Chords

[Intro] G [Verse 1]
   G
My cards are on the table, yours are in your hand

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 someting's really not right

    Am                     C                      G
And I will block out these voices of reason in my head
[Pre-Chorus]
D
 And the voices say

 C           G     D
"You are not the exception"

 C              D
"You will never learn your lesson"
[Chorus 1]
G
Foolish one, stop checking your mailbox

       C
for confessions of love that ain't never gonna come

Am
You will take the long way

                           D
You will take the long way down
[Interlude] G C Am D [Verse 2]
C                G
 I took a chance, I took a shot

D                        Em
 And you might think I'm bulletproof, but I'm not

C                 G
 You took a swing, I took it hard

D                     Em
 And down here on the ground I see who you are
[Chorus 2]
C                           G
 I'm sick and tired of your attitude

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

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

C                      G
 And I need you like a heartbeat

                       D
But you know you got a mean streak

                 Em
Makes me run for cover when you're around

C          D
 Here's to you and your temper

         G                         Em
Yes, I remember what you said last night

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

        G  C Am D
Tell me why
[Bridge 1]
  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 that you're the only thing on my mind?
[Bridge 2]
       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 1]
G
Foolish one, stop checking your mailbox

       C
for confessions of love that ain't never gonna come

Am
You will take the long way

                           D
You will take the long way down

G
Foolish one, stop checking your mailbox

       C
for confessions of love that ain't never gonna come

Am
You will learn the hard way

                        D  G
Instead of just walking out
[Outro]
C                       Am D
  Ain't never gonna come

G
Foolish one, the day is gonna come

            C
for your confessions of love
When all is said and done
   Am                          D
He just wasn't the one, no, he just wasn't the one

C                   G
 I take a step back, let you go

D                   Em                   G
 I told you I'm not bulletproof, now you know
