Dm
Oh God it hurt the moment that I saw you
F
With someone else the one that you belonged to
C                                       A#
I never thought I'd drown in my shallow heart

I'd like to say the things I never used to
But come today they won't ever be useful
I never learned to use my shallow heart

Chorus:
Dm                           F
I I I, I never meant to hurt you
                       C
It's just something I do
                        A#
I guess it's not a good excuse
A#
And she will always hate me
Dm
No matter what I say
F                               C
And there is no mistaking, the love is gone
Yea she will always hate me
She said "you lost me baby"
No matter what I say, the love is gone

Looking back I guess I'm holding on to
The good we had but I know that it's wrong too
'Cause in the end she's never gonna hold my heart
And now she knows, she doesn't wanna know me
I'm not supposed to be the one who's lonely
I never thought that she could have a cold cold heart

Chorus - x2
