Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
You  walked into my house last night
I  couldn't help but notice
A  light that was long gone out still burning  strong
You  were sitting
 Your fingers  like fuses
 Your eyes  were cinnamon
 You said you stand for every known abuse
 That was ever threatened to anyone but you
 And why should I know better by now
 When I'm old enough not to
 While every line speaks the language of love
 It never held the meaning I was thinking of
 And I can't decide between right or wrong
 I guess sometimes you need the place where you belong
 Some may sing the wrong verse to the wrong melody
 It's little things like this that matter to me
 Other feel that you should stand
 For every known abuse to hand
 And all the things that they could never see
 You said you stood for every known abuse
 That was promised to anyone like you
 Don't you wish you knew better by now
 When you're old enough not to
 When every line speaks the language of love
 And never held the meaning I was thinking of
 And I can't decide over right or wrong
 You left the feeling that I just do not belong
 Do not belong, do not belong, do not belong
One  drink too many
 And a joke gone too far
 I see a face drive a stolen car
 Gets  harder to hide
 When you're hitching a ride
 Harder to hide what you really saw
 Oh yeah you stand for every know abuse
 That I've ever seen my way through
 Don't you wish you knew better by now
 Well I think I'm starting to
 When every line speaks the language of love
 And never held the meaning I was thinking of
 And I've lost the line between right or wrong
 I just wanna find the place where I belong
 (Cello solo)
 Why should you know better by now
 When you're old enough not to
 I wish i knew better by now
 When I'm old enough not to
 (Cello solo)

[Bm]You walked into my house last night
[D]I couldn't help but notice
[A]A light that was long gone out still [E]burning strong
[Bm]You were sitting
Your [D]fingers like fuses
Your [A]eyes were cinna[E]mon

You said you stand for every known abuse
That was ever threatened to anyone but you
And why should I know better by now
When I'm old enough not to

While every line speaks the language of love
It never held the meaning I was thinking of
And I can't decide between right or wrong
I guess sometimes you need the place where you belong

Some may sing the wrong verse to the wrong melody
It's little things like this that matter to me
Other feel that you should stand
For every known abuse to hand
And all the things that they could never see

You said you stood for every known abuse
That was promised to anyone like you
Don't you wish you knew better by now
When you're old enough not to

When every line speaks the language of love
And never held the meaning I was thinking of
And I can't decide over right or wrong
You left the feeling that I just do not belong
Do not belong, do not belong, do not belong

And a joke gone too far
I see a face drive a stolen car
Gets[E] harder to hide
When you're hitching a ride
Harder to hide what you really saw

Oh yeah you stand for every know abuse
That I've ever seen my way through
Don't you wish you knew better by now
Well I think I'm starting to

When every line speaks the language of love
And never held the meaning I was thinking of
And I've lost the line between right or wrong
I just wanna find the place where I belong

Why should you know better by now
When you're old enough not to
I wish i knew better by now
When I'm old enough not to
