I Was Scared

Intro: B F# G#m E x4


B         F#
Listen to me
     G#m              E
I've got to clear the air
        B                   F#              G#m            E
There's something I've held way down deep inside all these years
    B             F#
You always were a friend
    G#m            E
You always trusted me
    B            F#             G#m          E
But now I must admit that I was not trustworthy


  B       F#      G#m      E
I let you down, I sold you out
  B       F#         G#m    E      B
I turned away as you fell onto the ground


B F#  G#m  E
  I... was scared
B   F#   G#m       E
And I...  was terrified
B F#   G#m  E        B    F#     G#m  E
  I...  was lost and so I shied away


B F# G#m E x2

B                F#               G#m           E
And I don't know what I can do to make it up to you
  B                   F#
I can't turn back the clock
  G#m               E
I can't rewrite the book
                B                F#
But if I could, the end would be happy
G#m           E
 You would be safe
      B                 F#                 G#m             E
And I would be proud to look at you when I look you in the face


  B       F#      G#m      E
I let you down, I sold you out
  B       F#         G#m    E      B
I turned away as you fell onto the ground


B F#  G#m  E
  I... was scared
B   F#   G#m       E
And I...  was terrified
B F#   G#m  E        B    F#     G#m  E
  I...  was lost and so I shied away


D#       G#m
Though I love you
E         F#
I was so afraid
D#       G#m          E           F#
 I could not think of anything to say


D#       G#m
Though I loved you (Though I loved you)
C#m      F#
Though I trusted you
B        E
Though I needed you (Though I needed you)
B         D#m
I was so afraid
E         F#
I was so afraid (I was so afraid)


B F# G#m E x2

B     F#                G#m        E
And I promise that I'll never ever do
    B                F#                 G#m            E
The thing that I did on that day when I acted like the fool
  B                F#
I might get my ass beat
          G#m                  E
My throat slit, and my fingers hacked
         B            F#              G#m                E
But I'll never miss another chance to watch my brother's back (And I got yours)


  B       F#      G#m      E
I let you down, I sold you out
  B       F#         G#m    E      B
I turned away as you fell onto the ground

  I... was scared
B   F#   G#m       E
And I...  was terrified
B F#   G#m  E        B    F#     G#m  E
  I...  was lost and so I shied away


B F#  G#m  E
  I... was scared
B   F#   G#m       E
And I...  was terrified
B F#   G#m  E        B    F#     G#m  E
  I...  was lost and so I shied away
