VERSE:
C
Everybody's fucked-up, everybody's got their quirks,
            G
but in this game of life I'm playing, I'm so sick of being hurt.
            F
And I don't wanna hear about how you don't wanna hear from me.
          G
Just what makes you so damn sure I wanna talk to you anyway?

C
Out of here is the direction I'm heading.
G
I don't wanna hear what people are saying.
F
Don't think this is just another song about heartache,
        G
cuz I'm feeling fucking perfect, and I've never been more okay.

[Chorus]
C                    F                           A
With you gone away - sure sometimes I miss those days
                                                   G                    D            E       C
laying lazy in my bedroom while we listened to our favorite CDs, and we talked about you and me.
                           F                               A
But I'll toss the memories away, gladly with a smile on my face.
                                             G         D      E         C
You can't have lost love when you can't love anyone at all in the first place.

[Verse 3]
C
You tore me up, but that was so long ago.
G
So many questions that I wanted to know.
F
To say I'm bitter would just kind of be a lie,
              G
but there's a little bit of truth when I say I hope you die.

C
Out of here is the direction I'm heading.
G
I don't wanna hear what people are saying.
F
I don't wanna hear how you don't wanna hear from me.
          G
Just what makes you so damn sure I wanna talk to you anyway?

[Outro]
C                             G
I don't wanna hear about it.  I don't wanna hear about it.
A                             F                        G
I don't wanna hear about it.  I don't wanna hear about it.
C                             G
I don't wanna hear about it.  I don't wanna hear about it.
A                             F                        G
I don't wanna hear about it.  I don't wanna hear about it.

C                  G
I don't wanna hear what you say, my dear.
    A                              F       G
The words you're saying are making my ears bleeding
C                  G
I don't wanna hear what you say, my dear.
    A                              F       G
The words you're saying are making my ears bleeding
