Intro: B F# G#m E x4
B F#
Listen to me
G#m E
I've got to clear the air
B F# G#m E
There's something I've held way down deep inside all these years
B F#
You always were a friend
G#m E
You always trusted me
B F# G#m E
But now I must admit that I was not trustworthy
B F# G#m E
I let you down, I sold you out
B F# G#m E B
I turned away as you fell onto the ground
B F# G#m E
I... was scared
B F# G#m E
And I... was terrified
B F# G#m E B F# G#m E
I... was lost and so I shied away
B F# G#m E x2
B F# G#m E
And I don't know what I can do to make it up to you
B F#
I can't turn back the clock
G#m E
I can't rewrite the book
B F#
But if I could, the end would be happy
G#m E
You would be safe
B F# G#m E
And I would be proud to look at you when I look you in the face
B F# G#m E
I let you down, I sold you out
B F# G#m E B
I turned away as you fell onto the ground
B F# G#m E
I... was scared
B F# G#m E
And I... was terrified
B F# G#m E B F# G#m E
I... was lost and so I shied away
D# G#m
Though I love you
E F#
I was so afraid
D# G#m E F#
I could not think of anything to say
D# G#m
Though I loved you (Though I loved you)
C#m F#
Though I trusted you
B E
Though I needed you (Though I needed you)
B D#m
I was so afraid

I was so afraid (I was so afraid)
B F# G#m E x2
B F# G#m E
And I promise that I'll never ever do
B F# G#m E
The thing that I did on that day when I acted like the fool
B F#
I might get my ass beat
G#m E
My throat slit, and my fingers hacked
B F# G#m E
But I'll never miss another chance to watch my brother's back (And I got yours)
B F# G#m E
I let you down, I sold you out
B F# G#m E B
I turned away as you fell onto the ground
B F# G#m E
I... was scared
B F# G#m E
And I... was terrified
B F# G#m E B F# G#m E
I... was lost and so I shied away
B F# G#m E
I... was scared
B F# G#m E
And I... was terrified
B F# G#m E B F# G#m E
I... was lost and so I shied away
