Capo 3
(VERSE)
[G]I gave all my [D]oxygen to [Em]people that could [C]breath
I [G]gave away my [D]money and now [Em]we don't even [C]speak
I [G]drove miles and [D]miles, but would you [Em]do the [D]same for [C]me?
Oh [G]ho-[D]o-[G]onestly
[G]Offered off my [D]shoulder just for [Em]you to cry [C]upon
[G]Gave you constant [D]shelter and a [Em]bed to keep you [C]warm
[G]They gave me the [D]heartache and in [Em]return I [D]gave a [C]song
Its goes [G]o-o-on [D] and [G]on
(CHORUS)
[C]Life can get you [G]down so I just [D]numb the way it [G]feels
I [C]drown it with a [G]drink and out of [D]date prescription [Em]pills
And [C]all the ones that [D]love me they just [Em]left me [D]on the [C]shelf
My farewell [A7]
So before I [Am7]save someone else, I've [Am7]got [G/B]to [C]save [D/F#]myself[G]
(VERSE)
I [G]gave you all my [D]energy and I [Em]took away your [C]pain
'Cause [G]human beings are [D]destined to [Em]radiate or [C]dream
[G]What line do we [D]stand upon 'cause from [Em]here it [D]looks the [C]same?
And [G]only [D]scars [G]remain
(CHORUS)
[C]Life can get you [G]down so I just [D]numb the way it [G]feels
I [C]drown it with a [G]drink and out of [D]date prescription [Em]pills
And [C]all the ones that [D]love me they just [Em]left me [D]on the [C]shelf
My farewell [A7]
So before I [Am7]save someone else, I've [Am7]got [G/B]to [C]save [D/F#]myself[G]
(BIRDGE)
But if I [Em]don't, hen I'll go [C]back
To where I'm [G]rescuing a stranger
Just [D]because they needed saving just like [Em]that
Oh, I'm here [C]again
Between the [G]devil and the danger
But I [D]guess it's just my nature
My dad was [C]wrong
'Cause I'm not like my [D]mum
'Cause she'd just [Em]smile and I'm [D]complaining in a [C]song
But it [A7]helps
So before I [Am7]save someone else, I've [Am7]got [G/B]to [C]save [D/F#]myself[G]
(CHORUS)
[C]Life can get you [G]down so I just [D]numb the way it [G]feels
I [C]drown it with a [G]drink and out of [D]date prescription [Em]pills
And [C]all the ones that [D]love me they just [Em]left me [D]on the [C]shelf
My farewell [A7]
So before I [Am7]save someone else, I've [Am7]got [G/B]to [C]save [D/F#]myself[G]
And before I [Am7]blame someone else, I've [Am7]got [G/B]to [C]save [D/F#]myself[G]
And before I [Am7]love someone else, I've [Am7]got [G/B]to [C]love [D/F#]myself[G]
