes
      C          D      Am       
I've pushed this man as far as he
       G
 could go
    C             F             
But he lacked the words to let me 
   G
know
     C         G                  
He acted out, now I can see it is 
    D    B7   C
my fault
