Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

 When I told you, I didn't need you

That's when, I needed you the most

 But you weren't there

 So I'll just cry myself to sleep

 Just shaking and in pain, cause I'm so weak

 And I tried to tell you,

 But you didn't listen

 So now with tears in my eyes, as I lay here in bed

Now I know, that the book is different than the cover I read

Chorus

Don't judge a book by the cover, otherwise you might go under

You don't know what you're getting into, oh-oh-oh

Don't judge a book by the cover, otherwise you might discover

 That everything is different than you expected

 So listen to what your heart says

 The inside was different than the outsides truth,

 It keeps changing, so what's the excuse

 It should stay the same

Depressed and broken, everything's gray

Speechless without anything to say

 How could you do this to me

 And now with tears in my eyes, as I lay here in bed

Now I know, that the book is different than the cover I read

Chorus

Don't judge a book by the cover, otherwise you might go under

You don't know what you're getting into, oh-oh-oh

Don't judge a book by the cover, otherwise you might discover

 That everything is different than you expected

 So listen to what your heart says

 Yeah, dig a little deeper, see what message they convey

 Yeah, find yourself a keeper, before you let them take you away

 Yeah there's so many different covers, so many books upon the shelf

 But the only thing that matters, is the story that it tells baby

 Now I wipe the tears from eyes, and find someone new instead

 There's no point in looking back on a cover I once read, baby

Chorus

Don't judge a book by the cover, otherwise you might go under

You don't know what you're getting into, oh-oh-oh

Don't judge a book by the cover, otherwise you might discover

 That everything is different than you expected

 So listen to what your heart says
