Cm  A#               F
Day one, it felt so high
                            Cm
You were selfish from the start
             A#            F
You couldn't open up your heart
                       Cm
You were ripping love apart
      A#             F
Day two, I felt the pain
                            Cm
Couldn't play your foolish game
        A#            F
Every step was dead wrong

Cm
Still I stand by what I said
Won't take this anymore
Won't take your lies
Won't take your hand
I'm breaking out the door

Chorus:
Cm   A#    D#
I've been broken since day one
Cm   A#    D#
You, your vicious like them all
    Cm               A# 
In what you say, in what you do
    D#
No more I take this shit from you
Cm   A#    D#
I've been broken since day one

Day three, you cut me cold
Left me wailing on my own
You got such a selfish soul
You don't deserve all I've shown
You ain't never gonna change
You'll always be so fake
And everything is just wrong

Still I stand by what I said
Won't take this anymore
Won't take your lies
Won't take your hand
I'm breaking out the door

Chorus

(You're never gonna change
and that's what's gonna be that)
You ain't changing for nobody
(I'm never gonna change
and that's what's gonna be that)
No, no, no, no, baby, no
(I'm never gonna change
and that's what's gonna be that)
I ain't changing for nobody no, no, no
(I'm never gonna change
and that's what's gonna be that)
