A#         Dm                       Gm   D#
I can't believe its been all these years
A#        Dm                        Gm   D#
I can't believe I've cried all these tears
      A#               Dm
My friends tell me I should've moved on
    Gm        D#
A long long time ago
                  A#   Dm
But what do they know?
         Gm       D#
What do they know?

Chorus:
       A#               Dm
And I don't mean to be selfish
        Gm                 D#
But my heart breaks every time
                 A# Dm Gm D#
That I see you smile
           A#           Dm
'Cause I know that it's not me
      Gm              D#     A# Dm Gm D#
Who brings it out of you anymore
                    A#
You found somebody new
                   Dm
You put me in the past
              Gm                        D#
I don't even know if our memories will last
            A# Dm                Gm          D#
But if by chance it doesn't work out with her
                       A# Dm             Gm   D#
You'll always have a chance with me in my world

I wonder what happens when you hear our song
Do you brush it away or do you sing along?
Do you talk about the future the way we did?
Is there room for me in it?
Is there room for me in it?

Chorus

A#         Dm            Gm                   D#
Is it so wrong of me to hope she breaks your heart?
A#         Dm            Gm                  D#
Is it so wrong of me to pray she tears you apart?
       A#               D       D7     Gm  D#
And I know that in the darkest part of you
     A#                D          Gm D#
You pray and hope and wish for it too

Chorus:
'Cause you don't mean to be selfish
But your heart breaks every time
That you see me smile
'Cause you know that it's not you
Who brings it out of me anymore
You found somebody new
You put me in the past
I don't even know if our memories will last
But if by chance it doesn't work out with her
You'll always have a chance with me in my world
