Eb 
You have a way with words 
                    Ab 
Your silence is a curse 
Ab 
You always seem to break me down, down, down 
Eb 
My swollen heart you curve 
Eb                      Ab 
Your comfort makes it worse 
Ab 
I don't want you around round, round, round 


     Eb 
Cause how is the man of my dreams not a man of his word? 
    Cm                     Ab 
And how is the man for me just a man that makes me hurt? 

Eb 
It's time to take my own 
 Ab 
Take my own advice, take my own advice 
Eb 
Need me to take my own 
Ab 
Take my own advice 

Eb 
I almost lost my mind 
Eb                 Ab 
I left myself behind 
Ab 
I almost crashed and fell right from the sky 
Eb 
I took a chance on this 
Eb               Ab 
I took too big a risk 
Ab 
And now I'm left with pain to get me high 

     Eb 
Cause how is the man of my dreams not a man of his word? 
    Cm                     Ab 
And how is the man for me just a man that makes me hurt? 
Eb 
It's time to take my own 
 Ab 
Take my own advice, take my own advice 
Eb 
Need me to take my own 
Ab 
Take my own advice 

Cm           Eb          Ab 
You had to break me, take me 
   Bb          Eb 
To make me better 
Eb                     Ab 
But I had to save me, baby 
 Ab 
Now or never 

     Eb 
Cause how is the man of my dreams not a man of his word? 
    Cm                     Ab 
And how is the man for me just a man that makes me hurt? 

Eb 
It's time to take my own 
 Ab 
Take my own advice, take my own advice 
Eb 
Need me to take my own 
Ab 
Take my own advice....
