Standard Tuning
No Capo
Verse 1:
G D C9
I remember the nights we spent under city lights
This feelings got the best of me
G D C9
We were floating along to the sounds of a dead end town
But now that's just a memory
G D C9
I can't figure you out, you've got more fight in you
Than anybody else
G D C9
And here's the part where I start to make my own damn decisions
And make a name for my self
Chorus:
C G
I'll never be what you want
D/F#
I wouldn't change any part of me
Em
Just to make you stay
C G
You had a piece of my heart
D/F#
But not enough to just run away
Em
'Cause I know what's best for me
Verse 2:
G D C9
Take all your big plans and throw them away
I've got something in mind before we go separate ways
G D C9
We ask the questions baby,
Who provides the answers?
[Try doing 2 short/fast strums on both C and G]
C
I'm scared to death and it shows
G
The flame burned out, but it glows
D/F# Em
And the look in your eyes says things I don't wanna know
C
It's time to go!
Come closer!
G D/F# Em
And I can't say anything, everything comes out the wrong way
Chorus (again)
C G D/F#
Just try, just try a little harder
Em
I'll do my best explaining all the things I'm going through
C G D/F#
Just try, just try a little harder
Em
This is why I can't adjust for you
Bridge:
Em D/F# G
You........... can't ..............say
The look in your eyes says things I don't wanna know
Em D/F# G
No you, You can't stay
Em D/F# G
I wanna be with you, and no one else
Em D/F#
I need you to feel the way that you felt that summer night
C D
When you found that puzzle piece missing for eight straight weeks
You're not the perfect fit
[you can do 2 short/fast strums for each C and G ]
C
I'll never be what you want
G D/F#
I wouldn't change any part of me
Em
Just to make you stay
C
You had a piece of my heart
G D/F#
But not enough to just run away
Em
'Cause I know what's best for me
