Bm Thing (x10) 
         A2               Bm
            I woke up and called you this morning 
         A2                  Bm
            The tone of your voice was a warning 
         C2                 G               Bm Thing
            That you don't care for me any more 
 
            I made up the bed we sleep in 
            I looked at the clock when you creep in 
            It's 6 a.m. and I'm alone 
 
                             D2       G              Em            C2
                               Did you know when you go, it's the perfect ending 
                             D2       G     Em
                               To the bad day I was just beginning 
                             D2        G         Em                  C2          Gadd4 C2
                               When you go all I know is you're my favorite mistake 
                                                                                                                 Bm Thing (x2) 

            Your friends are sorry for me 
            They watch you pretend to adore me 
            But I'm no fool to this game 
 
            Now here comes your secret lover 
            She'd be unlike any other 
            Until your guilt goes up in flames 
 
                               Did you know when you go, it's the perfect ending 
                               To the bad day I'd gotten used to spending 
                               When you go all I know is you're my favorite mistake 
                                                      Gadd4 C2
                               You're my favorite mistake 
 
                                                        B2             Bb2
                                                  Well, maybe nothin' lasts forever 
                                                  F             G
                                                  Even when you stay together 
                                                 B2                Bb2
                                                  I don't need forever after 
                                                 F                    Em
                                                  It's your laughter won't let me go 
                                                                                         (begin solo) 
                                                      so, I'm holding on this way 
                                                                 *Solo*   (Chorus) 
 
                               And did you know, could you tell you were the only one 
                               That I ever loved 
                               Now everything's so wrong 
 
                               Did you see me walking by? 
                               Did it ever make you cry? 
                               Now you're my favorite mistake 
                               Now you're my favorite mistake 
                                                      Gadd4 C2 Bm
                               You're my favorite mistake...
