(Verse)
B F# E
There are things that used to make me smile
B F# E
One of them was you for just a little while
B
You left me for dead so far away
F# E
I replaced you with fear and shame
B F# E
You'll be happy on the day I die

B F# E
There are things that used to make me laugh
B F# E
But now they're deeply buried in the past
B
I left them there so far away
F# E
Replaced my humor with my pain
B F# E
I'll be happy on the day it dies
(Chorus)
B Abm F#
Remember when I said I love you
B Abm F# B
Well, forget it I take it back
Abm F# E
I was just a stupid kid back then
F# E B
I take back every word that I said
