Kelly Clarkson - Because Of Youadd

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

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

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

     E
Because of you
           C#m          B
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
     E
Because of you
                  C#m                        B

I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
    E
Because of you
         B
I am afraid

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

Because of you

I don't know how to let anyone else in
   E
Because of you

I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty

I am afraid
