Verse 1:
E           B               A         B
There was a time when I was scared of nothing
E           B                 A          B
Nothing can touch you if you don't look back
E         B               A         B
I walked away from every good thing that I had

E, B, A, B

Verse 2:
E             B              A       B
By the time I met you it was 12 past midnight
E            B               A     B
Told you I'd be the best you never had
E                  B
You said "Are you serious?"
A                B
I said, "Like a heart attack."

E, B, A, B

    B              A                        E
But it was far too late before I figured it out.
  
I never meant to be your, I never meant to be your
B                 A
One night, one mistake.

Chorus:
E                        B         A
I never meant to be your part-time lover
E                            B         A
Then again I've never been a full-time man
E                                 A            B
Never thought it'd hurt so bad to see you with another
E                         B
Guess I'm the fool that ya, ya think I am

I never called you like I know I should of

Thought I could save you for a rainy day

Then again I've never been a full-time man
