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