Verse 1
~~~~~~~
(B)     (F#) (E)           (F#)  {Guitar 2}
 I can recall only this one time 
(B)          (F#)           (E)       (F#)  {Guitar 2}
 This kind of control a girl had on my mind
B         F#    G#          F#
I fall in deep, I can't get out
E                           F#
I've never acted this way before

Chorus
~~~~~~
B       E               G# F#
I spent days and nights in my bedroom
B  E                G#              F#
Tryin' to write the perfect song to sing to you
B       E              G#                F#
Write a song a day but she won't like it anyway
B           E
Back to the drawing board
         G#                   F#              E   F#
With the words you've heard a million times before

Verse 2
~~~~~~~
B       F#        G#          F# 
Feelin' alone and she's on my mind 
B      F#            G#             F#
Try to erase all the pain from that time
B             F#    G#           F#
She's breakin up and I'm breakin down
E                                    F#
Now I'm headed out of this ***ed up town

Chorus 2
~~~~~~~~
B       E               G# F#
I spent days and nights in my bedroom
B  E                G#              F#
Tryin' to write the perfect song to sing to you
B       E              G#                F#
Write a song a day but she won't like it anyway
B           E
Back to the drawing board
         G#                   F#              E               F#
With the words you've heard a million times before... in your head

Bridge
~~~~~~
   B    F#  G#  F#  E             F#
So love me,.........so I can be myself again
    B    F#  G#  F#  E                     F#
Now hate me,.........so things seem normal in my head
    B  F#  G#  F#  E                  F#
I'm tryin',........to break away this ball and chain
   B    F#  G#  F#  E                     
So hate me,.........so things seem normal in my head
F#
Things seem normal in my head
