Intro

D#sus2 A# F Gm Dm D# F A#
[Verse 1]
D#sus2 A# F Gm
I cut the rope and threw her out
Dm D# F A#
Out on the street like a garbage sack
D#sus2 A# F Gm
And every day she's calling me up
Dm D# F A#
I don't see why she'd wanna come back
[Pre-Chorus 1]
F Gm
Knocking on her best friend's door
F A#
"Is it okay if I crash here?"
[Chorus 1]
D# A# Cm A#
She never had a fighting chance
D# A# Cm A#
Guess the hearts of former holds
D# A# Cm A#
'Cause she didn't know what she'd gotten into
F F
She belongs with the gentle souls
[Verse 2]
D#sus2 A# F Gm
There was a time I can't recall
Dm D# F A#
When I believed everything I said
D#sus2 A# F Gm
And I kept playing before it all built up
Dm D# F A#
The petty lies that she was fed
[Pre-Chorus 2]
F Gm
Looking for a stranger, still
F A#
I don't know who I should marry
[Chorus 2]
D# A# Cm A#
She never had a fighting chance
D# A# Cm A#
Guess the hearts of former holds
D# A# Cm A#
'Cause she didn't know what she'd gotten into
F Gm F A#
She belongs with the gentle souls

[Verse 3]
D#sus2 A# F Gm
I cut the rope and threw her out
Dm D# F A#
And changed the lock on my front door
D#sus2 A# F Gm
She tried her key and it didn't work
Dm D# F A#
I don't know why she's back for more
[Pre-Chorus 3]
F Gm
Knocking on her best friend's door
F A#
"Is it okay if I crash here?"
[Chorus 3]
D# A# Cm A#
She never had a fighting chance
D# A# Cm A#
Guess the hearts of former holds
D# A# Cm A#
'Cause she didn't know what she'd gotten into
F F
Now she belongs with the gentle souls
D# A# Cm A# D# A# Cm A#
Now she belongs with the gentle souls
D# A# Cm A# D# A# Cm A#
She never had a fighting chance
