AAmaj7 Ever since I was a kid at school
A7D I messed around with all the rules
DmAEA Apologized then realized I'm not different after all
Amaj7A7D Me & the boys thought we had it sussed Valentinos all of us
DmAEA My dad said we looked rediculous but boy we broke some hearts
Amaj7A7D In and out of jobs runnin free wagin war with society
DmAEA Some blank faces stare back at me & nothin ever changed
Amaj7A7D Promises made in the heat of the night creepin home before it got too light
DmAEA I wasted all that precious time and blamed it on the wine
ADEA I was only jo-king my dear (my dear)
DEF#m Looking for a way to hide my fear (my fear)
DEA What kind of fo-ol was I (was I)
Bm I could never win (never win) ......Riff
AAmaj7A7D Never found a comprimise collected lovers like butterflies
DmAEA Illusions of that grand first prize are slowly wasted
Amaj7A7D Suzie baby you were good to me givin' love unselfishly
DmA But you took it all too seriously
EA I guess it had to end
ADEA I was only jo-king my dear (my dear)
DEF#m Looking for a way to hide my fear (my fear)
DEA What kind of fo-ol was I (was I)
Bm I could never win (never win) ......Riff

AAmaj7A7D Now you ask me if I'm sincere that's the question that I always fear
DmAEA The first seven is never clear but I'll tell you what you wanna hear
Amaj7A7D I'll try to give you all you want but givin' love is not my strongest point
DmAEA If that's the case it's pointless goin' on I'd rather be alone
AAmaj7A7D 'Cause what I'm doin must be wrong pourin' my heart out in a song
DmAEA Owning up for prosperity for the whole damn world to see
AAmaj7A7D Quietly now while I turn a page Act 20's over without costume change
DmA The principal would like to leave the stage
EA
