Intro
Em G C Am
[Verse 1]
Em G C Am
Found you on the roadside
Em G C Am
Little cuts and bruises underneath your chin
Em G C Am
You begged them to bury you
Em G C Am
Before your life sets in
Em G C Am
She sees me in the garden
Em G C Am
Pulling petals off the flowers
Em G C Am
She closes all the windows
Em G C Am
Shuts down on the bed and shivers
[Chorus]
Em G C Am Em G
Take her back in time to the place before it happened
C Am
Before it happened
Em G C Am Em G
Take me back in time to the place where it happened
C Am
Where it happened
[Bridge]
Em G C Am
[Verse 2]
Em G C Am
He scratched your eyes, your pretty eyes
Em G C Am
With a handful of rusty nails
Em G C Am
And then he pushed you into a ditch
Em G C Am
With the slugs and the snails
Em G C Am
I'm so angry she's not angry
Em G C Am
Every second of every hour
Em G C Am
She shuts the door and slides the latch in
Em G C Am
Tries to wash him off in the shower
[Chorus]
Em G C Am Em G
Take her back in time to the place before it happened
C Am
Before it happened
Em G C Am Em G
Take me back to the roadside where, where it happened
C Am
Before it happened
Em
Where it happened
G
Where it happened
C Am
Where it happened
[Verse 3]
Em G C Am
He lay there for three days
Em G C Am
Your heart held in his knuckles
Em G C Am
He tried to pull out your hair
Em G C Am
Rip the scalp with his buckle
Em G
Look at you now (Look at you now)
C Am
You're like no girl I know
Em
I would have stabbed him
G
(who would have stopped me?)
C
I would have stabbed him
Am
(you would have stopped me)
Em G C Am
Dead, dead ,dead (xmultiple times)
