C
Who knew it'd be so easy
G
To lose yourself completely
Am                               F
Forever stuck in your old ways
C
I saw you in the limelight
G
Your flaws I turned a blind guy
Am                                        F
Cuz you swore you'd always be okay

                      C
But you keep hurting yourself and you just can't see
G
You put out your fires with gasoline
Am
But it pours on me
F
And I'm tired of the mess you leave

C
If I knew that through the years you'd be falling
G
I would say goodbye to you darling
Am
So I'd never have to face
F
The hollow shell you masquerade
C
And if I knew the words that you sold me
G
Covered up the truth you've been holding
Am                    Dm Am
I would learn to let you go
F                  C
Before we traveled down this road
Dm                         F
Now all I have is ignorance to blame
                           C
But I guess that was my mistake


Trapped by your limitations
G
A bright potential wasted
Am           G           F
On fantasies you live to chase
                    C
You say that nobody else will understand
G
Push them away when you get the chance
Am
And I'm the last to stay
C   F
But I just can't watch as you fade away

C
If I knew that through the years you'd be falling
G
I would say goodbye to you darling
Am
So I'd never have to face
F
The hollow shell you masquerade
C
And if I knew the words that you sold me
G
Covered up the truth you've been holding
Am                    Dm Am
I would learn to let you go
F                  C
Before we traveled down this road
Am        C                 F
Now all I have is ignorance to blame
                           C
But I guess that was my mistake

Dm
And I hope you find the missing pieces
F
And love yourself without a reason
C                                    G
Cuz right now we're just in a losing game whoa
Dm                  F         C
And I'm sorry that I couldn't save ya
F
From all your self inflicted danger
C
I wish you the best but it's too late

C
If I knew that through the years you'd be falling
G
I would say goodbye to you darling
Am F#m
So I'd never feel the pain
F
Of watching us go down the drain

C
I wish I knew the words that you sold me
G                                                   C
Covered up the truth you've been holding
Am
In a heart that won't let go
F
Of everything it's always known
Dm       F          G       F
I foolishly believed one day you'd change
                        C
But I guess that was my mistake
     G
My mistake
     Am
My mistake
       F
Oh I should've seen it coming

Should've seen it coming
     C
My mistake
     G
My mistake
     Am
My mistake
       F
Oh I should've seen it coming
                                 C
Should've seen it coming

C
Who knew it'd be so easy
G
To lose yourself completely
Am                    F
Forever stuck in your old ways
