[Verse 1]
Fm
Fight after fight
C#
Break after break
Night after night
G#
Lying awake
D#
I can't find rest
Fm
Watching you walk
C#
Watching you laugh
Watching you talk
G#
It cuts me in half
D#
'Cause no matter how I dress
Fm C# Fm C#
I can't be enough
Fm C# D#
I was never enough
[Chorus]
C#
'Cause you like the bad boys
With the long black hair
G#
With their crooked smile
And their death trap stare
D# Fm
And I, no, I'll never compare
C#
'Cause we were through before we could start
G#
'Cause he was tattoed on the back of your heart
D#
But when he's busy
Fm
Breaking it apart
C# D#
Know that I will always be
Fm
the one to save it
C# D#
Know that I will alway be
Fm
Your mother's favorite
[Instrumental]

Fm
Week after week
C#
Mile after mile
Unable to speak
G#
Unable to smile
D#
I've made it through
Fm
Word after word
C#
Day after day
What I've never heard
G#
Unable to say
D#
To someone new
Fm C# Fm C#
I love you
Fm C# D#
I loved you
[Chorus]
C#
But you like the bad boys
With the long black hair
G#
With their crooked smile
And their death trap stare

And I, no, I'll never compare
C#
'Cause we were through before we could start

Your mother's favorite
[Bridge]
C# G#
Stop, stop, stop breaking me down
D#
Stop, stop, stop turning me round
Fm
Stop, stop, stop this war
C# G#
I,I, I've learned how to fall
D#
For, for, for the person who calls me
Fm
All they were looking for
[Chorus]
C#
But you like the bad boys
With the long black hair
G#
With their crooked smile
And their death trap stare
D# Fm
And I, no, I'll never compare
C#
And that's when she came
Like a brand new start
G#
Now, she's the new name on the back of my heart
D#
And when you're busy
Fm
Getting torn apart
C# D#
Know that I won't ever be
Fm
The one to save it
C# D#
Know that I will always be
