You walked into [Bm]my house last night
[D]I couldn't help but notice
[A]A light that was long gone still [E]burning strong
[Bm]You were sitting, your [D]fingers like fuses
[A]Your eyes were cinnamo[E]n
[Bm]You said you st[D]ood for every known abuse
That was e[A]ver threatened to [E]anyone but you
[Bm]And why should you know [D]better by now
When you're [A]old enough not t[E]o?
[Bm]While every [D]line speaks the language of l[A]ove
It never held the meaning [E]I was thinking of
[Bm]And I can't [D]decide over right or [A]wrong
I guess sometimes you need the p[E]lace where you belong
[Bm]Some may sing the wrong words to the [D]wrong melody
[A]It's little things like this that [E]matter to me
[Bm]Others feel that you should stand
[D]For every known abuse to hand
[A]And all the things that they could never [E]see
[Bm]You said you [D]stood for every known abuse
That was [A]ever promised to [E]anyone like you
[Bm]Don't you wish you knew [D]better by now
[A]When you're old enough not [E]to?
[Bm]When every l[D]ine speaks the language of lo[A]ve
And never held the meaning [E]I was thinking of
[Bm]And I can't [D]decide over right or [A]wrong
You left the feeling that I [E]just do not belong
[Bm]One drink too many and a joke gone too far
I see a face drive like a stolen car
Gets harder to hide when you're hitching a ride
Harder to hide what you really saw
[Bm]Oh yeah, you [D]stand for every known abuse
That [A]I've ever seen my way [E]through
[Bm]Don't you wish I knew [D]better by now?
[A]Well I think I'm starting [E]to
[Bm]When every l[D]ine speaks the language of l[A]ove
And never held the meaning [E]I was thinking of
[Bm]And I've lost the [D]line between right or [A]wrong
I just want to find the [E]place where I belong
[Bm]Why should you know [D]better by now
When you're [A]old enough not [E]to?
[Bm]I wish I knew [D]better by now
[A]When I'm old enough not [E]to
[D]I couldn't help but notice
