  Intro:   D


D
  I took in the most that I could
                           Bm
  I never imagined that I would
                          G
  Be feeling so misunderstood
                      D
  I'm just following lines
 
  You race in my mind like a car
                                     Bm
  You've beaten my heart so damn farther
                                G
  And now I've been pacing the wall

                         Em
  Cause you're under my hood
          A
  Never thought I could

  Love you no never
                        Em
  Never thought that I would
        G        A
  Ever try to be anything better

 
      G                       D
  My heart's beating better alone
                Em
  And if it is broke
   Bm           A
  Why let you know
        G                          D
  This heart's not your skipping stone
      Em
  If I'm sinking water
       Bm        A
  Then why even bother
        G                A
  Just leave it alone, Mmmm
                                   D
  This heart's not your skipping stone

 

  So maybe I should settle down
                           Bm
  And find a new man  let him 
                    G
  Throw my world around
                     D
  All his blueberry lies

  I know there isn't a rule
                         Bm
  Was left in the dust never
                    G
  Was taught in school

                            Em
  Mmmm now  I'm a lovesick fool
         A
  Never knew that you

  Could just hold me hostage
                 Em
  I'm losing my cool
               G
  Through the pain somehow
         A
  Don't want you to stop it

 
    G                       D
  My heart's beating better alone
                Em
  And if it is broke
   Bm           A
  Why let you know
        G                          D
  This heart's not your skipping stone
      Em
  If I'm sinking water
       Bm        A
  Then why even bother
        G                A
  Just leave it alone, Mmmm
                                   Bm
  This heart's not your skipping stone

 
           G
  All the time
                  D
  I never let you in
         A
  Was a lie
                       Bm
  I wasn't letting you win
               G
  And all the days
              D
  You let me cry
         A
  Was a lie
 

    G                       D
  My heart's beating better alone
                Em
  And if it is broke
   Bm           A
  Why let you know
        G                          D
  This heart's not your skipping stone
      Em
  If I'm sinking water
       Bm        A
  Then why even bother
        G                D
  Just leave it alone 
                Em
  And if it is broke
   Bm           A
  Why let you know
        G                          D
  This heart's not your skipping stone
      Em
  If I'm sinking water
       Bm        A
  Then why even bother
        G             A
  Just leave me alone
                                   D
  This heart's not your skipping stone

  End on D
