[Intro]
 Gadd9  Em  Am  Bm  C
 
[Chorus]
Gadd9     Em                          Am Bm C
  You say,  I only hear what I want to 
Gadd9         Em                       Am Bm C
  And you say,  I talk so all the time,  so 
Am7                   Gadd9
 And I thought what I felt was simple
Am7                   Gadd9
 And I thought that I don't belong
Am7           Gadd9
 And now that I am leavin
Am7                Gadd9                       Cadd9
 Now I know that I did something wrong cause I missed you
Cm         C         G C G
 Yeah, I missed you 
 
[Verse]
Gadd9         Em7
 And you say,  I only hear what I want to
  Am7
I don't listen hard
  Bm                         Cadd9
I don't pay attention to the distance that you're running or to anyone, anywhere
 Am7         Bm
I don't understand if you really care
    Cadd9
I'm only hearing negative, no no no bad
     Am7               Gadd9                 Am7
So I, turned the radio on I turned the radio up 
                    Gadd9
And this woman was singing my song
Am7                      Gadd9
Lover's in love  and the other's run away
Am7                       Gadd9
Lover is crying cause the other won't stay
Am7                       Gadd9                      Am7
 Some of us hover when we weep for the other who was dying
                        Gadd9
Since the day they were born well
     Am7
Well, this is not that      
Gadd9                             Am7      Gadd9
I think that I'm throwing but I'm thrown 
 
[Chorus]
      Am7
And I thought I'd live forever but now I'm not so sure
           Cadd9
You try to tell me that I'm clever but that won't take me anyhow
Am7          Gadd9       Am G
 Or anywhere, with you 
Am7                  Gadd9
 And you said that I was naïve 
    Am7               Gadd9
And, I thought that I was strong
Am7                   Gadd9
 I thought "hey I can leave, I can leave"
Am7                 Gadd9               Cadd9
But now I know that I was wrong cause I missed you       
Cm     C         G C G
 Yeah, missed you 
 
[Outro]
             Am7
You said you caught me cause you want me and one day I'll let you go 
           Cadd9
You try to give away a keeper or keep me cause you're know
                Am7          Bm    Cadd9
You're  just so  scared to lose 
             Gadd9  Em7      Am Bm C
And you say,         stay
Gadd9    Em7                           Am Bm C
 You say,  I only hear what I want to

I suggest using a Gadd9 instead of a G : Gadd9 (3XXX35) Also a Cadd9 instead of a C : Cadd9 ( X30033 ) On the Minor Chords: Em & Am, make then Em7 & Am7

Lack of accuracy. There's no Bm. it's a G/B on a more minor point the layout dies not scroll at a steady rate on screen using the "play" function. it's too fast at the start and to slow at the end. try to have the same number of bars of music per line in the layout.
