*I Swear this is the Original Key of the song because i listened to the CD over and over
again. It starts off with Ab Major and then ends in Bb Major.


          
I will not mak

            
e the same mis

            
takes that you

 
 did
         
I will not let

 myself
            
Cause my heart

           
 so much miser

y
          
I will not bre

       
ak the way you

 did,
     
You fell so ha

rd
            
I've learned t

      
he hard way
            
To never let i

           
t get that far


CHORUS :
            
Because of you

 
             
I never stray 

             
too far from t

      
he sidewalk
           
Because of you
              
I learned to p

            
lay on the saf

             
e side so I do

         
n't get hurt
            
Because of you

  
              

              

              

   
              
I find it hard

            
 to trust not 

            
only me, but e

            
veryone around

                    
 me
            
Because of you

 
         
I am afraid


        
I lose my way
            
And it's not t

            
oo long before

  
 you point it 

out
       
I cannot cry
            
Because you kn

            
ow that's weak

              
ness in your e

  
yes
            
I'm forced to 

 
fake
            
A smile, a lau

            
gh everyday of

           
 my life
            
My heart can't

    
 possibly brea

k
            
When it wasn't

              
 even whole to

  
 start with


[CHORUS]


              
I watched you 


die
            
I heard you cr

              
y every night 

        
in your sleep
          
I was so young
              
You should hav

            
e known better

          
 than to lean 

on me
            
You never thou

              
ght of anyone 

 
else
              
You just saw y


our pain
            
And now I cry 

              
in the middle 

        
of the night
          
For the same d

amn thing


CHORUS-MODULATING [Ab Major to Bb Major]:
