Kelly Clarkson - Because Of Youadd

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

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

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

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

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

I try my hardest just to forget everything
    D
Because of you
        Bm                      A
I don't know how to let anyone else in
   D
Because of you
                   Bm     A
I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty
    D                 Bm
Because of you
   A
I am afraid

Because of you
    Bm  A
Ooh, oohhh, ohhh
