 D# I made a critical A# F mistake in a momentary Gm D# A# F Gm lapse of judgement D# Now you've called me A# F up again to remind Gm me of the ways D# A# F Gm I've fucked up D# So then I'll A# take all the blame F It all just feels Gm D# the same And we move A# F Gm D# on Then I screw A# it up again Are you F Gm noticing a trend Should D# A# F Gm I go on? So I said Chorus: D# A# F I could be everything Gm D# you need If you could A# F learn to be someone Gm D# A# else I could try and F Gm abridge the distance D# A# You'd be thinking F Gm D# A# about yourself Gm It's the way you F want the world D# A# to be It's Gm F the way you want the world to be I'm the sinner, you're a saint You will always have your way Will you let go? But when a cynic and a snake come together It could take a miracle But it only lasts so long I know it won't be long 'till I screw up Can we start it all again And go back to when we were both wrong? 'Cause we're both wrong So I said Chorus D# And it always seemed Dm too perfect to be Gm true There's nothing F perfect about me and D# A#/D you And I tried to Gm see the best But I F saw right through you D# And I know I could be A#/D Gm better But you won't F let me forget That D# it always seemed so A#/D Gm perfect when I played F it in my head You made a critical mistake in a momentary lapse of judgement Now I'm walking out the door Like all those times before Guess I fucked up So I said Chorus D# A# Gm I could be everything F D# you need If you could A# Gm F learn to be someone else You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA#  D  D#  Dm  F  Gm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
