Intro:Em-C-Dsus-D-Em-C-D

G          Bm       Em
I will not make the same 
mistakes that you did
D-G          Bm         Em
I   Will not let myself cause my 
                    D
heart so much misery
G          Bm        Em
I will not break the way you did
              D
You fell so hard
G                Bm
I've learned the hard way, to 
 Em                    D
never let it get that far 
           Em
Because of you
            C
I'll never stray too far from 
      D
the sidewalk
           Em
Because of you
                         C
I learned to play on the safe side
      D
So I don't get hurt
B7          Am
Because of you
                  G/B
I find it hard to trust
         D                 B7
Not only me, but everyone around me
           C
Because of you
        D
I am afraid 
G         Bm
I lose my way
         Em
And it's not too long before you 
 D        G
point it out
          Bm
I cannot cry
  Em
Because I know that's weakness 
 D       G
in your eyes


              Bm      Em
I'm forced to fake, a smile, a laugh
       D         G
Every day of my life
               Bm
My heart can't possibly break
        Em
When it wasn't even whole to 
 D
start with 
           Em
Because of you
            C
I'll never stray too far from 
     D
the sidewalk
           Em
Because of you
                         C
I learned to play on the safe side
      D
So I don't get hurt
B7         Am
Because of you
                   G/B
I find it hard to trust
         D                B7
Not only me, but everyone around me
           C
Because of you
       D
I am afraid 
              Bm
I watched you die
             Em
I heard you cry
               D
Every night in your sleep
         Bm
I was so young
                Em
You should have known better 
        D
than to lean on me
          Bm                Em
You never thought of anyone else
             D
You just saw your pain
          Bm
And now I cry
                     Em
In the middle of the night
         D
For the same damn thing

           Em
Because of you

            C
I'll never stray too far from 
     D
the sidewalk
           Em
Because of you
                          C
I learned to play on the safe 
side
      D
So I don't get hurt
           F#m
Because of you
                    D
I tried my hardest just to 
        E
forget everything
           F#m
Because of you
                    D
I don't know how to let anyone 
E      C#7
else in
           Bm
Because of you
                   A/C#
I'm ashamed of my life because 
     E     C#7
it's empty
           D
Because of you
       E
I am afraid 
           F#m  D    E
Because of you, wooh ooh
           F#m  D    E
Because of you, Wooh     ooh
