Verse 1:
G                                            C
  Just talk yourself up And tear yourself down
G                                             C
  You've hit your one wall Now find a way around
G                        Bm                       Em--D/F#
  Well what's the problem? You've got a lot of nerve


Refrain:
   Em                      C
So what'd you think I would say?
                  C                      D/F#
No you can't run away, no you can't run away
   Em                       D/F#
So what did you think I would say?
                  G                     Bm
No you can't run away, no you can't run away
You wouldn't


Chorus:
C        D/F#       Em
  I never wanted to say this
C           G         D/F# 
  You never wanted to stay
C         D/F#            Em
  I put my faith in you, so much faith
         C        D/F#        G  D/F#
And then you just threw it away


(Repeat Intro once only)
You threw it away


Verse 2:
G                                     C
  I'm not so naive My sorry eyes can see
G                                        C
  The way you fly shy Of almost everything
G                    Bm                        Em--D/F#--
  Well, if you give up You'll get what you deserve


(Repeat Refrain and Chorus)


Bridge:(you are going to need to look up the tabs for that part) 
You were finished long before
We had even seen the start
Why don't you stand up, be a man about it?
                                    G(hold)
Fight with your bare hands about it now

C           G         D/F#
  You never wanted to stay
C          D/F#            Em
  I put my faith in you, so much faith
         C        D/F#        G
And then you just threw it away
C         D/F#        Em
  I never wanted to say this
C           G         D/F# 
  You never wanted to stay
C          D/F#            Em
  I put my faith in you, so much faith
         C        D/F#        G
And then you just threw it away
