D   E    G   D

[Verse 1]
D         F#7
In twenty years you’re
      G         D
gonna find this funny
D
But in the next five
E
minutes,
       G           D
you’re bound to explode
D              F#7
I’ve done some selfish
things
   G        D
to make you angry
D              E
Things I’m not proud of,
    G             D
but things that I own
D Dsus4 D Dsus2

[Chorus]
A     E
And a thousand times
I’ll
G       D     D Dsus4 D Dsus2
say I’m sorry,
A
I’m not quite sure what
       G
your reaction
D    D Dsus4 D Dsus2
means
A
You laughed through
tears and
        G
told me not to
D    D Dsus4 D Dsus2
worry
A
It's just one of those
G7     G6  G5    G6
things

[Verse 2]
D         F#7
I don’t recall you
       G      D
saying not to do it
D         E
I don’t remember very
G       D
much at all
D           F#7
If I'd been warned not to
 G      D
obey my instincts
D          E
I’m pretty sure this
         G     D
wouldn’t be my fault
D Dsus4 D Dsus2

[Chorus]
A
And a thousand times I’ll
G
say I’m
D     D Dsus4 D Dsus2
sorry,
A
I’m not quite sure what
       G
your reaction
D     D Dsus4 D Dsus2
means
A
You laughed through

tears and told me
G      D      D Dsus4 D Dsus2
not to worry
A
It's just one of
      G7     G6  G5    G6
those things

[Bridge]
Bm             E
What about the good times?
Bm             E
How we used to laugh
G
And I'd get high six ways
     D
from Sunday
F#7
And you would give me a
Bm  Bm/A  G
pa- aaaa- ass
G              D
Why did nobody tell me
F#7
That type of love ain’t
        Bm  Bm/A  G
made to la--aaaa--st
G     A
No no no

[Verse 3]
D          F#7
Two weeks away I had to
G         D
come home early
D           E
Arm full of flowers and a
G       D
promise ring
D     F#7
Heard fleeing footsteps
as you
G            D
dressed in a hurry
D                E
You shrugged and said that
          G            D
it’s just one of those things
