Gmaj7
I wish I could forget.

Cadd9
all the times you stared across the room

Emaj9sus                        Em
All the times you pretended I didn't know you

Gmaj7
all the times you thought about me in the night

Cmaj7                           Emaj9sus
All the times when you thought it wasn't, right.

Gmaj7
I try to forget your smile

 Em
the way you close your eyes.

Gmaj7
But then I remember all the times

Emaj9sus Gmaj7
I realized.

Cadd9           Em
You just thought I was a game.

E                         Gmaj7
One where you could cheat at the rules

Cmaj7
No matter what others said you would play with me like i'm some tool.

Emaj9sus
You never once thought I would understand.

Gmaj7                                 Em7
But don't second guess me cause i'm not a man.

Gmaj7
I forgot the way you hurt me.

Emaj9sus       Em
The way you didn't read my mind

Cadd9
The way your mind just played tricks on me.

Gmaj7
One's that got in my mind.

Emaj9sus
I was focused on all the wonderful things I knew.

Gmaj7
 I forgot that they have nothing to do with you.

Em
I pushed away all the lies and all the things you said about me.

E
All the times are realized that you were just a stupid guy that didn't like me.

Cadd9           Em
You just thought I was a game.

E                        Gmaj7
One where you could cheat at the rules

Cmaj7
No matter what others said you would play with me like i'm some tool.

Emaj9sus
You never once thought I would understand.

Gmaj7                   Em7
But don't second guess me cause i'm not a ma

Em
I try to push you out

E
But everyone just pushed us together.

Gmaj7
I tried to ignore what they say.

Cadd9
But it feels like you make them say it anyway.

Cadd9
I know I try to understand but no one can explain the lies behind the man

G
I wanted to believe.

Emaj9sus
That you were just what I had dreamed

Gmaj7
But every story has an end

Cadd9
And with that story, there was a man

Gmaj7
But this man was a coward

Emaj9sus
Thought he on the land

Cadd9
Then everything would go to his plan

Gmaj7
But this ain't on pen and paper

E
This is the life i'm living

Em
One that you cannot destroy

Cadd9
Cause you thought that you were the man

Gmaj7
But everyone can tell that you are the boy
