Start Over

Intro 
Am  F  C  G  

 
 Am 
If I could take a few words back 
     F 
I never would've made you feel like that 
    C 
But you hate me, and I blame me 
   G 
Cause I didn't see what we had 
    Am 
I gave my wreckage, and you gave it all 
    F 
You took the pain, but it ain't your fault 
        C 
Now I'm homesick, but you took it 
        G 
Cause I didn't break down my walls 
 

 
    Am 
If you don't wanna see me anymore 
  F 
Then lock your heart and slam the door 
   C 
Cause this burning can hurt like hell 
  G 
I'm reading the writing on the wall 
Am 
I was fine alone 'til you made me fall 
   F 
But my words and my thoughts 
  C 
I built this town just to burn it all 
  G 
 

 
  Am 
And now I just wanna start over 
   F 
I'll put out the fire that I smoldered 
  C 
Take the bad out of your hurt 
 G 
And take the tears out of your skirt 
  Am 
I'm not saying I'll never love again 
  F 
Cause it's yours 'til the hour of my death 
 G        C 
And maybe longer 
G 
Baby, I just wanna start over 
  Am 
Baby, I just wanna start over 
 

 
  Am 
I can still hear the yelling in my ear 
 F 
I thought I'd be fine without you here 
   C 
I was reckless and selfish 
  G 
Now I'm a little lost tryna see it clear 
 Am 
I left you standing in the pouring rain 
 F 
Thought you'd be cold so I gave you flames 
 C 
But I messed up and I left us 
   G 
I'd give anything take the pain 
 

 
  Am 
But you don't wanna see me anymore 
    F 
So lock your heart and slam the door 
C 
Cause this loving can hurt like hell 
 G 
I'm reading the writing on the wall 
  Am 
I was fine alone 'til you made me fall 
  F 
But my words and my thoughts 
 C 
I built this town just to burn it all 
G 
 

 
 Am 
If you don't wanna see me anymore 
  F 
Then lock your heart and slam the door 
 C 
Cause this burning can hurt like hell 
  G 
I'm reading the writing on the wall 
  Am 
I was fine alone 'til you made me fall 
 F 
But my words and my thoughts
