[D] [G] [C] [Em]
[D] [G]
You've got [Am] a lot of nerve to [C] say you are my [G] friend
When I [D] was down, [C] you [Em] just stood there [D] grinning
[C] [G] You've got [Am] a lot of nerve to say [C] you've got a helping hand [G] to lend
You just [D] want to [C] be on [Em] the side [D] that's winning
You [Am]
[D] [G] [F#] [D] [C#] [G]
say [Am] I let you down, [C] no it's not like [G] that
You're so [D] hurt, [C] why [Em] then don't [D] you show it
You [G]
say [Am] you've lost your faith, [C] that's not where [G] it's at
You have no [D] faith [C] to lose, [Em] and [D] you know it
I [G]
know [Am] the reason [C] you talk behind [G] my back
I used [D] to be [C] among [Em] the crowd [D] you're in with
Do [G]
you take [Am] me for such a fool [C] to think I'd need [G] contact
One [D] who tries [C] to hide, [Em] but they don't [D] know to begin with
[G] You see [Am] me on the street, [C] always [G] act surprised
You say how [D] are you, [C] good luck, [Em] I know [D] you don't mean it
[G]
When you [Am] know as well as I, you [C] never see me [G] paralyzed
Why [D] don't you [C] come out [Em] one time [D] and scream it
[G] Though I do [Am] not feel that good when [C] I see the heartbreak [G] you embrace
If I [D] was a Mr.
[C] Thief, [Em] perhaps [D] I'd rob him
And [G]
though I know [Am] you're dissatisfied with [C] your position and [G] your faith
Don't [D] you [C] understand [Em] it's not [D] my problem
I [G]
wish [Am] that for just one time [C] you could stand inside [G] my shoes
Just [D] for that [C] one [Em] moment I [D] could be you
[G] Yes, I wish [Am] that for just one time [C] you could stand inside [G] my shoes
Then [D] you'd know what [C] a drag [Em] it is [D] to see you
