[D]

[Verse 1]
Baby, how could I [D]have
been so [C#]vain
[D]To make you think that you're the
only one [F#]to blame.[G][F#]
For [G]all these distances
and [D]all of this pain
Baby, how could I have been [C#]so b[D]lind
To presup[C#]pose that your needs
[D]were just like [G]mine
You've been a prisoner for a [D]long,
long time.
But now you [A]run from me
And I [G]will set you freeIf that's
the [D]way it must be.
[Bm]I tr[D]ied so hard to
make you [C#]part [D]of me
That every time I looked at youI
thought I'd [G]see
Someone that you could never [D]ever be.
So full of pride that I could
not see straight
I thought you'd changeIf I could only [G]wait
I see the truth now [A]but
it's [D]much too late
Cause now you [A]run from me
And I [G]will set you freeIf that's
[D]the way it must be.
Oh--o[C#]h--baby [Bm]how'd how'd how'd
it ever get so [G]cold and [D]mean
Oh--oh.
[Bm]Is Is there nothing left but sil[G]ence in be[A]tween.
[Ab][A][D][Bm][D][G][D]

[Bm]Oh--oh--baby how'd how'd how'd
it ever get so [G]cold and [D]mean
[A]Oh--oh.
[Bm]Is Is there nothing left but si
[G]lence in [A]between.[D]
Baby how'd we hold on so long
To something both of us must
have known was [G]wrong
We're either fools or must
be [D]terrible strong.
Cause now you [A]run from me.
And I will [G]set you freeIf that's
[D]the way it must be.
Oh--o[A]h--baby how'd how'd how'd
it [G]ever [D]get so cold [A]and mean
Oh--oh.
Is Is [G]there nothing left but silence [D]in between.
