[Verse 1]
Bm
You're telling me the same old story

G
And that I need to change

D
If you're not leaving my life for me

A
You make me feel that way

Bm
You know, you know

G
We're losing control

D
I gotta break away

A
Or nothing's gonna change

Bm
You got to go

         G
It's the end of the road

D                        A
No matter what you do or say

G               A
Baby you're not what I need
[Chorus]
Bm         G             D      
I'm over this, I'm over you

              A                Bm    G    D
I'm not gonna waste my life away

           A
This is my independence day

Bm            G                 D
I'm moving on, there's no excuse

        A                 Bm    G    D
I can't take away the pain

           A               Bm   G    D
This is my independence day

           A               Bm   G    D~
This is my independence day
[Verse 2]
Bm
Suddenly my picture's looking perfect

G
Since you're not in the frame

D
And deep down, I never meant to hurt you

A
But you're the one to blame

Bm
You know, you know

G
We're losing control

D
Before it's too late

A
I'm making my escape

Bm
Now that I'm gone

G
You're own your own

D                        A
No matter what you do or say

G               A
Baby you're not what I need
[Chorus]
Bm         G             D      
I'm over this, I'm over you

              A                Bm    G    D
I'm not gonna waste my life away

           A
This is my independence day

Bm            G                 D
I'm moving on, there's no excuse

        A                 Bm    G    D
I can't take away the pain

           A               
This is my independence day
[Bridge]
D         G
  Wouldn't it be nice

Bm                  A  
  If it could have worked out right for us?

D               G                   Bm            A
  I know you're fighting for all we had

D               G
  But it didn't feel right

Bm              A
  Hearts on our sleeves we lost tonight

D                G               
  And there's no looking back
