Tuning:
I recommend playing this song in Eb Standard tuning, in the key of D! These chords are
in original key.
(F#/F is simply dropping the root of the chord one half step to serve as a step down to
the G#7. The same is true of the G#/C, which is easiest done by dropping the root a
single half step.)
Intro: A#m F# C# G# (x2)
I'm burned out with a bA#mright ligF#ht, I wasn't rC#eady for tG#his.
You're adoA#mrable as hF#ell, but I'm C#glancing at your G#wrists.
Oh, please have fA#maith, I canF# be so caC#valier. G#
And when they sA#mtart to ask quF#estions I'll make sC#ure to be cG#lear.
When you see my frF#iends, telF#/Fl them hi forG#7 me.
Tell them what you tC#hink about theG#/C way you handled evA#merything.
You tuF#rned and all you F#/Fleft me with was this bG#7roken key.
A#m F# C# G# A#m
F#So tC#ell G#me what you think.
Give it up for the lA#mong nighF#ts and all those terC#rible fiG#ghts.
Were you hA#monest with yourF#self, every veC#rsion of yoG#urself?
Did you get lA#most on the sF#ide of the rC#oad? G#
If you keep aA#mcting this F#way, I swear I'll neC#ver come hG#ome.
When you see my frF#iends, telF#/Fl them hi forG#7 me.
Tell them what you tC#hink about theG#/C way you handled evA#merything.
We waF#lked along on this bF#/Froken road for eG#7ternity
So give me cC#ompany and help me G#/Csing this lonely mA#melody.
You tuF#rned and all you F#/Fleft me with was this brG#7oken key.
A#m F# C# G# A#m
F#So tC#ell G#me what you think.
Sign me A#mup, no regF#rets, make a mC#an out of G#me.
And I woA#mn't say a wF#ord and I'll give C#all the tG#hings
That you A#mwant and I nF#eed just to gC#ive me some peG#ace.
At the boA#mttom of the oF#cean there's a pC#lace for you and G#me.
A#m F# C# G#
LeadA#m the waF#y straight ahead, you gave me the time of my life
And it C#cut like a kG#nife to the bA#mone. F#
(Acoustic)
When you see my frF#iends, telF#/Fl them hi forG#7 me.
Tell them what you tC#hink about theG#/C way you handled evA#merything.
So nF#eat and clean, well the wF#/Forld is full of such prG#7etty things.
So do your best for C#me. G#/C A#m
Outro: F# F#/F G#7 C#
G#/C A#m F# F#/F G#7 C#
