Strum
D-DU-UDU
I  never knew perfection til
 I heard  you speak, and now it kills me
Just  to hear you say the simple things
 Now waking  up is hard to do
 And sleeping  is impossible too
Everything  is reminding me of you
What  can I do?
It’s  not right, not  OK
Say  the words  that you say
 Maybe we’re better  off this way?
I’m  not fine,  I’m in pain
It’s  harder everyday
 Maybe we’re better  off this way?
 It’s better that we break
 A fool  to let you slip away
 I chase  you just to hear you say
 You’re scared  and that you think that I’m insane
 The city  look so nice from here
Pity  I can’t see it clearly
While  you’re standing there, it disappears
 It disappears
It’s  not right, not  OK
Say  the words  that you say
 Maybe we’re better  off this way?
I’m  not fine,  I’m in pain
It’s  harder everyday
 Maybe we’re better  off this way?
 It’s better that we break…
Saw  you sitting all alone
 You’re fragile  and you’re cold,  but that’s all right
Life  these days is getting rough
 They’ve knocked  you down and beat you up
 But it’s just  a rollercoaster anyway,  yeah
It’s  not right, not  OK
Say  the words  that you say
 Maybe we’re better  off this way?
I’m  not fine,  I’m in pain
It’s  harder everyday
 Maybe we’re better  off this way?
It’s  not right, not  OK
Say  the words  that you say
 Maybe we’re better  off this way?
I’m  not fine,  I’m in pain
It’s  harder everyday
 Maybe we’re better  off this way?
 It’s better that we break…baby
