I wasn't born to make you sad

Em C B (x2)

Verse 1:
I never hear my sweetheart calling

I wonder if the truth stands tall
                Em
(Cause?) I'm playing your game
     
Fighting for your name
             C     B                Em C
I'm sticking around cause I'm lonely
  B
..Cause I'm lonely

Chorus:
Em                           C     B
I wasn't born to make you happy
Em                           C     B
I wasn't born to make you sad
Em                               C     B
Although you see my sweet surrender
Em                                     C    B
You're still the bitch that makes me mad

Verse 2:
Em                                 C     B
I never hear your young heart bleeding
Em                       C            B
My ear is never close to unwanted taps
                          Em    
But I won't let your drip run dry
                      
I'll live with your lie
    C               B              Em   
I'm sticking around cause I'm lonely
C                 B
..Sticking around cause I'm lonely


Chorus again


Bridge:
C                         G
So when I come I hope you know
                 B7*      B7
That you'll have no place left to go
C                          G
And I wont find no room in here
                  B7
For you to chuck me out on my ear
