         Dm
Well I'm sorry and I apologize 
                      Am
for any pain I may have caused you 
             A
and I made you my enemy 
C                                  Am
but now I need you as my friend 
         A                           C
and I've been wrong for so long 
       Am                         A         
not to ask for your forgiveness
           C                                      Am
and if you don't accept, I'll understand 
    A                         C
but I need to make amends 
     A
but I need to make amends 
            A
It's hard for me to say this 
                   C                                          A
but I've been going through some changes 
          G                                  C
and I'm really not quite sure where to begin 
          A
I've been kissing devils 
                  Am
and fighting angels 
         A
putting the rest of you in danger
  C                                            A
and blaming you for the turmoil beneath my skin
      G                                           C
and my twisted versions of the truth 
A                                                 G
are a weak man's attempt to look better than you 
C                                  A
can't believe your pain never gave you a grin 
Am                                      Dm
and I've wanted to kill a thousand times 
Am                   Dm                       Am
but I think I just thought that I wouldn't survive 
C                           A
but I found happiness ain't something you win 
Bm                                  G
Well I'm sorry and I apologize 
    Em                                      Dm
for any pain I may have caused you 
         Em                        Dm
and I made you my enemy 
    G                                  C
but now I need you as my friend 
Am                              Em
and I've been wrong for so long 
      Dm                        G
not to ask for your forgiveness 
         C                                             Em
and if you don't accept, I'll understand 
 Am               G              Dm
but I need to make amends 
Am               G             Dm
but I need to make amends 
G                   Dm                   Em
Well I've lied to you so many times 
 C                     Am                    G
with a mad desire to control your mind 
Dm                                  Em
searching for things that no one finds 
           C                         Am                   G
and I've killed your time and stole you blind 
Am                 C                       A
I've taught you things you don't need to learn
 Bm                          G
so I can cut in line and take your turn 
Em                                   Dm
I've filled your head with snakes and worms 
       Em                                     Dm
on my search for a bridge to burn 
 G                      C          
I wanna live with no uncertainty 
      Am                                Em
but that man in the mirror's been hurtin' me 
          Dm                                  G                    C             
and I've come to you 'cause there's nowhere else to go 
Em                             Am 
Well I'm sorry and I apologize 
G          Dn                      Em 
for any pain I may have caused you 
C                    Am
and I made you my enemy 
G                        Dm            Fm
but now I need you as my friend 
Dm                                  Em
and I've been wrong for so long 
            C                 Am
not to ask for your forgiveness 
Bm                       G                       Em
and if you don't accept, I'll understand 
      Dm                         Em
but I need to make amends 
                  Dn
but I need to make amends 
     Em                           Fm
If you see me sad, don't pity it 
G                  C
I've been a god damn idiot 
        A                         G
My life, my fault, my actions make me break 
                   C
and I can't even see it, so be it 
         B
that's what I think 
         B                          E
when everybody's gonna blame the world 
                Em                                Am
I blame my mom and dad and put it in a song 
          Bm
I'm weak, so I act strong 
                              G
I'm short, so I talk long 
          Em
and layin' in the hospital 
                               Dm
I think, have I been wrong? 
       G
all along 

I'm 29, still playin' "look at me" 

what am I, three? 

self-esteem on E 

can't you see
 
I've been often neglegent 

almost never benevolent 

I think I'm intellegent 

but mostly irrelevant 

'cause I ain't changed one bit 

even though I quit 

who cares if I'm sober if 

I'm still gonna steal shit 

I had to be broken down 

another apocalypse 

to see what I had missed 

and just come and tell you this 

my pride, gotta suck it up 

my gut, gotta tuck it up
 
so here goes, dawg 

I love you 

I fucked it up 

Well I'm sorry and I apologize 

for any pain I may have caused you 

and I made you my enemy 

but now I need you as my friend 

and I've been wrong for so long 

not to ask for your forgiveness 

and if you don't accept, I'll understand 
Bm
but I need to make amends 
                   G
but I need to make amends 
   Em                                    Dm
Well I'm sorry and I apologize 
                      Em
for any pain I may have caused you 
      Dm                        G
and I made you my enemy 
   C                                Am
but now I need you as my friend 
                Em
and I've been wrong for so long 
                                       Dm
not to ask for your forgiveness 
  G                    C
and if you don't accept, I'll understand 
       Em                      Am
but I need to make amends 
    G        C             Am
but I need to make amends
