[C#m] You, [Bm] with your words [Em] like [A] knives and swords and weapons that you use [C#m] against me
You, [B] have knocked me off my [A] feet again, got me feeling [C#m] like a nothing
You, [B] with your voice like nails [A] on a chalkboard, calling me out when [C#m] I'm wounded
You, [B] picking on the weaker [A] men, [B] you can take me [E] down with just [A] one single [B] blow
[A] What you don't know, what you don't know
[E] Someday [B] [C#m] I'll be living in a [A] bigger [E] city
And all [B] you're ever [E] gonna be [A] is me
[E] Someday [B] [C#m] I'll be begging so you [A] can have me
[E] And all [B] you're ever gonna be [A] is me
Why you [E] gotta be so mean?

[E] [C#m] [B] will you switch sides [A] when your wifi lies and you keep [C#m] me reaching you?
[B] I pointed out [A] my flaws again as if I don't already see [C#m] them
I [B] walk with my head down, [A] trying to find you out, but there's no way to [C#m] press you out
[B] Just wanna feel [A] okay again
I [B] bet you got pushed [Em] around
[A] Somebody made you [B] cold
But the cycle ends right [A] now, cause you can't leave me down that road
What you don't know, what you [Em] don't know
