~~~~~

Verse 1
~~~~~~~
D#                     A#
When I was young I was so full of fear
  F                    G#
I hid behind anger and held back the tears
       D#                             A#
It was me against the world and I was sure that I'd win
        F                             G#
But the world fought back punished me for my sins
  D#                A#
I felt so alone so insecure
  F                           G#
I blamed you instead and made sure I was heard
         D#                     A#
And they tried to warn me of my evil ways
      F               G#
But I couldn't hear what they had to say

Chorus
~~~~~~
D#       A#  F               G#
I was wrong self destruction got me again
D#      A#   F               G#
I was wrong I realise now that I was wrong

Verse 2
~~~~~~~
      D#                             A#
And I think about my loves well I've had a few
    F                             G#
I'm sorry that I hurt them, did I hurt you too?
  D#                        A#
I took what I wanted put my heart on the shelf
F                         G#
How can you love when you don't love yourself
       D#                         A#
It was me against the world I was sure that I'd win
    F                              G#
But the world fought back punished me for my sins
         D#                     A#
And they tried to warn me of my evil ways
      F                       G#
But I couldn't hear what they had to say

Bridge
~~~~~~
       A#             F
Well I grew up fast I grew up hard
G#                           A#
Something was wrong from the very start
                              F
I was fighting everybody I was fighting everything
        G#              A#
But the only one that I hurt was me
                              F
I got society's blood running down my face
G#                   A#
Somebody help me get out of this place
                        F
How could someone's bad luck last so long

Until I realized that I was wrong
