INTRO: E 
 
E       B 
One day your face will fade 
A                   C#m 
And your heart will see new things 
E                B 
Someday there'll be no parade 
A                   C#m 
And you'll see what life can bring 
E           B 
You made me wait for you 
A                    C#m 
While your brilliant mind was seething 
E                       B 
I guess you didn't know that you were 
A                   C#m 
The only thing that kept me breathing 
E      B 
I said the things I said 
A             C#m 
Not because I meant to harm you 
E                     B 
Now you know that I'm nearly dead 
A                     C#m 
I'll just bet that it kinda warms you 
 
 
CHORUS: 
B                      A 
You left me out on the edge of the world 
B                              A 
You played your cards and your power as the girl 
B                              A 
You watched with pride as your flag unfurled 
    C#m                B                     E 
And you watched me fall from the edge of the world 
 
E             B 
Revenge is so sweet they say 
A                       C#m 
But they don't tell you that it eats you 
E             B 
Your crowd is gathered 'round today 
A                                   C#m 
But someday they're the ones who'll beat you 
E               B 
I know that I'm wrong about 
A                   C#m 
What came out of me last time we talked 
E                  B 
But do you have to shout it out 
A                     C#m 
That you think that I would really walk 
 
 
CHORUS 
 
E                      B 
You said I could never be too intense 
A                   C#m 
It only proved that I really loved you 
E                B 
You said that it all made sense 
A                   C#m 
That I would put no one above you 
E                      B 
And now we're just one slip on my part 
A                   B 
You've used that to damn me 
E                     B 
If you felt the desperation in my heart 
A                       C#m 
Then maybe you wouldn't slam me 
 
 
CHORUS 
 
E          B 
I pray you never lose your face 
A               C#m 
I hope it stays brand new 
E                    B 
'Cause in this world it's the place 
A               C#m 
Where everybody seems to love you 
E               B 
Where I live it doesn't mean a thing 
A             C#m 
I'll be there in forever 
E           B 
If you ever hear my heart sing 
A           C#m    
You'll know we're together
