READ: In the verses the chords are played in a specific way. Set It Off uses
 a down stroke on the first three notes of chord than a small up stroke on 
the 2nd note then strums the whole chord. After the F#'s 2nd strum it starts
 the strum on the A and B. Listen to the song to get the rhythm, it's pretty
 simple. Do this in the verses until the third verse, the third verse they 
strum every note.

Like this.

E:------0-------0-------0
B:------0-------0-------0

D:---2--2---4-4-4----4--4
A:--2-2-2--2----2---4-4-4
E:-0----0----------2----2

**Verse 1**
E
If you stepped back,

And realized

I'm sure that you'll see,
B
That these words

That were spoken eventually
F#
Will dwell in my conscience

Til my dying day.
A             B
Oh what can i say
E
To change your perception,

Want me by your side?
B
The fact that youve moved on

Makes me wanna cry.
F#
If you open your door

I'll be there with arms wide
A
Just begging and praying
B
For one more goodbye.
         Ab       A
So i'll wait for you,
        Ab                     A               
Even though you don't want me to.


**Chorus**
E                       A
Because i'm not over you.

I promise.
C#
This word they call love,

Come push or to shove,
B
I meant it and now i'm in tears,
E           
My love.
B         A
Oh, my love.
C#   B
Oh.


**Verse 2**
E
I keep telling myself that

It's not what it seems.
B
And wish that you wouldn't keep

Haunting my dreams.
F#
I'll shoot out of bed

And wake up in a sweat.
A          B
How could i forget?
E
I imagined the worst when

You were on the phone
B
As you sat there,

And told me, that you were alone.
F#
I could see him;

I know how he makes you behave,
A                                  B
That this wasn't the girl that i kissed on our date.
      Ab           A
But i'll wait for you,
        Ab                    A
Even though you don't want me to.


**Chorus**
       E                A
Because i'm not over you.

I promise.
C#
This word they call love,

Come push or to shove,
B
I meant it and now i'm in tears,
E                       A
Because i'm not over you.

I promise,
C#
You wont see this face

Show up at your place.
A
Although i'm in town,

I'll stay here.
E
My love.
B
Oh, my love.
A
My love.
C#           B
Oh, my love.


**Verse 3**
E
And i should know better,

Give up while i can.
B
And prove to the world

That i'll be my own man.
F#
You broke me

And took me along for the ride
A
And this pain that youve left me
B
Should make me subside

**Chorus**
        E               A
Because i'm not over you.

I promise.
C#
This word they call love,

Come push or to shove,
B
I meant it and now i'm in tears,
E                       A
Because i'm not over you.

I promise,
C#
You wont see this face

Show up at your place.
A
Although i'm in town,

I'll stay here.


**Outro Chorus**
E                    A
Cause i'm not over you

I promise.
B
This word they call love,

Come push or to shove,
A
I meant it and now i'm in tears,
E
My love.
