                    CDon't (x32010@1)jump on any planes.
                    FAnd (133211@1)I'll keep on kicking myself
                        CFor (x32010@1)having let you get away.

                            BbBut (x1333x@1)I will say it's circumstance
                   FAnd (133211@1)point to the vein.
                          F7Chalk (131241@1)it all up to the weather
                    BbAnd (x1333x@1)not to your disdain.

      Bb (x1333x@1)       FI'll (133211@1)yell from afar
                        CIf (x32010@1)I need to call you names.
                      FForgo (133211@1)the thought of killing myself,
                       CInstead (x32010@1)I'll let you take aim.

                     BbAnd (x1333x@1)force your declaration
               FOf (133211@1)what we became.
                         F7Sure, (131241@1)on paper it looks good,
                    BbIf (x1333x@1)you ignore the stains.

           Bb (x1333x@1)                    FIt's (133211@1)the little things that set me off.

                            CThough (x32010@1)some would call it strange.
                  FAnd (133211@1)I'll keep on kidding myself
                      CThat (x32010@1)I can make you change.

                   BbYou (x1333x@1)know more than anyone
               FMy (133211@1)need to deceive.
                           F7And (131241@1)while I can fool the world,
              BbMostly (x1333x@1)I fool me.

            Bb (x1333x@1)                    FIt's (133211@1)the little things that set me off,
