intro: Em C G D

Em            C                        G    
I tried to be perfect, but nothing was worth it
        D
I don't believe it makes me real
Em                C                  G
I thought it'd be easy, but no one believes me
      D
I meant all the things that I said.


C                         G
If you believe it's in my soul
      D
I'd say all the words that I know
C                       G
Just to see if it would show
       D                 C
That I'm trying to let you know
                        Em
That I'm better off on my own.


Em               C
This place is so empty
                 G
My thoughts are so tempting
           D
I don't know how it got so bad
Em                C
Sometimes it's so crazy
               G
That nothing can save me,
           D
But it's the only thing that I have.


C                         G
If you believe it's in my soul
      D
I'd say all the words that I know
C                       G
Just to see if it would show
       D                 C
That I'm trying to let you know
                        G                  
That I'm better off on my own.

I tried to be perfect it just wasn't worth it
            D
Nothing could ever be so wrong
Em           C
It's hard to believe me
            G
It never gets easy
        D
I guess I knew that all along.
