A E
The bravest thing Iʼve ever done
Bm7 E
Was to run away and hide
A E D E
But not this time, not this time
A E
And the weakest thing Iʼve ever done
Bm7 E
Was to stay right by your side
A E D E
Just like this time and every time
Bm D E
I couldnʼt tell you I was happy you were gone
D E D E
So I lied and said that I missed you when we were apart
Bm D E
I couldnʼt tell you so I had to lead you on
A E A E D E
But I didnʼt mean to break your heart.
A E
And if I always seemed distracted,
Bm7 E
Like my mind is somewhere else
A E D E
Thatʼs because itʼs true, yes itʼs true
A E
Itʼs the stupid pride that makes me feel
Bm7 E
Like I have to follow through
A E D E
Even half-assedly, loving you
Bm E D E
Why must I always speak in terms of cowardice?
Bm7
When I guess I should have just come out and told
E
You right from the start
Bm E D E
Why must I always tell you all I want is this?
D E A E Bm7 E
I guess cause I didnʼt want to break your heart.
E
And you said
Bm
Whatʼd you think I that I was gonna do?
Bm
Curl up and die just because of you?
E
Iʼm not that weak, you know
Bm
Whatʼd you think that I was gonna do?
Bm
Try to make you love me as much as I love you?
E
How could you be so low?
A E D E
You arrogant man,
F#m E D E
What do you think that I am?
Bm E
My heart will be fine
Bm E
Just stop wasting my time
A E
And now I know that you will be okay
Bm7 E
And that I got what I want
A E
And thatʼs rid of you
D E
Good-bye
A E
And its not cause Iʼll be missing you
Bm7 E
That makes me fall apart
A E
Itʼs just that I didnʼt mean to break
Bm7 E
No, I didnʼt mean to break
D E
No, I didnʼt mean to break
A E D E
Your heart
A E D E
Your heart
