Version 1 Version 2 Version 3 Version 4 Version 5

            [Intro]

Em  C    Dsus    D     Em   C     D5      Dadd4


[Verse 1]

G5           Bm          Emadd9                 Em
  I will not make the same    mistakes that you    did,
D   G5           Bm         Emadd9                 Em      D
 I      will not let myself cause my heart so much misery.
G5            Bm          Emadd9           Em      D
  I will not break the way    you did, you fell so hard,
G                       Bm         Emadd9      Em             D5
   I've learned the hard   way to never let it get that far...


[Chorus]

Dsus    D     Em              Cmaj7                   D
   Because of you I never stray     too far from the sidewalk,
           Em                           Cmaj7                D
Because of you I learned to play on the safe side so I don't  get hurt,
          Am7                    G/B               D                  B7
Because of you I find it hard to trust not only me,  but everyone around me,
               Cmaj7             Dadd2
Because of you,      I am afraid...


[Verse 2]

G5           Bm            Emadd9            Em  D           G5
   I lose my way, and it's not too long before  you point it out,
         Bm      Emadd9               Em         D           G5
I cannot cry, because you know that's weakness in   your eyes;
              Bm          Emadd9           Em      D        G
I'm forced to fake, a smile,      a laugh, everyday   of my life
               Bm                     Emadd9       Em             D5        Dsus
My heart can't possibly break, when it wasn't even whole to start    with...


[Chorus]

   D       Em              Cmaj7                   D
Because of you I never stray     too far from the sidewalk,
           Em                           Cmaj7                D
Because of you I learned to play on the safe side so I don't  get hurt,
          Am7                    G/B               D                   B7
Because of you I find it hard to trust not only me,   but everyone around me,
               Cmaj7              Dadd4    D
Because of you,       I am afraid...


[Bridge]

              Bm               Em                     D
I watched you die, I heard you cry every night in your  sleep...
         Bm                      Em                     D
I was so young, you should have known better than to lean on me.
             Bm               Em                Dsus
  You never thought of anyone else, you just saw your pain,
D            Bm                       Em            Dsus        D         Dsus    D    Dsus2
   and now I cry in the middle of the night, for the same damn thing...


[Outro]

  D5         Em              C2                   D        Dsus
Because of you I never stray    too far from the sidewalk,
D             Em                           C2                  D5
   because of you I learned to play on the safe side so I don't   get hurt
           F#m                  Dmaj7             E
Because of you I try my hardest just to forget everything,
           F#m                      Dmaj7          E
because of you I don't know how to let anyone else   in.
               Bm7                  A/C#               E7
Because of you    I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty
C#7             Dmaj7              E
  because of you,      I am, afraid...
              F#m    D     E   Esus
Because of you....
   E5        F#m    D      E
Because of you......
