Bm
You're telling me the same old story
G
And that I need to change
D
If you're not leaving my life for me
A
You make me feel that way

Bm
You know, you know
G
We're losing control
D
I gotta break away
A
Or nothing's gonna change

Bm
You got to go
         G
It's the end of the road
D                        A
No matter what you do or say
G               A
Baby you're not what I need

B         G             D      
I'm over this, I'm over you
              A                Bm    G    D
I'm not gonna waste my life away
           A
This is my independence day
Bm            G                 D
I'm moving on, there's no excuse
        A                 Bm    G    D
I can't take away the pain
           A               Bm   G    D
This is my independence day
           A               Bm   G    D~
This is my independence day

Bm
Suddenly my picture's looking perfect
G
Since you're not in the frame
D
And deep down, I never meant to hurt you
A
But you're the one to blame

Bm
You know, you know
G
We're losing control
D
Before it's too late
A
I'm making my escape

Bm
Now that I'm gone
G
You're own your own
D                        A
No matter what you do or say

G               A
Baby you're not what I need

B         G             D      
I'm over this, I'm over you
              A                Bm    G    D
I'm not gonna waste my life away
           A
This is my independence day
Bm            G                 D
I'm moving on, there's no excuse
        A                 Bm    G    D
I can't take away the pain
           A               
This is my independence day

D         G
  Wouldn't it be nice
Bm                  A  
  If it could have worked out right for us?
D               G                   Bm            A
  I know you're fighting for all we had
D               G
  But it didn't feel right
Bm              A
  Hearts on our sleeves we lost tonight
D                G               
  And there's no looking back
