EmD#C#
Seems like forever and a day
EmD#C#
If my intentions are misunderstood
EmD#C#
Please be kind, I've done all I should
Am
I won't ask of you
B
What I would not do
C#BAm
Oh, I saw the damage in you
GF#
My fortunate one, the envy of youth
BC#D
Why would they tell me to please those
AG#AD
That laugh in my face
BC#D
When all of the reasons they've taught us
AG#AD
Fall over themselves to give way
EmD#C#
It's not a question whether my heart is true
EmD#C#
Streamlined, I had to pull through
Am
Look for a new
B
Beginning on you
C#BAm
Oh I got a message for you
C#BAm
Up and away, It's what I gotta do
GF#
Forgive what you have, for what you might lose
BC#D
What would you say if I told you
AG#AD
that I'm to blame
BC#D
And what would you do if I had
AG#AD
to deny your name
BC#D
Where would you go if I told you
AG#AD
I love you, and then walked away
BC#D
N' who should I turn to if not
AG#
for the ones that you could not save
ABG
I told you when I found you
F#
If there were doubts,
GEDC#
you should be careful and unafraid
ABG
Now, they surround you
F#
And all that amounts to
GEDC#
Is love that you fed by perversion and pain
BBBEmEmBBBDDEmEmD#C#
So if my affections are misunderstood
EmD#C#
And you decide I'm up to no good
Am
Don't ask me to
B
Enjoy them just for you
C#D#E
Ask yourself
BA#
why I would choose
BC#D
To prostitute myself
AG#
To live with fortune and shame, oh yeah
BC#D
when you should have turned to the hearts
AG#
Of the ones that you would not save
ABG
I told you when I found you
F#
And all that amounts to
GEDC#
Is love that you fed by perversion and pain
