Intro:
Eb , F# (2x)


Verse 1:
x                 Eb5 F#5
I've got a bad feeling
                    Eb5          F#5
that I went and got dirt on your name
                            Eb5 F#5
and you swear you heard them say
Eb5         F#5
"that is the guy who makes the biggest mistakes", oh.
Eb5 F#5                             Eb5
He said, she said, that I'm a joke.
            F#5
The kind of hoax that leaves a lump in your throat.
Eb5      F#5
From what I hear I still maintain some class
           Eb5       F#5
and if you let me be your first

I swear I'll be your last
    Ab5                         Bb5 F#5
and all the rumors that you may have heard
     Ab5                            Bb5 F#5
have left a mark and striped you of your worth.


Chorus:
x   Bbm5             F#5
And I never meant to go.
                    Ab5 Bbm F#5 C#5   Ab5 Bbm F#5
I'm leaving you the only... way... I... know.

No, I never meant to go.
                    Ab5 Bbm F#5 C#5   Ab5 Bbm F#5
I'm leaving you the only... way... I... know.

Verse 2:
x                    Eb5 F#5
You've got a gut feeling 
                    Eb5      F#5
that I went and got dirt on your name and
                       Eb5 F#5
you swear you heard them say
                            Eb5     F#5
that giving up will be your biggest mistake. Whoa!
Eb5      F#5      
I've got a spot for blondes and green eyes.
Eb5   F#5                                     Eb5
I am falling faster and it frames no surprise.
    F#5
Shallow is as shallow does,
           Eb5         F#5
and if you let me have my way

I swear I'll tear you apart,
    Ab5                            Bb5  F#5
and all I've got is what I bare in these arms.
    Ab5                         Bb5 F#5  Eb5 F#5
The saddest part is that is not enough
x                  Eb5 F#5
And everybody knows

And I never meant to go.
                    Ab5 Bbm F#5 C#5   Ab5 Bbm F#5
I'm leaving you the only... way... I... know.
Bbm                  F#
No, I never meant to go.

I'm leaving you the only... way... I... know...
