Lyrics
Am Em x 2
Am
You
Am Em
You taught me how to raise the stakes
Em F
How to punch above my weight
G Am
You're not here to see me fail
Am
And you
Am Em
you taught me how to shake the blame
Em F
You told me how I would stay the same
G Am
to keep a straight face with the weakest hand
Dm F G Am
But you never taught me how to fall
G Dm
How to keep on running when I loose control
Dm F G F C Dm
You never taught me how to fall
Am Em
You told me about the golden rule
Em F
The girlfriend and the swimming pool
F G
How they look at what you got
Am
not at what you do
Am
And you
Em
you taught me how not to overspend
F
How to trust them and you can't be friends
G
always me and you
Am
never us and them
Dm F G Am
But you never taught me how to fall
Am G Dm
How to keep my cool at the curtain call
Dm F G Am
You never taught me how to fall
Am G
I was made for exceptions
F Dm
not come at all
Dm Am
mmmm
F Dm Am
fall
[Solo]
Am Em x2
Dm F G Am
But you never taught me how to fall
G
And I chose to love you in spite of all your flaws
Dm F G Am
You never taught me how to fall
G
How to keep on running when I lost it all
Dm F G F C Dm
You never taught me how to fa-all
[Outro]
Am Am F Dm
