Intro: D  A  Em  G 

Verse 1: 
D                   A                     Em 
Loving things like you has wrecked my life 
         G 
Made me cry 
D                   A                  Em 
Loving things like you has made me lose 
     G 
My mind 
D                   A                     
And I can't figure out why I've been  
Em 
Hanging on 
D                          A            Em                 
G                 
To all these things I've tried to leave behind me for so long 

Pre-Chorus: 
         D/F#                    
And I think it's time to find  
      Bm 
A better way to live my life 
         D/F#                               Em 
Than loving all those things that keep me wrapped 
     G 
So tight 

Chorus:  
         D            A            Em         G 
Cos everyone wants everyone else's everything 
D              A                Em                G 
Sometimes the more we have the less we really gain 
         D         A             Em             G   
And I'm tired of loving all that money has to buy 
     D     
Get out of my heart 
A 
Out of my mind 
     Em             G 
I'm leaving you behind 
 
D   A   Em D/F#  G 
 
 
Verse 2: (Same as verse 1) 
 
Loving things like you has left me bruised 
Black and blue 
Loving things like you has made me  
So confused 
And I can't figure out what I've been  
Waiting on 
God I can't be living life for things I know are wrong 

Pre-Chorus: (Same as 1st pre-Chorus) 
 
Now I think it's time to write  
A better chapter in my life 
Leaving all those things that keep me wrapped so tight 
(Same as 1 and 2) 
 
Cos Everyone wants everyone else's everything 
Sometimes the more we have the less we really gain 
I'm tired of loving all that money has to buy 
Get out of my heart  
Out of my mind 
I'm leaving you behind   
Interlude: 
 
A                        G                     D 
Why are we obsessed with possessions here on earth? 
A                         G                  D 
Go and take a look at the flowers and the birds 
A                            G                 D 
God is always taking care of nature's every need 
D                    A                Em              G                
And how much more important in the father's eye's are we? 
NC|-----------------------------------------------------  G

He sees everything 

Instrumental: (D) A Em G 

Chorus: (Same as 1, 2, and 3) 
 
Everyone wants everyone else's everything 
Sometimes the more we have the less we really gain 
I'm tired of loving all that money has to buy

Out of my mind 
I'm leaving you behind  
 
Get out of my heart 
Out of my mind 
I'm leaving you behind
