Intro: G Bm Em Em D Gb Verse 1: G When you'd yell I would stay silent Bm You never noticed I was quiet Em D I was taught that speaking up was talking back G Always first to say, "I'm sorry" Bm 'Cause I wanted you to like me Em D And I thought that's what it took to make it last Pre-chorus: C It's a lose-lose D That I don't choose C Cm But you don't always choose the ones you love Chorus: Em C G I shouldn't have to be the bigger person Em C G How come I have to break to keep us working? Em C G B7 It's always up to me even though it shouldn't be C Cm I'll take the blame the way you want me to G Bm Em D 'Cause that's what I'd do for you Verse 2: G I was half of this dynamic Bm I was stable, you were manic Em D Without you or with you, comes with a cost G I got used to the excuses Bm And emotional abuses Em D We kept moving the lines we'd never cross Pre-chorus: C It's a lose-lose D That I don't choose C Cm But you don't always choose the ones you love Chorus: Em C G I shouldn't have to be the bigger person Em C G How come I have to break to keep us working? Em C G B7 It's always up to me even though it shouldn't be C Cm I'll take the blame the way you want me to Am 'Cause that's what I'd do for you Post-chorus: D G I always think it's over but it never really is Em E Am 'Cause I can't get the closure when you're like this D Can we switch Bridge: Em C G Maybe this time you'll be the bigger person Em C G 'Cause I'm getting tired of bearing all your burden Em C G B7 It should be up to you, but you won't admit the truth, ooh-ooh Chorus: Em C G I shouldn't have to be the bigger person Em C G How come I have to break to keep us working? Em C G B7 It's always up to me even though it shouldn't be C Cm I'll take the blame the way you want me to (nc) 'Cause that's what I'd do for you This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.
