[Verse 1]

Am
Started out, started out so simple
        G
We were runnin' 'round, runnin' 

'round like children
        F
How did we allow, we allow this story
   C       E
To fall so south
 
Am
What were we, what were we both thinking
        G
We were so naive, so naive believin'
        F
We were still happy, still happy
              C        E N.C.
How could I ignore my doubts
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 
I keep on telling myself
Am
We had something good 
                     F
Did we stay together longer 

than we should 
                        G
Were we just playing pretend 

because we could
                   D
Was it really that good
 
 
[Chorus]
 
I keep on telling myself
Am
It's not what it was
                      F
Did we just want to believe that 

this was love?
                        G
Was it really worth the trouble that 

it caused?
                    D
Look where we ended up
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
                    Am
I keep on telling myself
                    F
I keep on telling myself
                    G
I keep on telling myself
                    D
I keep on telling myself, ooh
 
 
[Verse 2]

Am
Don't pretend, don't pretend 
                       G
You're all of a sudden innocent, 

innocent
                     F
My darlin' how could you forget 
                                 C     
You forget the first half of the story now 
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

N.C.
  I keep on telling myself
Am
We had something good 
                     F
Did we stay together longer 

than we should 
                        G
Were we just playing pretend 

because we could
                   D
Was it really that good
 
I keep on telling myself
 
 
[Bridge]

    F                    
And now that you’re gone 
  C               E
I see it all clearly 
    F                  
And don't get me wrong 
  C                 E
I wouldn't change a thing
 
I keep on telling my
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

N.C.
  I keep on telling myself
Am
We had something good 
                     F
Did we stay together longer 

than we should 
                        G
Were we just playing pretend 

because we could
                   D
Was it really that good
 
 
[Chorus]
 
I keep on telling myself
Am
It's not what it was
                      F
Did we just want to believe 

that this was love?
                        G
Was it really worth the trouble 

that it caused?
                    D
Look where we ended up
 
 
[Outro]
                    Am
I keep on telling myself
                    F
I keep on telling myself
                    G
I keep on telling myself
                    D
I keep on telling myself, ooh
