[Intro]
G C G D C
[Verse 1]
G D C
I ain't the kind to run away
G D C
I ain't the kind to make you stay
G D
Cause I'm just gonna break your heart
C
And you'll break mine I know this part
G D C
So I think it's time to run away
[Chorus]
G D
Why do I pick myself up
C
Just to get thrown down
G D C
I keep kicking my own ass just to come back another round
G D C
And it feels like I can't help myself with setting up to fail
G D C
If you need me I'll be wasting my time
G D C
Chasing my tail
G D C
Chasing my tail
[Verse 2]
G D C
So go ahead and end things first
G D C G
Cause I tend to wait until it hurts
D C
And the version of me that you get will always just be second best
G D C
And I hope that you don't wait to see my worst
[Chorus]
G D
Why do I pick myself up
C
Just to get thrown down
G D C
I keep kicking my own ass just to come back another round

And it feels like I can't help myself with setting up to fail
G D C
If you need me I'll be wasting my time
G D C
Chasing my tail
G D C
Chasing my tail

So honey don't feel sorry for me

Cause I can do that all by myself

I'll keep running around in circles

Till you leave me standing still, oh
[Chorus]

Why do I pick myself up

Just to get thrown down
