Intro: (Bb2/C) (F/A) (C) (C) x 2 

(C) I've heard the word (C6) going 'round town
They (Bb) say that you're making a (F) fool out of me
(C) Baby, it took me some (C6) time to come 'round
(Bb) To realize you were (F) not what you seem
(Dm7) Each day's passing - the (G) clock's been my friend
(Dm7) Helped me get back on (G) my feet again

  Like a (D) button off my shirt
  Just an everyday distraction
  You'd be (F/D) over re(C/D)acting if you (F/D) think that I still (C/D) hurt
  You're just a (D) button off my shirt
  And someday I will replace you
  I don't (F/D) care what I have (C/D) lost
  You got what (G6) you des(G7)erve

I was (Bb2/C) down, (F/A) down, (C) down
I was (Bb2/C) down (F/A) (C) 

(C) I'm not the first
And I (C6) won't be the last
To (Bb) make the mistake of be(F)lieving in you
(C) I don't intend to (C6) live in the past
(Bb) Just like they say
Some you (F) win, some you lose
(Dm7) You never loved me and you (G) made it plain
(Dm7) Now it's my turn and I'm (G) playing your game

  Like a (D) button off my shirt
  Just an everyday distraction
  You'd be (F/D) over re(C/D)acting if you (F/D) think that I still (C/D) hurt
  You're just a (D) button off my shirt
  And someday I will replace you
  I don't (F/D) care what I have (C/D) lost
  You got what (Esus) you des(E7)erve

(Fmaj7) Love and affection 
(G) You started (Fmaj7) changing directions
(G) You threw it a(Bb2/C)way (F/A) (C) 
Girl, you threw it a(Bb2/C)way (F/A) (C)  

Guitar Solo

(Dm7) You never loved me and you (G) made it plain
(Dm7) Now it's my turn to make (G) you understand

  Like a (D) button off my shirt
  Just an everyday distraction
  You'd be (F/D) over re(C/D)acting if you (F/D) think that I still (C/D) hurt
  You're just a (D) button off my shirt
  And someday I will replace you
  I don't (F/D) care what I have (C/D) lost
  You got what (G6) you des(G7)erve
  Like a (D) button off my shirt
  Just an everyday distraction
  You'd be (F/D) over re(C/D)acting if you (F/D) think that I still (C/D) hurt
  You're just a (D) button off my shirt
  And someday I will replace you
  I don't (F/D) care what I have (C/D) lost
  You got what (G6) you des(G7)erve
  Like a (D) button off my shirt
  Just an everyday distraction
  You'd be (F/D) over re(C/D)acting if you (F/D) think that I still (C/D) hurt
  You're just a (D) button off my shirt
  And some(NC)day I will replace you
