[Verse 1]

      Em   C   G          Em
But we are two worlds apart
      C     G       Em
Can't reach to your heart
     C   G
When you say
     Em        D    G
That I want it that way


[Chorus]

        C
Tell me why
                     D    Em
(Ain't nothin' but a heartache)
        C
Tell me why
                     D  Em           C
(Ain't nothin' but a mistake tell me why)
              D        G
I never wanna hear you say
Em        D    G
I want it that way


[Verse 2]

    Em    C G
Am I your fire
      Em   C G
Your one desire
        Em      C   G
Yes I know it's too late
    Em        D    G
But I want it that way


[Chorus]

        C
Tell me why
                     D    Em
(Ain't nothin' but a heartache)
        C
Tell me why
                     D  Em           C
(Ain't nothin' but a mistake tell me why)
              D        G
I never wanna hear you say
Em        Bsus4 B
I want it that  way


[Bridge]

Em                        Gm
Now I can see that we're fallin' apart
         C                    Am     D
From the way that it used to be, yeah
    Em                   Gm
No matter the distance I want you to know
     C                   Dsus4   D
That deep down inside of me

[Chorus]
N.C.
You are my fire
N.C.
The one desire
N.C.
You are, you are, you are, you are
