(Verse 1)

Eb
  I watched the proverbial sunrise

Ab
  coming up over the Pacific and

Cm
  you might think I'm losing my mind,

Bb
  but I will shy away from the specifics...


Ab                           Bb           Cm
  'cause I don't want you to know where I am

         Ab                 Bb
  'cause then you'll see my heart

         Cm
  in the saddest state it's ever been.


Ab                    Bb
  This is no place to try and live my life.


[Pre-Chorus]

(low)Eb      Eb            Bb              Bb/D
  Stop right there. That's exactly where I lost it.

Ab         Cm           Bb
  See that line. Well I never should have crossed it.

(low)Eb      Eb            B2                Bb/D
  Stop right there. Well I never should have said

                Ab/G        Ab
  that it's the very moment that

    Bb
  I wish that I could take back.


[Chorus]

Eb                                    Bb  Cm
  I'm sorry for the person I became.

                                                   Bb  Eb        
  I'm sorry that it took so long for me to change.

                                                   Bb Cm
  I'm ready to try and never become that way again

                                 Ab
  'cause who I am hates who I've been.

        Bb                
  Who I am hates who I've been.


(Intro)


(Verse 2)

Eb
  I talk to absolutely no one.

Ab
  Couldn't keep to myself enough.

          Cm
  And the things bottled inside have finally begun

     Bb
  to create so much pressure that I'll soon blow up.



Eb
  I heard the reverberating footsteps

Ab
  synching up to the beating of my heart,

Cm                                 Bb
  and I was positive that unless I got myself together,


  I would watch me fall apart.



      Ab               Bb      Cm
  And I can't let that happen again

         Ab                 Bb
  'cause then you'll see my heart

         Cm
  in the saddest state it's ever been.

  Ab                  Bb
  This is no place to try and live my life.


[Soft Pre-Chorus]

Eb
  Stop right there. That's exactly where I lost it.

Ab
  See that line. Well I never should have crossed it.

Cm
  Stop right there. Well I never should have said

Bb
  that it's the very moment that I wish that I could take back.


[Regular Pre-Chorus]


[Chorus]


[Bridge]

Eb/G    Ab                Bb
  Who I am hates who I've been

                                               Bb        Cm
  and who I am will take the second chance you gave me.

        Ab                Eb 
  Who I am hates who I've been

                       Bb
  'cause who I've been only ever made me...


[Chorus]
