Intro Chords: Em D G
Em D A
Verse:
Em D
It's got my name on it
G C Em
And it's just waiting there for me
D A
I feel the cold run through my veins
Em D
And it's got her shame on it
G C Em
She couldn't say it to my face
D A
But I won't waste time placing blame

Chorus:
C G
I know I'll move on
B Em D
I tell myself I'll find me something better
C G B
I'll let go and just forget her
C G
She was no good for me
B Em D
Deep down I know that's the way it has to be so
C G B
How come I still can't open this letter?
Em D G
I can't forget her
Em D A
Really wish I could
Verse 2:
Em D
There must be a name for it
G C Em
Whatever this is you've done to me
D A
I'm all twisted up inside
Em D
Well who's gonna pay for it?
G C Em
If it's not you I guess it's me
D
You left me with your life
A
And took mine
[Chorus]
C G D
I can't forget her
C G D
Really wish I could
C G B Em D C G
Really wish I could
B
Oh yeah
[Chorus]
Outro:
Em D
It's got my name on it
G C
And it's just waiting there for me
