[Chord] Because Of You (Kelly Clarkson)

[G]I will not [D]make
the same [Em]mistakes that you [D]did
[G]I will not [D]let myself
[Em]Cause my heart so much [D]misery
[G]I will not [D]break the [Em]way you did,
You fell [C]so hard
[G]I've learned the hard [D]way
To never [C]let it get that [D]far
Because of [G]you
I never [Em]stray too far from the [D]sidewalk
Because of [G]you
I learned to play on the
safe side [Em]so I don't get [D]hurt
Because of [G]you
I find it hard to [C]trust not
only [D]me, but everyone around [Em]me
Because of [G]you
I am [D]afraid
[G]I lose my [D]way
And it's not [Em]too long
before [D]you point it [G]out
I cannot [D]cry
[Em]Because you know that's
weakness [D]in your [G]eyes
I'm forced to [D]fake
A [Em]smile, a laugh [D]everyday of my [G]life
My heart can't possibly [D]break
When it wasn't [C]even whole to start [D]with
Because of [G]you
I never [Em]stray too far from the [D]sidewalk
Because of [G]you
I learned to play on the
safe side [Em]so I don't get [D]hurt
Because of [G]you
I find it hard to [C]trust not
only [D]me, but everyone around [Em]me
Because of [G]you
I am [D]afraid
I watched you [G]die
I heard you [D]cry every night in your [A]sleep
I was so [G]young
You should have known [Em]
better than to lean on [A]me
You never [G]thought of anyone [D]else
You just saw [A]your pain
And now I [G]cry in the middle of the [C]night
For the [Bb]same [B]damn [C#]thing
Because of [G]you
I never stray [Em]too far from the [D]sidewalk
Because of [G]you
I learned to play on the
safe [C]side so I don't get [D]hurt
Because of [G]you
I try my hardest just [Em]to forget [D]everything
Because of [G]you
I don't know [Em]how to let anyone else [D]in
Because of [G]you
I'm ashamed of my life [Em]because it's [D]empty
Because of [G] [Em]you
I am [D]afraid
Because of [G]you
Ooh, [Em]oohhh, [D]ohhh
Because of [G]you
Ooh, [Em]oohhh, [D]ohhh
[G]ooh
