Verse 1:
Bm
Started out, started out so simple
        A
We were runnin' 'round, runnin' 'round like children
        G
How did we allow, we allow this story
   D       Gb
To fall so south
 

Bm
What were we, what were we both thinking
        A
We were so naive, so naive believin'
        G
We were still happy, still happy
              D        Gb (nc)
How could I ignore my doubts
 
Pre-chorus:
 
I keep on telling myself
Bm
We had something good 
                     G
Did we stay together longer than we should 
                        A
Were we just playing pretend because we could
                   E
Was it really that good
 
Chorus:
 
I keep on telling myself
Bm
It's not what it was
                      G
Did we just want to believe that this was love?
                        A
Was it really worth the trouble that it caused?
                    E
Look where we ended up

I keep on telling myself
                    A
I keep on telling myself
                    E
I keep on telling myself, ooh
 
Verse 2:
Bm
Don't pretend, don't pretend 
                       A
You're all of a sudden innocent, innocent
                     G
My darlin' how could you forget 
                                 D      (Gb)
You forget the first half of the story now

Bridge:
    G                      D               Gb
And now that you’re gone I see it all clearly 
    G                    D                 Gb
And don't get me wrong I wouldn't change a thing
 
I keep on telling my
