G#m                     E
Everybody's got their problems (problems).
B                  F#
Everbody says the same thing to you.
G#m                            E
It's just a matter of how you solve them (solve them),
B                              F#
And knowing how to change the things you've been through.

G#m          E
I feel I've come to realize
 B              F#
How fast life can be compromised.
G#m            E
Step back to see what's going on.
B          F#                    G#m E B F#
I can't believe this happened to you...
                  G#m E B F#
This happened to you...

It's just a problem that I'm faced with; am I
Not the only one who hates to stand by?
Complications that are first in this line
With all these pictures running through my mind

Knowing endless consequences
I feel so useless in this
Get back, step back, and as for me
I can't believe

Chorus:
       G#m
Part of me,
         E
Won't agree,
                 B               F#
'Cause I don't know if it's for sure.
     G#m
Suddenly,
       E
Suddenly,
          B          F#
I don't feel so insecure.
       G#m
Part of me,
         E
Won't agree,
                 B               F#
'Cause I don't know if it's for sure.
     G#m
Suddenly,
       E
Suddenly,
          B          F#
I don't feel so insecure.
    G#m
Anymore...

Everybody's got their problems
Everybody says the same things to you
It's just a matter how you solve them
But what else are we supposed to do?

Chorus

Why do things that matter the most
Never end up being what we chose
Now that I find no way so bad
I don't think I knew what I had
Why do things that matter the most
Never end up being what we chose
Now that I find no way so bad
I don't think I knew what I had
