[Verse 1, Tell me why]
Cadd9           G
 I took a chance, I took a shot

Dsus4                    Em7
 And you might think I'm bulletproof, but I'm not

Cadd9            G
 You took a swing, I took it hard

Dsus4                   Em7
 And down here from the ground I see who you are
[Chorus, TMW]
Cadd9                       G
 I'm sick and tired of your attitude

                          D
 I'm feeling like I don't know you

                      Em7
 You tell me that you love me then cut me down

Cadd9                  G
 And I need you like a heartbeat

                        D
 But you know you got a mean streak

                  Em7   D/F#     G Em7 Cadd9
 Makes me run for cover when you're around

Cadd9          D
 And here's to you and your temper

        G                 D/F#      Em7
 Yes, I remember what you said last night

           Cadd9                      D
 And I know that you see what you're doing to me

         G
 Tell me why
[Verse 1, Foolish one]
   G
My cards are on the table, yours are in your hands

C
Chances are tonight you've already got plans

    Am                 C                     G
And chances are I will talk myself to sleep again

            G
You give me just enough attention to keep my hopes too high

        C
Wishful thoughts forget to mention when something's really not right

    Am                     C                      G    D
And I will block out these voices of reason in my head
[Chorus, FO]
                     C           G     D
And the voices say, "You are not the exception

C              D                  G
You will never learn your lesson, foolish one

                                  C
Stop checking your mailbox for confessions of love that ain't never gonna come

Am                                                     D
You will take the long way, you will take the long way down"
[Chorus, TMW]
Cadd9                       G
 I'm sick and tired of your reasons

                   D
 I got no one to believe in

                      Em7                     Cadd9
 You tell me that you want me, then push me around

                       G
 And I need you like a heartbeat

                        D
 But you know you got a mean streak

                  Em7   D/F#     G Em7 Cadd9
 Makes me run for cover when you're around

Cadd9          D
 And here's to you and your temper

        G                 D/F#      Em7
 Yes, I remember what you said last night

           Cadd9                      D
 And I know that you see what you're doing to me

         G
 Tell me why
[Bridge, TMW]
  Em                  C
Why... do you have to make me feel small

   G                     D
So you can feel whole inside

Em                    C
Why... do you have to put down my dreams

   A                         C  D
So you're the only thing on my mind
[Verse 2, FO]
         G
You know how to keep me waiting, I know how to act like I'm fine

                   C
Don't know what to call this situation but I know I can't call you mine

         Am                   C                        G
And it's delicate, but I will do my best to seem bulletproof

               G
'Cause when my head is on your shoulder it starts thinking you'll come around

          C
And maybe someday when we're older this is something we'll laugh about

     Am           C                                 G    D
Over coffee every morning while you're watching the news
[Chorus, FO]
                          C           G     D
But then the voices say, "You are not the exception

C              D                  G
You will never learn your lesson, foolish one

                                  C
Stop checking your mailbox for confessions of love that ain't never gonna come

Am                                                     D
You will take the long way, you will take the long way down"

G
Foolish one

                                  C
Stop checking your mailbox for confessions of love that ain't never gonna come

Am                                                   D
You will learn the hard way, instead of just walking out"
[Bridge, FO]
        Em                            C
Now I'm sliding down the wall with my head in my hands

         G                       D
Saying, "How could I not see the signs?"

                Em
Oh, you haven't written me or called

            C
But goodbye screaming in the silence

        G                             D
And the voices in my head are telling me why
[Verse 3, FO]
       G
'Cause you got her on your arm and me in the wings

     C
I'll get your longing glances but she'll get your ring

    Am               C                    G
And you will say you had the best of intentions

    Am                   C        D
And maybe I will finally learn my lesson
[Chorus, TMW]
Cadd9                       G
 I'm sick and tired of your attitude

                          D
 I'm feeling like I don't know you

                      Em7                 Cadd9
 You tell me that you want me then cut me down

                            G
 I'm sick and tired of your reasons

                   D
 I got no one to believe in

                   Em7  D/F#     G      Em7 Cadd9
 You ask me for my love then you push me around

Cadd9      D
 Here's to you and your temper

        G                 D/F#      Em7
 Yes, I remember what you said last night

           Cadd9                      D
 And I know that you see what you're doing to me

         G   Em7             Cadd9 D
 Tell me why, why, tell me why,  ohh
[Outro, FO]
G C
Ohh, lalalalala lalalalalalala la lalalalala
Ain't never gonna come
Am                              D
Ooh, you will learn the hard way now

G
Foolish one

                              C
Sitting 'round waiting for confessions of love, they ain't never gonna come

    Am                                                D
And thinking he's the one, you should've been walking out

G
Foolish one

                                  C
The day is gonna come for your confessions of love, when all is said and done

   Am                          D                   G
He just wasn't the one, no, he just wasn't the one
