[VERSE I]
 
C#m                         E               B
I wonder if you'll notice, if they lock me up and throw away the key,
C#m                         E               B
Gotta be open minded, you've got a lot to learn in the ways of me,
C#m
You've always got to say something,
E                  B
I'm none of your concern but you won't listen at all,
C#m                               E
You know I'd rather say nothing, and just be proud of myself,
B
I'm tearing down these walls!
 
 
[CHORUS I]
 
 
A        E          B
When you fall, I'll be the only one who looks away,
A        E          B
When you call, I'll be the first to tell you I can't stay,
A        E          B                     A          E       B
It's all over, I've found a better way to help keep you from me, 
B
I'm better off this way,
A        E     B
Wo-A-oh, wo-A-oh!

You gotta keep this coming, tell me like you know it but you don't know,
               C#m
nothing. your call,
                                      E                             B
We can settle this like "gentlemen", or meet me at the back to end it all, 
 
and start again.
C#m                                 E
My whole life's been waiting, ever since I can remember,
      B                 C#m
Been anticipating your fall, and God let it be a long one,
E                  B                         A
Can't let go of my grudge till I know you're done.

It's all over, I've found a better way to help keep you from me,
