C5                     B5                 
you walk down alameda shuffle-ing your deck
            A5     A5     F5
of trick ca-ards o-ver every-one
          C5             B5    A5
like some precious only son
                          F5
face down, bow to the champion
C5                     B5
you walk down alameda looking at the
                  A5
cracks in the sidewalk
          A5     F5
thinking about your friends
        C5                 B5   A5
how you maintain all them in
                      F5
a constant state of suspense
         D5     E5      A5      C5 
for your own protection   over their affection
Eb5                G5
nobody broke your heart
    C5         F5                   B5              C5
you broke your own cause you can't finish what you start
                  B5                              A5
walk down alameda brushing off the nightmare you wish
      A5                         F5
could plague me when i'm awake
            C5                B5    A5                               F5
and now you see your first mistake    was thinking that you could relate
    C5      F5                     A5
for one or two minutes she liked you
        C5      F5
but the fix is in
       D5     E5       A5
you're all pretension
        C5
i never pay attention
Eb5                G5
nobody broke your heart
    C5         F5                     B5                 C5
you broke your own because you can't    finish what you start
Eb5                G5
nobody broke your heart
    C5         F5                     B5                 C5
you broke your own because you can't    finish what you start
Eb5                G5
nobody broke your heart
    C5         F5                     B5                 C5
you broke your own because you can't    finish what you start
Eb5                G5
nobody broke your heart
   C5      F5               B5                    C5    
if you're alone it must be you that wants to be apart
