Mess Up
Capo:no capo
[Intro]
F - C - Bb - Dm - Am - Bb
[Verse]
F Bb
I sure messed up when i met you
Dm Gm C
You took my heart and ran away
F Bb
Now I'm thinking to myself baby
Dm C F
Things may never be the same
Gm F C Bb C
You ran, so far away, i wish you'd stay, but now you're gone
[Chorus]
F C Bb
And now we're torn apart, a thousand miles away
Dm C Bb
Searching for a way to make today a little bit brighter
F C Bb Dm Am
And there's a thousand words we never meant to say, so we keep holding on,
Bb F C
holding on burning through the night like fire
Bb Dm F Bb
Through the night like fire
[Verse]
F Bb
I sure messed up when i met you
Dm C
You stole my heart what could i do
F Bb Dm C
I need you with me, and that's the truth, 'cause all i want is you
[Chorus]
F C Bb
And now we're torn apart, a thousand miles away
Dm C Bb
Searching for a way to make today a little bit brighter
F C Bb Dm Am
And there's a thousand words we never meant to say, so we keep holding on,
Bb F C
holding on burning through the night like fire
Bb Dm F Bb
Through the night like fire
[Outro]
C Bb
And i know, i mess up, i feel like such a screw up
C Bb
We feel like such a wreck, my mind is losing it
C Bb
I can't be a loser, i feel like such a mess up
C Bb
I'm over, I'm not the best
[Chorus]
F Bb
And now we're torn apart, a thousand miles away
F Bb
Searching for a way to make today a little bit brighter
F C Bb F Dm
And there's a thousand words we never meant to say, so we keep holding on,
Bb F C
holding on burning through the night like fire
Bb Dm Am F
Through the night like fire
