1. I’ve been around for you, been up and down for you,

         G                                 D

    but I just can’t get any relief.

               D                                       - A

    I’ve swallowed my pride for you,         lived and lied for you,

            G                                           D

    but you still make me feel like a thief

                                A                                              G                 D

    You’ve got me stealing your love away, ‘cause you’d never give it

       A                                         G              D

    peeling the years away and we can’t relive it.

    that deep down we were really in love.

    Oh, but I’m tired of holding on to a feeling I know is gone,

G                                              D

    I do believe that I’ve had enough.

                      A                                          G             D

    I’ve had enough of the falseness of a worn out relation,

         A                                     G       D

    enough of the jealousy and intoleration.

            G                   D               G                    D
