Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

 Intro / / / / /// / /

 1. Story of my life

Searching for the right

But it keeps avoiding me

Sorrow in my soul

/ /

'Cause it seems that one

 Really loves my company

 He's more than a man

 And this is more than love

 The reason that the sky is blue

 But clouds are rollin' in

/ /

Because I'm gone again

 And to him I just can't be true

Prechorus

 And I know that he knows I'm unfaithful

 And it kills him inside

 To know that I am happy

 With some other guy

/

I can see him dyin'

Chorus

I don't wanna do this anymore

I don't wanna be the reason why

 Everytime I walk out the door

I see him die a little more inside

 I don't wanna hurt him anymore

I don't wanna take away his life

 I don't wanna be...

murderer

 2. I feel it in the air

 As I'm doin' my hair

 Preparing for another date

 A kiss upon my cheek

/ /

As he reluctantly

 Accepts i'm gonna be out late

 I say I won't belong

 Just hangin' with the girls

 A lie I didn't have to tell

 Because we both know

/ /

Where I'm about to go

And we know it very well

Prechorus

 'Cause I know that he knows I'm unfaithful

 And it kills him inside

 To know that I am happy

 With some other guy

/

I can see him dyin'

Chorus

I don't wanna do this anymore

I don't wanna be the reason why

 Everytime I walk out the door

I see him die a little more inside

 I don't wanna hurt him anymore

I don't wanna take away his life

 I don't wanna be...

murderer

 Our love

 His trust

 I might as well take a gun and put it to his head

 Get it over with

 I don't wanna do this

Anymore, whoah.., anymore

Chorus

I don't wanna do this anymore

I don't wanna be the reason why

 Everytime I walk out the door

I see him die a little more inside

 I don't wanna hurt him anymore

I don't wanna take away his life

 I don't wanna be...
