Kelly Clarkson - Because Of Youadd

G             D            Em           D
I will not make the same mistakes that you did
G            D
I will not let myself
Em                      D
Cause my heart so much misery
G          D        Em
I will not break the way you did,
          C
You fell so hard
G                      D
I've learned the hard way
        C            D
To never let it get that far

       G
Because of you
           Em                D
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
                  G
Because of you
                       Em                        D
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
                  G
Because of you
                 C                D            Em
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
      G
Because of you
         D
I am afraid

G       D
I lose my way
            Em                D       G
And it's not too long before you point it out
              D
I cannot cry
Em                  D                        G
Because you know that's weakness in your eyes
             D
I'm forced to fake
    Em                  D                  G
A smile, a laugh everyday of my life
                       D
My heart can't possibly break
              C            D
When it wasn't even whole to start with

     G
Because of you
           Em          D
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
     G
Because of you
                  Em                        D
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
                  G
Because of you
       C             D                               Em
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
    G
Because of you
         D
I am afraid

          G
I watched you die
             D                 A
I heard you cry every night in your sleep
              G
I was so young
                     Em       A
You should have known better than to lean on me
                G     D
You never thought of anyone else
             A
You just saw your pain
           G          C
And now I cry in the middle of the night
       Bb      B      C#
For the same damn thing

   G
Because of you
       Em             D

Because of you
          Em              D
I try my hardest just to forget everything
    G
Because of you
        Em                      D
I don't know how to let anyone else in
   G
Because of you
                   Em     D
I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty
    G                 Em
Because of you
   D
I am afraid
    G
Because of you
    Em  D
Ooh, oohhh, ohhh

Because of you
    Em  D
Ooh, oohhh, ohhh
G
