Intro 
F C/E Dm Bb x2 


 
       F 
 Ive identified my first 
           C         Dm 
 Mistake as trying To justify 
  Bb                F 
 A rep that you did nothing 
             F 
 To avoid Too many times I took 
              C 
 The blame and now Ive had enough 
           Dm               Bb 
 Whats the point of making future 
                  F 
 Plans when youre lying from the start?  



Dm                  Bb 
  Finally have the nerve 
             F 
 To call you out The only 
C           Dm   C/E 
 Way that I know how 
Dm 
  Im done lying for your sake 
Bb 
  This is just more than I 
    F                  C 
 Can take Those bad tattoos 
          F C/E 
 Oh what a mistake 


 
F                 Gm      Bb 
  Call this just what it was

 Eyes Youre a monster 
Gm      Bb    Dm Bb 
 By your own design 
F            Gm    Bb

  Its alright for me 
              F 
 To feel this way 
     Gm    Bb Dm 
 Just wrong to keep 
   Bb     Bb 
 On faking it 
 

 
           F 
 Weve both wasted enough 
          C         Dm 
 Time by denying The truth 
           Bb 
 In how you knw I felt 
         F 
 Face the fact: you nver 
      F 
 Cared Made it through my best 
             C 
 Year without ever looking back 
      Dm 
 If it comes to pass and 
    Bb             F 
 You see my face I wish 
 Youd just forget my name
