[Intro]
(Riff 1)
G C D x4
[Verse 1]
G C D
All we seem to do is talk a-bout it
G Em
We always end up shouting about it
Am D Dsus4 D
There was a time when we could overcome it,
Am D Dsus4 D
But it's too late to say we'll just forget it
[Verse 2]
G C D
It's too bad that we had to break up
G Em
Too much said for us to ever make up
Am D Dsus4 D
I could get by if I could just forget you,
Am D Dsus4 D
But things remind me, and I feel so sad now

[Verse 2]
G C D
Same old feeling every time I see you,
G Em
And every avenue I walk, I'm behind you
Am D Dsus4 D
Your back is turned, and your eyes are closed, girl
Am D Dsus4 D
You move in circles that are out of my reach now

I could say I'm sorry,
Bm
But it's not the point, is it?
Em
You want to play your games, and
C* D*
You don't mind if I get hurt
