Intro
Am G x2
[Verse 1]
Am
She doesn't need him
He's left her alone
F
She's into the pills
E
And she's turned off her phone
Am
He's left her a message
To make sure she's okay
F
She doesn't care
E
For her life anyway
F
Anyhow lately
D
She's been so depressed
G Am
Keeping all of her feelings repressed
Dm
He loves her
G
She loves him
Em
But she's just far too scared to let anyone in
[Chorus]
Am
I've thrown out my life
Gm
I'll give it away
C
If you really love me
F Em Am
Then tell me you're okay
C G
I'll be the bandage on scars that we made
F C G Am
And leave you alone as our memories fade
C G F Em
They fade
[Interlude]
Am E Gm D
F C F E
[Verse 2]
Am
She's crying again
E
She's needing her drugs
Gm D
Soon she'll be passed out alone on her rug
F
Thinking of him
C
She thinks too good for her
F E
She never knew what he thought
She deserved
Am
Now that her phone's off
E
He's worried sick
F
He's racing to her bedroom
E
And he better get there quick
Am
She's bleeding on the floor
E
Now it's all on his hands
F
He didn't have to lose her
E
She'll never understand
F
Anyhow lately
Dm
He's losing his mind
G
Crying over her
Am
When he thought he'd be fine
Dm
She's flat-out depressed
G
Now he's gone unstable
E
Finally the cards
Are laid down on the table
[Chorus]
Am
I've thrown out my life
Gm
I'll give it away
C
If you really love me
F Em Am
Then tell me you're okay
C G
I'll be the bandage on scars that we made
F C G Am
And leave you alone as our memories fade
C G F Em
They fade
Am
[Bridge]
Am
We had it all
I gave you myself
F
You've always been hopeless
E
You were beyond help
Am
(But) I couldn't leave
This addiction was sick
F
It's only getting worse
E
But I cared too much to quit
Am
Call after call
Em
Her tears put out the sun
F
I'm finally leaving
G
I'm finally done
[Chorus]
Am
I've thrown out my life
Gm
I'll give it away
C
If you really love me
F Em Am
Then tell me you're okay
C G
I'll be the bandage on scars that we made
F C
And leave you alone as our memories fade
[Outro]
G
If you could just see
Am
How much I cared
There'd be no need
C
For all this despair (They fade...)
G
We called it love
F
God, were we wrong
E
I could have saved you
Am
But now you are gone
