Intro -x2-: Gb Bbm Ebm

Verse 1:
           Gb
Well, it′s not your fault that someone came
  Bbm                                  Ebm
Into your life and messed up all your plans
         Gb
And it's not your fault that you were kind
    Bbm                          Ebm  Gb Db
And nice enough to give a second chance
         B
And it′s not your fault that you were strong
                            Gb
And had to be when everyone forgot

I know you pray at night
                                      B
It's hard for you to still believe in God

It's not a fairy tale, it never was
                        Gb
But a part of you would thought

That if you′re hold on for a moment now
     Db    Db
That everything would stop

Pre-Chorus:
     Ebm
It′s true, it took four years from me
  Bbm                     B
I know it now, I'll never get it back
           Ebm
It took me ten thousand hours
        Bbm                       B
Just to kill the man that beat me blue and black

Chorus:
          Ebm                    Bbm
Oh, I was stuck in the middle of heaven and hell
        B
I spent all my cash on alcohol and things I know too well
         Ebm                Bbm
I took a trip to Mexico but didn′t find myself
       B
I came home both broke and empty and the rest I shouldn't tell

Verse 2:
              Gb
It′s not your fault that someone came into
     Bbm                      Ebm
Your life and went projecting everything
           Gb                                  Bbm
With every word you said they spin it round missing
                         Ebm           Gb Bbm
The sound of pretty lies they'd sing
            Gb
It not your fault you miss the company
     Bbm                     Ebm
It′s nice enough when anyone is there
        Gb
Another soul to keep you warm It's not
     Bbm                            Ebm   Gb Db
Your fault that you want someone to care
         B
But it's not your job to calm me down
                                     Gb
It′s not your job to keep me off the roof

Cause I′ll blame anyone and anything
                     B
Oh, just to hide the truth, I'm not a fairy tale
                                 Gb
I never was, I′m good at blaming you
                                            Db      Db
It's not the answer that I hoped for, but I know it now

Pre-Chorus:
     Ebm
It′s true, it took four years from me
  Bbm                     B
I know it now, I'll never get it back
           Ebm                        Bbm
It took me ten thousand hours just to kill the man
             B
That beat me blue and black

Chorus:
          Ebm                    Bbm
Oh, I was stuck in the middle of heaven and hell
        B
I spent all my cash on alcohol and things I know too well
         Ebm                Bbm
I took a trip to Mexico but didn′t find myself
       B
I came home both broke and empty and the rest I shouldn't tell
          Ebm                    Bbm
And I was stuck in the middle of heaven and hell
        B
I spent all my cash on alcohol and things I know too well
         Ebm                Bbm
I took a trip to Mexico and didn't find myself
     B
Came home both broke and empty and the rest I shouldn′t tell
