Kelly Clarkson - Because Of Youadd

C#             G#            A#m           G#
I will not make the same mistakes that you did
C#            G#
I will not let myself
A#m                      G#
Cause my heart so much misery
C#          G#        A#m
I will not break the way you did,
          F#
You fell so hard
C#                      G#
I've learned the hard way
        F#            G#
To never let it get that far

       C#
Because of you
           A#m                G#
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
                  C#
Because of you
                       A#m                        G#
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
                  C#
Because of you
                 F#                G#            A#m
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
      C#
Because of you
         G#
I am afraid

C#       G#
I lose my way
            A#m                G#       C#
And it's not too long before you point it out
              G#
I cannot cry
A#m                  G#                        C#
Because you know that's weakness in your eyes
             G#
I'm forced to fake
    A#m                  G#                  C#
A smile, a laugh everyday of my life
                       G#
My heart can't possibly break
              F#            G#
When it wasn't even whole to start with

     C#
Because of you
           A#m          G#
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
     C#
Because of you
                  A#m                        G#
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
                  C#
Because of you
       F#             G#                               A#m
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
    C#
Because of you
         G#
I am afraid

          C#
I watched you die
             G#                 D#
I heard you cry every night in your sleep
              C#
I was so young
                     A#m       D#
You should have known better than to lean on me
                C#     G#
You never thought of anyone else
             D#
You just saw your pain
           C#          F#
And now I cry in the middle of the night
       E      F      G
For the same damn thing

I never stray too far from the sidewalk

   C#
Because of you
          A#m              G#
I try my hardest just to forget everything
    C#
Because of you
        A#m                      G#
I don't know how to let anyone else in
   C#
Because of you
                   A#m     G#
I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty
    C#                 A#m
Because of you
   G#
I am afraid
    C#
Because of you
    A#m  G#
Ooh, oohhh, ohhh
