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