C                     G          Am 
There's something new in my way
                    F   Em   Dm
I thought about him all that day
C                G              Am
Sitting at home, dying alone
            F     Em Dm 
Then again, who am I to say?

C            G                   Am         F 
We both know I've been down that same road
      Em  Dm   C                G
I know it gets lonely when that phone rings
         Am
It's the last thing you wanna hear


CHORUS:
C        G              Dm
I should know better by now
F             C       G
But after all, after all 
C      G         Dm
I'm so tired of explaining
F                            C
All the things I should have said

Am G

C          G
I secretly always knew
Am                 F   Em  Dm
But that news came way too soon
C                         G
I was sitting at home and wondering why
Am              F      Em  Dm
I couldn't even look you in the eye
C                 G                       Am       F
I heard all those things that your father told you 
Em           Dm   C                      G
You know it's not right, but taking your own life
             Am
Might be the only thing that you see through

CHORUS:
C        G              Dm
I should know better by now
F             C       G
But after all, after all 
C      G         Dm
I'm so tired of explaining
F             C              G  Am
All the things I should have said

BRIDGE:
       Am          Am C F E
It's alright to complain
       Am     C F            Am C F E
It's alright         to feel pain

Am C F E

SOLO: D C F G

 C           
I thought I had the answers to all of my problems
    C
With one thing but it's always the same
    C
I go in one door and right out the other
        C                        C
I'm left with me and James and a million little pieces

Am           G
It's not that I want them all
F     C     G        Am
To be sorry when I'm gone
         G          F        C G
I'm just tired of waking up
Am           G
I'm gonna try the pills tonight
F                 C    G  
I'm gonna try and do it my way
Am              G
And watch it all fall apart

CHORUS:
C             G         Dm
I should know better by now
F             C       G
But after all, after all
C      G           Dm
I'm so tired of explaining
F                            C      
All the things I should have said

Am G F
