For a Pessimist, Im Pretty Optimistic

Intro: B F# Ebm C# B F# C# (x2)


Just talk yourself up And tear yourself down

You ve hit your one wall Now find a way around

Well what s the problem? You ve got a lot of nerve


So what d you think I would say?

No you can t run away, no you can t run away

So what did you think I would say?

No you can t run away, no you can t run away
You wouldn t

Chorus:

I never wanted to say this

You never wanted to stay

I put my faith in you, so much faith

And then you just threw it away

(Repeat Intro once only)
You threw it away


I m not so naive My sorry eyes can see

The way you fly shy Of almost everything

Well, if you give up You ll get what you deserve

Bridge: Bass lines
You were finished long before
We had even seen the start
Why don t you stand up, be a man about it?
F# (hold)
Fight with your bare hands about it now


I never wanted to say this

You never wanted to stay

I put my faith in you, so much faith

And then you just threw it away

I never wanted to say this

You never wanted to stay

I put my faith in you, so much faith

And then you just threw it away
