[Intro] (x2)
A, Cadd9, Em7, A, G
[Verse 1]
A I'd be kidding myCadd9self,
To think that Em7I'd be any Ause to you at all,
GTell me soEm7mething I don't A7know,
A Just another Cadd9notch in your belt,
Is Em7all that I would Aend up being, so,
GTell me soEm7mething I don't A7know.
[Pre-Chorus]
D Any lesson you've learned,Em7 Cadd9
Is gone in the moment, A D
You know you probably get burned,
B7 But here you go like you own it.
[Chorus]
And you Ggive it all that you're Cadd9worth,
Make it A7loud in hopes that you're Dheard,
With your Gdeepest cuts just Cadd9strewn and spilling A7out.
[Verse 2]
With a little finesse,
I might have wound up somewhere better than the floor,
Tell me something I don't know,
I'm a bit of a mess,
But tucked-in, brushed-off, I look somewhat like before,
Tell me something I don't know.
[Pre-Chorus]
Any lesson you've learned,
Is gone again with the moment,
You call her name as she turns,
You know you've already blown it.
[Chorus]
Still you give it all that you're worth,
Say it loud in hopes that you're heard,
With your deepest cuts just strewn and spilling out.
[Bridge]
And you Gknow that you'll never Cadd9win,
So you Atake your lumps on the Cadd9chin,
And Gyou're still smiling Cadd9as you're blacking Aout,
Woo-hoo woah-oh.
[Instrumental] (x4)
G, Cadd9, Em7, Cadd9
[Chorus]
And you give it all that you're worth,
Make it loud in hopes that you're heard,
With your deepest cuts just strewn and spilling out.
[Outro]
Cause you know that you'll never win,
So you drop your hands and you grin,
And you're still smiling as you're blacking out.
Woo-hoo woah-oh (x8)
