[Verse 1]
G D I had the best intentions when I opened up my mouth Em C Thought I'd lighten up the room, maybe laugh it off some how G D But the joke got there before the kindness in my head Em C And I watched it land between us, yeah, I wished I’d left it unsaid
[Chorus]
C G When will I ever learn D Em There’s a line I shouldn’t cross C G I’m just trying to be clever D Em But I keep tripping on my thoughts C G I don’t mean the damage done D Em I don’t hear it ’til it hurts C G I love you like it’s breathing D G So when will I ever learn
[Verse 2]
G D I’ve been doing this forever, it’s a hard habit to break Em C I talk before I listen, say too much for my own sake G D I reach for something funny when I’m feeling unsure Em C But I’m learning love ain’t clever, it’s just showing up pure
[Chorus]
C G When will I ever learn D Em There’s a line I shouldn’t cross C G I’m just trying to be clever D Em But I keep tripping on my thoughts C G I don’t mean the damage done D Em I don’t hear it ’til it hurts C G I love you like it’s breathing D G So when will I ever learn
[Guitar Solo]
C G D Em x2
[Bridge]
Em Maybe learning isn’t fixing it C Maybe it’s staying when I’m wrong G Maybe loving you is listening D Even when I wish I’d just kept my mouth shut all along
[Chorus]
C G When will I ever learn D Em Yeah, I ask it every time C G I don’t need to have the answer D Em Just the heart to keep in line C G I don’t claim I’ll get it right D Em I don't think I'll ever earn C G The grace you keep on giving D G While I’m still trying to learn
