Bigger Person

Intro G Bm [Verse 1] Em D/F# G When you'd yell, I would stay silent Bm You never noticed I was quiet Em D/F# I was taught that speaking up was talking back G Always first to say I'm sorry Bm 'Cause I wanted you to like me Em D/F# And I thought that's what it took to make it last C It's a loselose [Pre-Chorus] D That I don't choose C D#dim7 But you don't always choose the ones you love Chorus Em C G I shouldn't have to be the bigger person Em C G How come I have to break to keep us workin'? Em C It's always up to me G B7 Even though it shouldn't be C Cm I will take the blame the way you want me to 'Cause that's what I do for you [Post-Chorus] G Bm Em D/F# G I was half of this dynamic [Verse 2] Bm I was stable, you were manic Em D/F# Without you or with you comes with a cost G I got used to the excuses Bm And emotional abuses Em D/F# We kept moving the lines we'd never cross C It's a loselose [Pre-Chorus] D That I don't choose C D#dim7 But you don't always choose the ones you love Chorus Em C G I shouldn't have to be the bigger person Em C G How come I have to break to keep us workin'? Em C It's always up to me G B7 Even though it shouldn't be C Adim/C I will take the blame the way you want me to Am 'Cause that's what I do for you Bridge D I always think it's over G But it never really is Em 'Cause I can't get the closure Am When you're like this D Can we switch? Interlude Em C G Maybe this time, you'll be the bigger person Em C G 'Cause I'm gettin' tired of bearin' all your burden Em C It should be up to you G D/F# But you won't admit the truth, ohhohh Chorus Em C G I shouldn't have to be the bigger person Em C G How come I have to break to keep us workin'? Em C It's always up to me G B7 Even though it shouldn't be C Cm I'll take the blame the way you want me to G 'Cause that's what I do for you
