 Just talk yourself up and tear yourself down.
D5                                               G5
 You've hit your one wall, now find a way around.
G5                           A5                  E5      
 Well, what's the problem? You've got a lot of nerve.

Pre-Chorus:
D5    Bm
   So what did you think I would say?
                   Bm
No you can't run away, no you can't run away.
   Bm
So what did you think I would say?
                   Bm
No you can't run away, no you can't run away.

You wouldn't.

Chorus:
G5        A5           B5
  I never wanted to say this:
G5        D5           A5
  You never wanted to stay.
G5         A5              B5
  I put my faith in you, so much faith,
          G5        A5      D5
And then you just threw it away.

               You threw it away

Verse 2:
D5                                       G5
 I'm not so naive, my sorry eyes can see.
D5                                           G5
 The way you fight shy of almost everything.
G5                           A5                  E5      
Well, if you give up, you'll get what you deserve.

Pre-Chorus:
D5    Bm
   So what did you think I would say?
                   Bm
No you can't run away, no you can't run away.
   Bm
So what did you think I would say?
                   Bm
No you can't run away, no you can't run away.

Chorus:
G5        A5           B5

G5        D5           A5
  You never wanted to stay.
G5         A5              B5
  I put my faith in you, so much faith,
          G5        A5      D5    A5
And then you just threw it away.
Interlude:
C5  G5  E5           D5         C5 G5 D5
               You threw it away.

Bridge:
N.C.
You were finished long before we had even seen the start.
                      E5  D/F#  
Why don't you stand up, be 
G5 C5 G/B A5
a man about it?
          E5  D/F#      C5 B/B A5 D/F# G5
Fight with your bare hands about it now.

Chorus:
C5      G5            E5       D5
  I never wanted to say this (say this):
C5        G5             D5
  You never wanted to stay, well do you?
G5         A5              B5
  I put my faith in you, so much faith,
          G5        A5      D5    C5
And then you just threw it away.

C5      D5            E5

C5        G5             D5
  You never wanted to stay.
C5         D5              E5
  I put my faith in you, so much faith,
          C5        D5        G5    
And then you just threw it away.
