[Verse 1]
F C
I should have seen it coming when the roses died,
D# A#
should have seen the end of the summer in your eyes
A#m F C
I should have listened when you said good night you really meant goodbye
F C
Baby ain't it funny, how you ever learn to fall
D# A#
You're really on your knees, when you think you're standing tall
A#m F C
But only fools are 'know-it-alls' and I played that fool for you
[Pre-Chorus 1]
A# Dm C
I cried and I cried there were nights that I died for you baby
A# Dm C -> Lick 1
I tried and I tried to deny that your love drove me crazy, baby
[Chorus]
F C Dm A#
If the love that I got for you is gone, if the river I cried ain't that long
F C A#
Then I'm wrong, yeah I'm wrong, this ain't a love song
[Verse 2]
F C
Baby, I thought you and me would stand the test of time
D# A#
Like we got away with the perfect crime,
A#m F C
But, we were just a legend in my mind I guess that I was blind
F C
Remember those nights dancing at the masquerade,
D# A#
The clowns wore smiles that wouldn't fade
A#m F C
You and I were the renegades, some things never change
[Pre-Chorus 2]
A# Dm C
It made me so mad 'cause I wanted it bad for us baby
A# Dm C
Now it's so sad that whatever we had, ain't worth saving -> Lick 1
[Chorus]
F C Dm A#
If the love that I got for you is gone, if the river I cried ain't that long
F C A#
Then I'm wrong, yeah I'm wrong, this ain't a love song
[Chorus 2]
F C Dm A#
If the pain that I'm feeling so strong, is the reason that I'm holding on
F C A#
Then I'm wrong, yeah I'm wrong, this ain't a love song -> Lick 1
