9. Because We Had To [Verse 1]
GWell you were Bmwrong about the Cway You Dsaid my memory would Gchange Day after dBmay, you clCaimed I’dD find it inside of me to Ggrow Away from the Bpain And the shame and the Amguilt AndC the questions DWondering what did GI do wrong To yoBmu, to decCide it was time to go D
[Chorus]
BecaGuse we Chad to D Because GI tried the best that EmI could ToD have and to Chold you D In the wGay I Dknew that I Emshould And Dwe’d still be Cbreathing darling D If I Gdid the Dlittle you Emasked of Dme But CI couldn’t,D so now we’re nothing at alGl G
[Verse 2]

[Verse 3]
And when we were Cyounger D And our Ghearts oF#mutpaced our Emwits D It was Cbetter D and GI preferred to Dlive in the igEmnoranceD In the bubbCle D that you Gbuilt with a Emfake façaEde In the Dguise of anoCther Well you sold lDies and I bought them Gall
