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