Intro: Dm C Bb C Dm C Bb
Dm C Bb
I can't believe that it hurts, 'cause it hurts when I bleed
C Dm C Bb
And she closes the door when she leaves from my life.
C Dm C Bb
And I told you before, when you break you can't break anymore
C Dm C Bb
When you left with the dead on the floor tonight.
Dm C
Oh, I'm standing on the edge of us
Bb
But I won't look down.
Bb
As I dive from the rooftop, screaming your name,
C Dm
Getting close to the concrete, baby, you know it's true,
Dm
Baby, I'd die for you.
C Bb
As I fly through the air in the corner of my eye
C Dm
See your face in the crowd got nothing else left to prove.
C Bb
I told you I'd die for you,
(Ringing Bb) Dm C Bb
Baby, I'd die for you.
C Dm C Bb
Baby, I'd die for you.
Dm C Bb
It's okay, carry on, we don't know what we've got 'till it's gone,
C Dm C Bb
Baby, you will be the lonely one, next time.
