Now that you surround yourself with thieves
Em
Where is the good you shared with me
Fmaj7 Em
Private keys are used just to unlock it
Fmaj7 Em Gsus G
Everybody's hands in someone else's pocket
Cmaj7
Everyone's a fool who's not like you
Em
Everybody's doing what you do
Fmaj7 Em
Why should you pay if someone else is buying
Fmaj7 Em Gsus G
You won't tell the truth cause everybody's lying
Am Em
No one wants to be reminded
Fmaj7 E
No one likes to hear their best is far behind them
Am Gsus G
I don't want to the good example
Fmaj7 Gsus G
I don't want to be the good example
Cmaj7
If this gives you the power to be right
Em
No matter what your doing in your life
Fmaj7 Em
Secret of the bedroom have been opened to you
Fmaj7 Em Gsus G
Critizing others for the same things you do
Am Em
No one wants to be reminded
Fmaj7 E
No one likes to hear their best is far behind them
Am Gsus G
I don't want to the good example
Fmaj7 Gsus G
I don't want to be the good example
Cmaj7 Em G
Oh
C7
You must justify the thing you do
F
And are not concerned with my opinion
C7 F
I recall the good that was in you when we were young
D E
Before you closed the door
Am Am/G Am/F# G Am Am/G Am/F# G
What's happened to you what's happened to you
Cmaj7
Now you surround yourself with thieves
Em
Ignoring things that we use to believe
Fmaj7 Em
You won't change because success is far too tempting
Fmaj7 Em Gsus G
One day you'll awake and find your heart so empty
Cmaj7
I have made mistakes but not like you
Em
I have changed my life because of you
Fmaj7 Em
I was there for you when you were poor and needy
Fmaj7 Em Gsus G
I would never do someone the way you did me
Am Em
No one wants to be reminded
Fmaj7 E
No one likes to hear their best is far behind them
Am G
I don't want to the good example
Fmaj7 Gsus G
I don't want to be the good example
