C                   Fmaj7               C
How many times now, have you fallen in love?

         Fmaj7                 C                  G
Has your heart ever truly been full or just full enough?

Fmaj7               C                Am               F
Aren't you tired of telling yourself "One day I'll forget her"?

           Fm                 G                 C
Aren't you tired of starting fires and burning pictures?

C                      Fmaj7               C
Now the last one that left you swore you'd never forget

        Fmaj7             C                           G
Said no matter where she goes in life, she'll be the first in a long line of regrets

C                  Fmaj7        C
But I doubt right now you even recall her name

              Fmaj7                C                     G
cause that's another girls picture lying in that pile of busted 

          C
picture frames

Fmaj7             C               Am               F
and everyone who walks out take a bit more of you with her,

Fm                     G                C
You're still starting fires and burning pictures

Fmaj7                 G
and you know when is comes down to it

         C                   Fmaj7
ain't a damn fool one of us knows what we're doing

        C           G
only to hold on and hope

C             Fmaj7        C
but hope only hurts if you don't believe

 Fmaj7                        C                          G
Sometimes we need to know the difference between what we want and 

                  C
want and what we need

Fmaj7                    C                   Am                 F
when summer comes you'll have a new love but mark my words come winter

Fm                 G                 C
You'll be starting fires and burning pictures
