Tuning: E A D G B E Key: A Capo: 2nd fret
[Intro]
G


[Verse 1]
Em                        G
I'm afraid I love someone
C                               D
Who's in love with someone else
Em                            G
For years I've kept it to myself
C                               D
Pretending we are picture-perfect
Em                            G
But I barely got my shit together
C                               D
Cracking under little pressure
Em                        G
I'm afraid I'm not the one
C                               D   C
The one you want is someone else


[Chorus]
G
They said
                                           D
Hope is a dangerous, dangerous little thing
Am                         G
To keep finding out the hard way
D                            C
What tomorrow never brings
G
They said
                                           D

To keep finding out the hard way
D                            G
What tomorrow never brings
G
Never brings


[Verse 2]
Em                        G
I passed a restaurant burned to the ground
C                               D
And a dollar store with a burned out "A"
Em                        G
I laughed thinking that I relate
C                               D
I'm the junk you buy then throw away
Em                        G
Hide the bloodshot, close my eyes
C                               D
So the cover won't be compromised
Em                        G
I'm afraid I'm not the one
C                               D
The one you want is someone else

To keep finding out the hard way
D                            C
What tomorrow never brings

What tomorrow never brings

[Bridge]
C           G      C         G
Sometimes I wanna blow up my life
C      G            D          Em
And become someone else      Yeah
