[C] You say [Am] I only hear what I want to [Dm] [Em] [F]
[C] And you say [Am] I talk so all the time-so [Dm] [Em] [F]

[Dm] And I thought what I [C] felt was simple
[Dm] And I thought that I [C] don't belong
[Dm] And now that I [C] am leaving
[Dm] Now I know that I [C] did something wrong cause I [F] missed you
[Fm] Yeah, I missed you [F] [C] [F] [C]

[C] And you say [Am] I only hear what I want to
[Dm] I don't listen hard
[Em] I don't pay attention to the [F] distance that you're running or to
Anyone, anywhere
[Dm] I don't understand [Em] if you really care
[F] I'm only hearing negative, no no no-bad

So I [Dm] turned the radio [C] on I turned the radio up [Dm]
And this woman was [C] singing my song
[Dm] The lover's in love  and the [C] other's run away
The [Dm] lover is crying cause the [C] other won't stay
And [Dm] some of us hover [C] when we weep for the [Dm] other who
was dying
Since the [C] day they were born well
[Dm] Well this is not that
[C] I think that I'm throwing but I'm [Dm] thrown [C]

And I [Dm] thought I'd live forever but now I'm not so sure
You try to [F] tell me that I'm clever but that won't take me anyhow [Dm]
Or anywhere [C] with you [Dm] [C]

And [Dm] you said that I [C] was naive
And [Dm] I thought that I [C] was strong
[Dm] I thought "hey I can [C] leave, I can leave"
[Dm] But now I know that [C] I was wrong cause I [F] missed you
[Fm] Yeah I [F] missed you [C] [F] [C]

You said "you [Dm] caught me cause you want me 
And one day I'll let you go"
You try to [F] give away a keeper or keep me cause you're know
you're just to [Dm] scared to [Em] loose [F]

And you say [C], [Am] "stay" [Dm] [Em] [F]
[C]You say [Am] I only hear what I want to [Dm] [Em] [F]
