Em Bm Am
Our battles are repetitious
Em Bm Am
if not broken poetry
Em Bm Am
And maybe that's the attraction
Em Bm Am
that you're as self-absorbed as me
[Pre-Chorus]
Am Em
You jumped to the conclusion and landed on my chest
Am D
Now how am I supposed to make you see
[Chorus]
Em D
I'll just write this down with hopes that you'll understand
Am G D Em
I will no longer be disciplined by the frustrations of an insecure man
D Am G
And while I kissed your face you'll know that I will no longer apologize for your former
D Em
lovers' mistakes
[Interlude]
Em Bm Am (x2)
[Verse]
Em Bm Am
My past is mine to keep
Em Bm Am
Now who are you to question me
Em Bm Am
Perhaps, someday you'll learn
Em Bm Am
Too bad it's not our turn
[Pre-Chorus]
Am Em
You jumped to the conclusion and landed on my chest
Am D
Now how am I supposed to make you see
[Chorus]
Em D
I'll just write this down with hopes that you'll understand
Am G D Em
I will no longer be disciplined by the frustrations of an insecure man
D Am G
And while I kissed your face you'll know that I will no longer apologize for your former
D Em
lovers' mistakes
[Bridge]

You set the standard for my future

You set the standard for my future (lovers)

You set the standard for my future (lovers)
Am Bm
You set the standard for my future (lovers)
Am Bm
You set the standard for my future (lovers)
Am D
You set the standard
[Chorus]
Em D
I'll just write this down with hopes that you'll understand
Am G D Em
I will no longer be disciplined by the frustrations of an insecure man
D Am G
And while I kissed your face you'll know that I will no longer apologize for your former
D Em
lovers' mistakes
G D Em D Am
I will write this down
G D Em
Former lovers' mistakes
