Verse

Bb                Eb
I understand your point of view
Ab                F                            Bb
Letting me go but I thought you had more faith
Bb              Eb
Everything I've done for you
Ab                            F                    Bb
You made the mistakes and now you throw this in my face
Bb                Eb
And I have worked so hard for you
Ab                       C#      F
All of this time and you cast me aside
Bb                Eb            F#
I understand your point of view

Chorus

C#                         Eb
But I can't seem to get my head around
Eb                         F#
All the things that I feel good about
Bb                  Ab
Always seem to disappear
C#                                  Eb
And everytime I think I've got this all worked out
Eb                        F#
Something chews me up and spits me out
F#                          Bb
But there's nothing left to fear
Eb                  F#
I'm better alone my dear.

Verse

Bb                  Eb             Ab
You couldn't pick a better time to give me the news
Ab            F                Bb
Why don't you kick me when I'm down?
Bb         Eb
I'd always believed in you
Ab                     F                 Bb
Defended your name but you have not been true
Bb            Eb
I gave you so much of my life 
Ab                   C#          F
I've compromised and you tell me goodbye
Bb                Ab           F# 
You couldn't pick a better time

Chorus

C#                         Eb
And I can't seem to get my head around
Eb                         F#
All the things that I feel good about
Bb                  Ab
Always seem to disappear
C#                                   Eb
And every time I think I've got this all worked out
Eb                        F#
Something chews me up and spits me out
F#                          Bb
But there's nothing left to fear
Eb                  F#
I'm better alone my dear

Bb       C#                          Eb             F#
I know I really should thank you for setting me free
Bb           C#                     Eb              Bb
It's really amazing the changes I'm starting to feel
Bb       F#             Ab
It's not gonna be long, till I'm fit and strong
F                  Bb
Deliverance helped me heal
Bb      Eb            F#
Still I wonder if you ever wish you still had me

C#                 Eb
Will I ever get my head around
Eb                         F#
All the things that I feel good about 
Bb                       Ab
That always seems to disappear
C#                                    Eb
When every time I think I've got this all worked out
Eb                        F#
Something chews me up and spits me out
F#                          Bb
But there's nothing left to fear
Ab
No No No

C#                     Eb
I can't seem to get my head around
Eb                         F#
All the things that I feel good about 
Bb                       Ab
That always seems to disappear
Ab
No No

C#                                   Eb
And every time I think I've got this figured out
Eb                         F#
Something screws me up and drags me down
F#                          Bb
But there's nothing left to fear
Bb               Eb F#
I'm better alone my dear
