[Intro]

C    G   
Am   Em
 
 
[Verse]

 C
How many times
                        G
Will I take this rollercoaster ride
                       
Make myself sick before 
   Am
I realize 
                Em
I can just step off?
 
     C
And how many nights
                           G
Will I keep driving on an empty tank
                          Am
Every mile I go a little more insane
                    Em
When I can make it stop?
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

        C             
When I love you rolls 
       G            D
right off your tongue
      C                  G      D
I forget your mouth's a loaded gun
 
 
[Chorus]

                              
Yeah, baby, you're the reason 
     C
I'm crazy
                             
And lately you're the reason 
G
I cry
                           
And you're the only reason 
   Am
I hate me
                               Em
And love you at the same damn time
 
                           C
Oh, how do you keep me so hopeless
                         
And somehow believe that 
        G
you'll change?
                              
'Cause you're the only reason 
   Am   Em    D
I ever wanna leave
 
                             C
And, baby, you're the reason I stay
 
 
[Verse]

             C
When you're good, it's so fun
                       
And holding you is like 
   G
a last of the sun
                              
But then you drop me down when 
   Am
I ain't got a parachute 
                            
Falling from the cloud that 
Em
you just sent me to
 
 
[Chorus]

                           
And baby, that's the reason 
     C
I'm crazy
                             
And lately you're the reason 
G
I cry
                          
And you're the only reason 
  Am
I hate me
                               Em
And love you at the same damn time
 
                           C
Oh, how do you keep me so hopeless
                                 G
And somehow believe that

 you'll change?
                              
'Cause you're the only reason 
   Am   Em    D
I ever wanna leave
 
                             
And, baby, you're the reason 
C               G
I stay-ayyyy-ay-ay
 
             Am      Em
Oh, I wanna walk away
             D
But I can't walk away
 
 
[Break]

                              
And baby, that's the reason 
     C         G
I'm crazy, mm mmm
                       
Baby that's the  reason 
   Am
I hate me
                             D
For loving you all the damn time
 
 
[Chorus]

                           C
Oh, how do you keep me so hopeless
                        
And somehow believe that 
        G
you'll change?
                              
Cause you're the only reason 
   Am  Em    D
I ever wanna leave
 
                             
And, baby, you're the reason 
C          G
I stay, mm mmm
                       Am     EM
You're the only reason I stay
