[Intro]
 G   Bm   Em  Em   D/F# 

[Verse 1]
            G
When you\'d yell I would
 stay silent
           Bm
You never noticed I was quiet
       Em                 
I was taught that speaking 
                      D/F#
up was talking back
        G
Always first to say, \"I\'m sorry\"
          Bm
\'Cause I wanted you to like me
        Em               
And I thought that\'s what 
                          D/F#
it took to make it last

[Pre-Chorus]
        C
It\'s a lose-lose
        D
That I don\'t choose
     C              
But you don\'t always 
                      Cm
choose the ones you love

[Chorus]
Em            C       G
 I shouldn\'t have to be
 the bigger person
Em           C           
 How come I have to break
     G
 to keep us working?
     Em            C     
It\'s always up to me even
   G                  B7
 though it shouldn\'t be
      C                
I\'ll take the blame the 
                  Cm
way you want me to
\'Cause that\'s what
 I\'d do for you
 G     Bm    Em     D/F#

[Verse 2]
       G
I was half of this dynamic
        Bm
I was stable, you were manic
    Em                  
Without you or with you,
                    D/F#
 comes with a cost
      G
I got used to the excuses
      Bm
And emotional abuses
    Em                  
We kept moving the lines 
                   D/F#
we\'d never cross

[Pre-Chorus]
        C
It\'s a lose-lose
        D
That I don\'t choose
     C              
But you don\'t always
                      Cm
 choose the ones you love

[Chorus]
Em            C       G
 I shouldn\'t have to be 
the bigger person
Em           C            
 How come I have to break 
    G
to keep us working?
     Em            C     
It\'s always up to me even 
   G                  B7
though it shouldn\'t be
      C            
I\'ll take the blame
                      Cm
 the way you want me to
\'Cause that\'s what 
               Am
I\'d do for you

[Post-Chorus]
                    D    
I always think it\'s over
                    G
 but it never really is
                         Em  
\'Cause I can\'t get the closure 
    E                Am
when you\'re like this
         D
Can we switch

[Bridge]
Em           C           G
 Maybe this time you\'ll be
 the bigger person
Em                   C      
 \'Cause I\'m getting tired of
         G
 bearing all your burden
     Em             C  
It should be up to you,
          G                B7
 but you won\'t admit the truth,
 ooh-ooh

[Chorus]
Em            C       G
 I shouldn\'t have to be
 the bigger person
Em           C           
 How come I have to break 
     G
to keep us working?
     Em            C     
It\'s always up to me even 
   G                  B7
though it shouldn\'t be
      C                
I\'ll take the blame the
                  Cm
 way you want me to
\'Cause that\'s what 
I\'d do for you
