Abm Gb Abm Gb
It could all be so simple, but you’d rather make it hard
Abm Gb Abm Gb
Loving you is like a battle, and we both end up scarred
Abm Gb Abm Gb
Tell me who I have to be, to get some reciprocity
Abm Gb Abm Gb
No one loves you more than me, and no one ever will
Verse 2: (Same chords as verse 1)
Is this just a silly game, that forces you to act this way
Forces you to scream my name, then pretend that you can’t stay
Tell me who I have to be, to get some reciprocity
No one loves you more than me, and no one ever will
Hook:
Bbm D7 Ebm
No matter how I think we grow, you always seem to let me know
Abm Ebm
It ain’t workin, It ain’t workin
Bbm Am Abm
And when I try to walk away, you hurt yourself to make me stay
B Ebm
This is crazy, This is crazy
Verse 3: (Same chords as other verses)
I keep letting you back in, how can I explain myself
As painful as this thing has been, I just can’t be with no one else
See I know what we’ve got to do, you let go and I’ll let go too
‘Cause no one loves you more than me, and no one ever will
REPEAT HOOK
Outro: (Same Chords as Hook)
Care for me, care for me, I know you care for me
There for me, there for me, Said you’d be there
Cry for me, cry for me, You said you’d die for me
Give to me, give to me, Why don’t you live for me
REPEAT OUTRO
SOLO (Same chords as Outro, just solo in Ebm)I'm tabbing from memory
with no guitar, so I
REPEAT OUTRO WHILE FADING OUT...
