Intro.:  --- | (D)  | (D)  | (G)  | (G)  | (D)  | (Em) (A) | (D)  | (D) --

I'll (D)pack up all my things and walk away
I don't want to hear another word you have to say (A)
(D)I've been waitin' (D7)for so long, I (G)just found out there's somethin' wrong
And (D)nothin' will get (Em)better (A)if I (D)stay

There's (D)no need to explain anymore
I tried my best to love you, now I'm walkin' out the (A)door
You (D)used me, you de-(D7)ceived me, and you (G)never seemed to (Gm)need me
But I'll (D)bet you won't for-(Em)get me (A)when I (D)go

(A)Seems I've been (D)lost in a dream, pretendin' that you care
But now I've opened up my eyes, and found it's (A)all been just a great big fairy-(D)tale

I've been (G)lovin' you so long, I don't think I even know how to for-(D)get you
And the (G)way that things have been, I think I'm better off alone, than to be (A)with you

You don't love me, it's plain to (D)see, there's no need to explain anymore
I tried my best to love you, now I'm walkin' out the (A)door
You (D)used me, you de-(D7/C)ceived me, and you (G/B)never seemed to (Gm/Bb)need me
But I'll bet (D) you won't for-(Em)get me (A)when I (D)go

(A)Seems like I've been (D)lost in a dream, pretendin' that you care
Someday you'll open up your eyes, and real-(A)ize a good man is hard to find (D)

You have been (D)lost in a dream, pretendin' that you care
And now I'll open up my eyes, and real-(A)ize --- fade out
