Om het nummer te maken worden zowel de C#m als de A telkens veranderd in een sus akkoord.
D.w.z. dat de middelvinger van je linkerhand even los komt

you imagine I don't care, you see walls that just aren't there
                F#m                   A (let ring)

I'm not so tough, I 'll call your bluff
       E                   B

I know that you've been hurt before, well so have I, what can you do
 A
that doesn't mean you close the door, so stop blamin' me, I don't blame you

I'm not some ghost from your past the one who tore you heart in half

Put your capo on fret 4
