[Intro]
Eb

[Verse 1]

Eb
I can hear your laugh
Eb
It's ringing through the hallways
Eb
I can see your smile
Eb
It's what gets me through my hard days
Eb
And your words was suppose
Eb
To get me through my heartache,
Eb
Before my heartbreak

Cm                          Eb                                 Bb
     There's an emptiness that only few ever feel

And I somehow missed
                                           Cm
The meaning of love that is real
                     Eb                                             Bb
And it compliments my scars that will never heal

[Chorus]

                           Cm           Eb
Maybe I didn't deserve you
                                 Bb
Maybe I just couldn't cure you
                                         Cm         Eb
They told me that I didn't hurt you
                              Bb
Why do I feel like I turned you?
                               Cm         Eb
Maybe I don't understand it
                                     Bb
Tell me is this how you planned it?
                           Cm             Eb
Did you see us so stranded
                                    Bb
Maybe I'm to much too manage

[Verse 2]

Eb
And if you weren't gonna guide me
Eb
Why bring me into the light?
Eb
Must have done something
Eb
To make you want to run and hide
Eb
Why oh why didn't you just live your life?

Cm                                   Eb
And every girl needs a mother
                                  Bb
And damn it I needed you

Instead you duck for cover
                                     Cm
And you ran from the truth
                     Eb
And like kids do
                                    Bb
You waited around for proof

[Chorus]

                           Cm            Eb
Maybe I didn't deserve you
                                 Bb
Maybe I just couldn't cure you
                                        Cm         Eb
They told me that I didn't hurt you
                             Bb
Why do I feel like I turned you?
                               Cm         Eb
Maybe I don't understand it
                                     Bb
Tell me is this how you planned it?
                           Cm            Eb
Did you see us so stranded
                                     Bb
Maybe I'm to much too manage

Bb
Maybe I didn't deserve you
