Because Of You

• G

G           Bm7        Em                  D 
I will not make the same mistakes that you did 
G           Bm7   
I will not let myself 
Em                         D 
Cause my heart so much misery 
G           Bm7        Em 
I will not break the way you did, 
           D 
You fell so hard 
G                  Bm7          
I've learned the hard way 
     Em            Dsus  D   
To never let it get that far 


          Em       
Because of you 
            C           Dsus    D  Dsus   
I never stray too far from the sidewalk 
    D     Em      
Because of you 
                          C          Dsus      D   B    
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt 
              
            C      
Because of you 
                      G/B       Dsus                   B                      
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me 
             Cmaj7 (or C)      
Because of you 
         Dsus 
I am afraid 


G          Bm7 
I lose my way 
          Em                      D 
And it's not too long before you point it out 
G         Bm7 
I cannot cry 
      Em                           D 
Because you know that's weakness in your eyes 
G             Bm7 
I'm forced to fake 
    Em                  D           G 
A smile, a laugh everyday of my life 
                Bm7 
My heart can't possibly break 
         Em                 Dsus      D 
When it wasn't even whole to start with 

           Em       
Because of you 
            C         Dsus    D  Dsus        
I never stray too far from the sidewalk 
    D5      Em      
Because of you 
                          C             Dsus      D   B    
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt 
              
         C      
Because of you 
                      G/B       Dsus                   B                      
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me 
             Cmaj7 
Because of you 
         Dsus 
I am afraid 
             

        Bm       
I watched you die 
             Em          Dsus      D    
I heard you cry every night in your sleep 
          Bm 
I was so young 
    Em                  Dsus    D 
You should have known better than to lean on me 
           Bm                Em 
You never thought of anyone else 
                Dsus   D 
You just saw your pain 
          B                         Em       
And now I cry in the middle of the night 
          Cmaj7   Dsus  D  Dsus  D     
For the same damn thing 

            Em 
Because of you 
             C                 Dsus    D  Dsus                
I never stray too far from the sidewalk 
    D5      Em  
Because of you 
                         C                 Dsus     D       
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt 

         
            F#m 
Because of you 
       D             Esus   E  Esus    
I try my hardest just to forget everything 
    E5      F#m 
Because of you 
   D           Esus  E  C#  
I don't know how to let anyone else in 
            D  
Because of you 
           A/C#              Esus  C# 
I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty 
             D 
Because of you 
        Esus E 
I am afraid 
         F#m 
Because of you 
D             E 
Ooh, oohhh, ohhh 
                F#m    
Because of you  
         D    E    
Ooh, oohhh, ohhh
