[Em]Innocent eyes look into [B7/D#]mine Baby, I see that you're [G]falling up
It’s gonna hurt when I [A/C#]let you down
[Em]It's not that I like to leave when it's [B7/D#]right
But over and over a[G]gain I’ve only seen love that [A/C#]ends
[Em]Before you get too [B7/D#]hurt may I do it [Em]first? [Cm6]
I tried to [G]warn you, I begged you to [Am7]leave
But you tried to [Em7]fix me, oh, don't be [Cm6]naive
You wanted some[G]body that I'll never [Am7]be
But that's what you [Em7]get when your heart's in the [Cm6]hands of a man like [Em]me
Your tears hit the floor, like many be[B7/D#]fore
From strangers to lo[G]vers to enemies I wish I could be your [A/C#]remedy
I [Em]hate to say, "I told you so" I'm [B7/D#]not the type to get too close
I [G]hope you learned your lesson But [A/C#]you are no exception
[Em]Before you get too [B7/D#]hurt
May I do it [G]worse? (You know I'll do it [Cm6]worse)
I tried to [G]warn you, I begged you to [Am7]leave
But you tried to [Em7]fix me, oh, don't be [Cm6]naive
You wanted some[G]body that I'll never [Am7]be
But that's what you [Em7]get when your heart's in the [Cm6]hands of a man like [G]me
[Am7]...[Em7]...In the [Cm6]hands of a man like [G]me
[Am7]...[Em7]...In the [Cm6]hands of a man like [G]me
