                           C
  While claiming that you love me
       Em           D
  You love me, you love me
 
  You said you loved me but that
   C                   Em               D
  I'm not good enough, I'm not good enough
 
 
  Bridge:
C            Em
  Your love feels different
D
  It's like a blow to the head with your compliments
C            Em
  Your love hurts deeper
D
  It's like a brick in the sea and I'm drowning with it
 
 
  Chorus:
C
  You didn't let me down
Em
  You didn't tear me apart
D
  You just opened my eyes
 
  While breaking my heart
C
  You didn't do it for me
Em
  I'm not as dumb as you think
D
  You just made me cry
                           C
  While claiming that you love me
       Em           D
  You love me, you love me

  So understand it means nothing when you say you love me, you love me
                    D
  When you say you love me
                    C
  When you say you love me
       Em           D
  You love me, you love me

  You know the truth is that

You can stop wasting my time

          Em
 I found something better, you'll see
Bm                           C
 While you were paying no attention to me
              D
 I found somebody who can treat me right
 
 
 Chorus:
                              Em    C

 G               D               Em        C
 Any chance you get to play the warn out pity card
 G         D         Em         C
 Any opportunity to push my buttons hard
 G             D          Em        C
 It's getting old, your "poor me" thoughts
 G            D           Em       C
 Believe me, boy, when I say "so what"
 
G      D     Em       C        G  D   Em   C
 This broken record thing has got to stop
G     D     Em       C        G  D   Em   C

 To you huuhuuh uuhuuhuuh

      G           D                  Em            C
 You wonder if I loved you from the start, well I tell you what
G          D        Em        C
 I knew a guy who changed my world
G              D      Em         C
 And then he grew into a little girl
 
G      D   Em    C      G    D   Em   C
 This metamorphosis is just too much
G        D        Em        C       G       D   Em   C
 You're crossing lines that I just can't let go on

Em             D                   G           C
 I guess it's true that love can grow in different directions
Em            D                  G            C
 I chose the high road and you chose to be a girl

G                D                  C
  I can see the wait there in your eyes
                    D             G
  I can feel the thought in your sigh
                       D                   C         D
  Your knuckles are bruised from a losing fight
G          D                 C
  One way down a dead end street
                D               G
  Broken glass underneath your feet
                 D                           C        D
  You think the day won't break the sunless night
 
 
                G         D
  The sun will riiiiiiiiiiise
                C         D

G                 D             C
  I've been stuck in a storm before
                 D            G
  Felt the wind raging at my door
                             D                      C      D
  Couldn't move, couldn't breathe, Couldn't find a way out
G                D            C           D          G
  Somehow the clouds disappeared, Somehow I made it here
                 D                 C      D
  Maybe just so you could hear me say
 
 
G         D

      D         Em
  So hard to believe it
       Bm             C             D
  Sometimes you just need a little faith 
             Bm               C
  There's an answer to your prayer
      D              Em             C

 Intro:    G     D     Em     F   x2
 
 
G        D
 I Am A woman
         Em
 Cut in two
       F
 By ambitious pride
G              D
 Stuck in my ways
          Em
 Between you 
        F
 And my other life
 
     Am                                               C
 Now I have been around enough to know when love has ended
     Am                                         D
 But I believe that you and I deserve to be extended
 
 
                   G       D
 So why don't you try
             Em
 To make me stay
            F
 When it's time to go
                 G       D
 Why don't you try
                 Em
 To stand in my way
           F
 Cause we both know
                  G
 I can't stop myself
 
 
             D
 Our empty house
          Em
 You occupy
           F
 When I'm far away
G           D              Em
 Heavier hearts won't justify
          F
 Why I'm gone today
 
    Am                                                C
 Now I have hung a cloud above our lives from always leaving
   Am                                               D
 Figured you would at least make me give a better reason
 
 
                   G       D
 So why don't you try
             Em
 To make me stay
            F
 When it's time to go
                 G       D
 Why don't you try
                 Em
 To stand in my way
           F
 Cause we both know
                  G
 I can't stop myself
 
 
Instrumental part:  G    D    Em    F   x2
(I have no idea how this part is really played in the recording so I just put that 
chord progression instead)
 
 
Am                              D
 In the early mornings when I'm up before dawn
Am                                      D
 You say "why don't you stay" but you keep sleeping on
 G                  F          E
 Maybe you're just used to me being gone
           Am                        D
 Cause if you know that I don't want to go
 
 
                   G       D      Em
 So why don't you try
            F
 When it's time to go
                 G       D
 Why don't you try
                 Em
 To stand in my way
           F
 Cause we both know
                  G
 I can't stop myself
 
       D
 Why don't you
      Em
 Why don't you try
            F
 When it's time to go, oh
 
       G
 Cause I don't want to have to go
                    D
 And be the one to leave you holding on alone
            Em
 But this, this is my goodbye
     F
 So why don't you try
 
 G    D    Em    F     x2
 
 End on G
