It’s (F)fun ny when you (Bb)find your self
(C)look ing from the (F)out side.
I’m stand ing here, but (Bb)all I want is (C)to be o ver (F)there.
Why (Dm7)did I let my (Bbsus2)self be lieve
(C)mir a cles could (F)hap pen?
’Cause (F)now I have
(Bb)to pre tend that (C)I don’t real ly (F)care.
I (Bbsus2)thought you were my (C)fair y tale,
my (F)dream when I’m not sleep ing,
a (Bbsus2)wish up on a (C)star that’s com ing true.
But (Bbsus2)ev ’ry bod y (C)else could tell that (F)I con fused my feel ings (Dm)with the (Bb)truth,
when there was me and (C)you.
I (G)swore I knew the (C)mel o dy
(D)that I heard you (G)sing ing.
And when you smiled, you (C)made me feel like (D)I could sing a (G)long.

(D)now my heart is (G)emp ty.
I’m (G)on ly left with (C)used to be’s

Now, I (C)know you’re not a (D)fair y tale, and (G)dreams were meant for (Em)sleep ing,
and (C)wish es on a (D)star just don’t come (Em)true.
’Cause (C)now, e ven (D)I can tell that (G)I con fused my (Em)feel ings (Em)with the (C)truth,
be cause I liked the view
when there was me and (Bb)you.
I can’t be lieve that (F)I could be so blind.

be cause I liked the (Em)view,
ooh.
I thought you felt it (D)too,
when there was me and (G)you.
