Capo di fret 3
GD
I gave all my oxygen
EmC
to people that could breath
GD
I gave away my money and
EmC
now we don't even speak
GD
I drove miles and miles
EmDC
but would you do the same for me?
GDG
hoo..ooo..nestly
GD
Offered off my shoulder just
EmC
for you to cry upon
GD
Gave you constant shelter and
EmC
a bed to keep you warm
GD
They gave me the heartache
EmDC
and in return I gave a song
GDG
Its goes o..ooon and on
(Chorus)
CG
Life can get you down
DG
so I just numb the way it feels
CG
I drown it with a drink
DD/F#Em
and out of date prescription pills
CD
And all the ones that love me
EmDC
they just left me on the shelf
A7
My farewell
Am7
So before I save someone else
Am7G/BCD/F#G
I've got to.. save myself
GD
I gave you all my energy
EmC
and I took away your pain
G
'Cause human beings are
DEmC
destined to radiate or dream
GD
What line do we stand upon
EmDC
'cause from here it looks the same?
GDG
And only scars remain
(Chorus)
CG
Life can get you down
DG
so I just numb the way it feels
CG
I drown it with a drink
DD/F#Em
and out of date prescription pills
CD
And all the ones that love me
EmDC
they just left me on the shelf
A7
My farewell
Am7
So before I save someone else
Am7G/BCD/F#G
I've got to.. save myself
Em
But if I don't,
C
then I'll go back
G
To where I'm rescuing a stranger
D
Just because..
Em
they needed saving just like that
C
Oh, I'm here again
G
Between the devil and the danger
D
But I guess it's just my nature
C
My dad was wrong
D
'Cause I'm not like my mum
Em
'Cause she'd just smile
DC
and I'm complaining in a song
A7
But it helps
Am7
So before I save someone else
Am7G/BCD/F#G
I've got to.. save myself
(Chorus)
CG
Life can get you down
DG
so I just numb the way it feels
CG
I drown it with a drink
DD/F#Em
and out of date prescription pills
CD
And all the ones that love me
EmDC
they just left me on the shelf
A7
My farewell
Am7
So before I save someone else,
Am7G/BCD/F#G
I've got to.. save myself
Am7
And before I blame someone else,
Am7G/BCD/F#G
I've got to.. save myself
Am7
And before I love someone else,
Am7G/BCD/F#G
I've got to.. love myself
