[Verse 1]
                     G
Thanks a lot, Shakespeare
               Bm
Where's my Juliet?
           Em
Books have set my standards high
            C             D
I guess my type is non-existent
          G        A   Bm
My dumb ideas fool me again
        Em                                C               D      Bm
Always lose myself in words in which I'm not holding the pen, oh


[Pre-Chorus]
                          Em      D
But now I'm done with pretending
                    A          D
I don't need happy endings anymore


[Chorus]
    G
Oh yeah
 D            Em      C
I'm tired of falling
    G
Oh yeah
     D              Em    C
For someone else's story
           G                D           Em
'Cause he gets the girl and I get papercuts
    C                  A           C        D          G
I guess it's time to write my own personal version of love

[Interlude]
G

[Verse 2]
                        G
Said it's just a script
A            Bm
Faces on a screen
            Em                                    C               D
Yet I'm in love with how in love they sound when all they are is acting
           G
It's unrealistic
A                     B
They're way too good looking
                 Em                                  C           D          Bm   D
Can't use their dialogue, might come off odd 'cause I'm no Ryan Gosling, oh


[Pre-Chorus]
                        Em     D
Don't need those sappy movies
                       A          D
Fairytales they don't suit me anymore


[Chorus]
    G
Oh yeah
 D            Em      C
I'm tired of falling
    G
Oh yeah
     D              Em    C
For someone else's story
           G                D           Em
'Cause he gets the girl and I get ticket stubs
    C                  A           C        D          G
I guess it's time to write my own personal version of love
        C        D          G
My own personal version of love
        C        D          Am
My own personal version of love


[Bridge]
Am                    G                     C
I'm tired of the fiction, all of the chick flicks
                     D
I want my own "Love Actually"
      Am                B           Am        C      D
'Cause who says that romance can't happen to me?

    G
Oh yeah
 D             Em      C
I'm tired of falling
    G
Oh yeah
     D              Em     C
For someone else's story


[Chorus]
    G
Oh yeah
 D            Em      C
I'm tired of falling
    G
Oh yeah
     D              Em    C
For someone else's story
         G                D        Em           C
I won't need one book to read, or one movie to see
                   C
'Cause I have the one
                           Am
But before that I need to write


[Outro]
        C        D          G    D
My own personal version of love
        C        D          G    D
My own personal version of love
        C        D          G    D
My own personal version of love
        C        D          G    D
My own personal version of love
        C        D          G
My own personal version of love
