Because of You Chords by Kelly Clarkson

_ [Fm] _ _ [Db] _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ [Fm] _ _ [Db] _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
[Ab] I will [Cm] not make the [Fm] same mistakes [Eb] that you did
I [Ab] will [Cm] not let myself [Fm] cause my heart so much misery
[Ab] I will [Cm] not break the [Fm] way you did
You [Eb] fell so [Ab] hard
I've learned the [Cm] hard way
[Fm] To never let it get that [Eb] far
_ Because of you I never [Db] stray too far from [Eb] the sidewalk
_ Because [Fm] of you I learn to play on [Db] the safe sides
So I [Eb] don't get hurt
[C] Because [Bbm] of you I find it hard to [Ab] trust
Not only [Eb] me but everyone [C] around me
Because [Db] of you _ I am [Eb] afraid
_ _ [Ab] I learned [Cm] my way
And [Fm] it's not too long before you point [Ab] it out
I cannot [Cm] cry
[Fm] Because I know that weakness in [Ab] your eyes
I'm forced [Cm] to fake a [Fm] smile, a laugh
Every day of [Ab] my life
My heart [Cm] can't possibly break
[Fm] When it wasn't even whole
[Eb] To _ _ _ [Fm] never [Db] stray too far [Eb] from the sidewalk
Because [Fm] of you I learn to play [Db] on the safe sides
So I [Eb] don't get hurt
[C] Because [Bbm] of you I find it hard [Ab] to trust
Not only [Eb] me but everyone [C] around me
Because [Db] of you _ I am [Eb] afraid
_ I watched [C] you die
I heard [Fm] you cry every night in your [Eb] sleep
I was [C] so young you should [Fm] have known
Better than [Ab] to lean on me
You never [Cm] thought of [Fm] anyone else
You just [Eb] saw your pain
Because [Cm] _ _ [Fm] _
_ [Eb] _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _
[Fm] of you I never [Db] stray too far [Ebm] from the [F] sidewalk
Because [Fm] of you I learn to play [Db] on the safe sides
So [Eb] I don't get hurt
Because [Gm] of you I try my hardest [Eb] just to forget [F] everything
Because [Gm] of you I don't know how [Eb] to _ [F] _ [D] live
Because [Cm] of you I'm ashamed of [Bb] myself
Because [F] it's empty
_ [D]
Because [Eb] of you I'm [F] afraid _
Because [Gm] of you
[Eb] _ _ [F] _ _
Because [Gm] of you
_ [Eb] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
