Lagwagon - Violins 
   
Intro: C5 G5 E5 F5 
 
C5          G5             E5             F5             C5       
 I am just another fool and I have to keep telling myself that   
            G5           E5              F5           
I am just a hypocrite and I have to keep calling you one   
C5          G5                  
 And I forgot to bite my tongue  
         E5               F5               C5 
As my assumption is the mother of all mistakes  
      G5               A5                 F5     G5      C5 
So I assume the role, open my mouth, and clumsy words escape 
 

C5          Bb5               F5                   
 So why you  wanna be there, when you can be here?  
G5                  C5   
 You are slipping away   
 

C5              G5                         E5   
 I awake with your replacement, a bottle in my grasp, 
       F5          C5 
In an unfamiliar place   
                     G5                            E5   
'Cause you put me out, the butt of your sick joke,  
                       F5                   C5 
Into this ashtray life, as you come and go   
             G5                      E5   
'Cause I forgot to service you, and we broke down,  
               F5               C5 
And you can't live with my mistakes   
        G5                  A5             
But I assume false grace, open my arms,  
      F5       G5         C5 
And grasp at something true.   

   
C5             Bb5                    F5 
 How are you?   How have you been?  
                G5               C5   
Girl I miss you, wanna see you again   
          Bb5               F5                   
So why you  wanna be there, when you can be here?  
G5                  F5   
 You are slipping away

C5                G5            E5                F5             
 I bring out the worst in you, and you try to let me know   
C5                   G5              E5        F5 
 You bring out the worst in me, anxiety, anxiety   
C5          G5            E5 
 I'm trying to let you go,  
             F5               C5 
You say I'm giving you the creeps.   
      G5                 A5             
So I assume the role, open my claws,  
      F5        G5         
And grasp for your heart   

 
C5             Bb5                    F5 
 How are you?   How have you been?  
                G5               C5   
Girl I miss you, wanna see you again   
         Bb5                     F5 
Into you,  like a mortal stake,  
              G5                       F5   
So vindictive, your love's slipping away
