[Verse 1]
Eb Bb
When I was young I was so full of fear
F Ab
I hid behind anger and held back the tears
Eb Bb
It was me against the world and I was sure that I'd win
F Ab
But the world fought back punished me for my sins
Eb Bb
I felt so alone so insecure
F Ab
I blamed me instead and made sure I was heard
Eb Eb
And they tried to warn me of my evil ways
F Ab
But I couldn't hear what they had to say
[Chorus 1]
Eb Bb F Ab
I was wrong self destruction got me again
Eb Bb F Ab
I was wrong I realise now that I was wrong
[Verse 2]
Eb Bb
And I think about my loves well I've had a few
F Ab
I'm sorry that I hurt them, did I hurt you too?
Eb Bb
I took what I wanted put my heart on the shelf
F Ab
How can you love when you don't love yourself
Eb Bb
It was me against the world I was sure that I'd win
F Ab
But the world fought back punished me for my sins
Eb Bb
And they tried to warn me of my evil ways
F Ab
But I couldn't hear what they had to say
[Chorus 2]
Eb Bb F Ab
I was wrong self destruction got me again
Eb Bb F Ab
I was wrong I realise now that I was wrong
Eb Bb F Ab
I was wrong
Eb Bb F Ab
I was wrong

Bb F
Well I grew up fast I grew up hard
Ab Bb
Something was wrong from the very start
F
I was fighting everybody I was fighting everything
Ab Bb
But the only one that I hurt was me
F
I got society's blood running down my face
Ab Bb
Somebody help me get out of this place
F
How could someone's bad luck last so long
Ab Bb
Until I realised that I was wrong
Solo: over verse progression.
