Introduction:

difficulty
very easy |||||
 C5                                           D5 
    What if I wanted to break
                                           E5 
Laugh it all off in your face
                                 B5 
What would you do?
 C5                                               D5 
    What if I fell to the floor
                                                       E5 
Couldn' t take all this anymore
                                 B5 
What would you do, do, do?

   C5               D5 
Look in my eyes
You' re killing me, killing me
 E5                               B5 
All I wanted was you
 A5                             B5         E5 
    I tried to be someone else
