Lyrics

[Intro]

| -  | - | - | - |

[Verse 1]
E5            F#5         E5           F#5
She was still sleepin the problem will stay
B5
  One more day

[Verse 2]
E5             F#5       E5             F#5
Said she's not sorry the wind blows her way
E5        F#5            E5               F#5
Accidents happen there's one planned today
Ah you see

[Chorus]
B5       C#5           F#5
  I wish it wasn't true
               E5       B5        C#5
But that's the way it is  It's not
          F#5
your fault
           E5       B5        C#5
That's the way it is  I'm sick
      F#5
of you
               E5     E5
And that's the way it is
         F#5
And will always be

[Bridge]

[Verse 3]
E5           F#5       E5    F#5
Wednesday is over it's over again
E5          F#5         E5           F#5
Said my goodbyes to the life we won't   spend
Togetheer

[Chorus]
B5       C#5           F#5
  I wish it wasn't true
               E5       B5        C#5
But that's the way it is  It's not
          F#5
your fault
           E5       B5        C#5
That's the way it is  I'm sick
      F#5
of you
               E5      B5 C#5
And that's the way iit is
F#5 E5       B5        C#5     F#5 E5
      Ah but that's not   your problem
B5        C#5  F#5 E5
That's not   a problem
B5        C#5   F#5 E5
That's not   my problem
B5        C#5    F#5   E5
That's not   your   problem
