Intro: Riff

Verse1:

C          G          A              F 
its alright to tell me what you think about me
C         G        A          F
i wont try to argue or hold it against you

(same chords)
i know that youre leaving you must have your reasons
the season is calling your pictures are falling down

Riff

Verse2:
the steps that i retrace the sad look on your face
the timing and structure did you hear he fucked her 
a day late a buck short i'm writing the report
on losing and failing when i move i'm flailing now

CHORUS:

Co                     Go                  A 
and its happened once again i'll turn to a friend
                 F                                  Co
someone who understands and sees through the master plan
                   Go                              A
but now everybodys gone and i've been here for too long
                   F                G
to face this on my own well i guess this is growing up 

Riff

Verse3:
and maybe i'll see you at a movie sneak preview
you'll show up and walk by on the arm of that guy
and i'll smile and you'll wave we'll pretend its OK
this charade it wont last when hes gona i wont come back

CHORUS2:
and it'll happen once again you'll turn to a friend
someone that understands and sees thru the master plan
but now everybodys gone and youve been here for too long
to face this on your own well i guess this is growing up

(solo thingy that i dont know)

well i guess this is growing up

repeat Riff till end

INTRO:

  C5 (let it fade)
  She didn't mean to deceive you, believe me
           
  But sometimes the hardest part is conceiving

A5
  The good intentions that you had
F5
  Now only came to this
A5
  And although she saw the mark
D5    F5ii 
  The arrow missed.

  C5 (let it fade)
  It isn't exciting reciting the stories
           
  Of kind words turned hurting when routine get boring  

  A5
  Both getting tired of punk rock clubs
  F5
  And both playing in punk rock bands
  A5
  The start was something good
  D5  F5ii
  But some good things must end

RIFF 1:

  And she said, "It could never survive
  With such differing lives
  One home, one out on tour again

  We may never come back
  The strike of a match
  The candle's buring at both ends."


RIFF 1:(x2)

RIFF 2:(x2)

   And now she knows too much
   And I'm too fucked up
   It's awkward trying to make my move

   I'll pretend that I'm fine
   Show up right on time
   But I know I'll never be that cool


RIFF 3:

   A5                              
   I never wanted to hold you back
   F5                         A5
   I'm just trying to hold on
   D5     F5ii        
   But my chance is gone

RIFF 4:

   C5  G5                  F5
   I   know / just where / I stand / a boy
   
   Trapped in the body of a man and
   C5                               D5
   I'll take what you're willing to give
                            F5
   And I'll teach myself to live
                            G5
   With a walk-on part of a background shot
          A5    B5         
   From a movie I'm not in


RIFF 1:(x4)
(3rd & 4th time with heavy palm mute and words)
  
    She's so important
    And I'm so retarded

RIFF 3:
    
    A5
    And now I realize
    F5                              A5
    I should have kissed you in L.A.
     
    But I drove home all alone
    D5            F5ii
    As if I had a choice, anyway

RIFF 5:           
    
    G5                   D5
    Where are you coming from?
                         F5
    What are you running from?
                         G5
    Is it so hard to see?
                          D5
    And if you're feeling scared
                         F5
    Remember the time we shared
                      G5
    You know it meant everything (everything)
                           A5         B5 C5
    You know that it meant everything to me
    (C5)
    You know that it meant everything to me

  C

  Gii                    Fii
a loser a bum's what she called me when i drove her home
C
there's no more waiting and sure no more wasting
     Gii                    Fii
i've done all i can but she still wants to be left alone

               (i think i'm different)

Riff (x3 and a half)

Verse2:
i think its disgusting believing and trusting
if i gave a fuck there would be nothing for me to prove
although its amusing its slightly confusing

and i'll try not to argue
no one no one no one likes a drop out
mistakes are hard to undo
