I Hate To Say I Told You So

Jason DeVore


Tom: D

INTRO:
D  Em  G  D
D  Em  G  D


VERSE:
 D
Pictures and prison cells

Painted on the walls
     Em
This empty room, I toss and turn

With wonders of what's gone to soon.
     G
And what's the big deal anyway?

I can't say that I care.
        D
So we photograph a landscape

Of what's never really there


VERSE:
    D
So many thoughts of what is real,

Display an awful curse
  Em
Another pen gone dry

Another line for one last shitty verse
    G
So tell me what's been on your mind

I'll filter out the rest
    D
And on and on, and on we go

Let's chase our dreams at last


CHORUS:
   Em
I hate to say I told you so,
   A                      D   D
I hate to say, I said, I said
    Em
So many times I told you so,
        A                         D   D
Please tell me what you think is left
    Em   A   G   D
Hey


VERSE:
    D
And so I spend my days in prison cells

Locked up behind disguises
      Em
Just play it safe, no-one gets hurt

Just keep it bent inside
       G
Yeah, Save for the experience,

For the others as they snidely squirm,
     D
And one day you'll seek your revenge,

With all that you have learned.


VERSE:
 D
Quickly, now, theres no time left,

Just jagged little girl
          Em
And the wheels fall off, we'll take it faster

Faster than we've ever turned
   G
I hear my heart-beat in my head,

Let's take this fucker down.
   D
I told you that its now or never,

And never come around.


CHORUS:
       Em
And I hate to say I told you so,
   A                      D   D
I hate to say, I said, I said
    Em
So many times I told you so,
        A                         D   D
Please tell me what you think is left

         C
Hey hey hey
                 G             D
Oh, wake me up, wake me once again.
     C           G               D
Oh, wake me up, this is not the end
         C           G             D
Woh, oh wake me up, wake me once again.
                          C
(I hate to say I told you so)
     C           G               D
Oh, wake me up, this is not the end?
