D Em I guess this time you're really leaving G D I heard your suitcase say goodbye Em Well as my broken heart lies bleeding G D You say true love, it's suicide Em You say you cried a thousand rivers G D And now you're swimming for the shore Em You left me drowning in my tears G A And you won't save me anymore A I pray to God you'll give me one more chance, girl Chorus: D I'll be there for you Bm These five words I swear to you G When you breathe I want to be the air for you A C G D I'll be there for you D I'd live and I'd die for you Bm Steal the sun from the sky for you G Words can't say what a love can do A C G D I'll be there for you I know you know we've had some good times Now they have their own hidin' place Well, I can promise you tomorrow But I can't buy back yesterday And, baby, you know my hands are dirty (And baby you know my hands are dirty) But I wanted to be your valentine I'll be the water when you get thirsty, baby When you get drunk, I'll be the wine Chorus A G And I wasn't there when you were happy A (I wasn't there to make you happy) D Bm I wasn't there when you were down G I didn't mean to miss your birthday, baby A I wish I'd seen you blow those candles out Chorus - x2 Woah, oh, oh, woah, oh, oh, woah, oh, oh, woah Woah, oh, oh, woah, oh, oh, woah, oh, oh, woah Woah, oh, oh, woah, oh, oh, woah, oh, oh, woah You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  C  D  Em  G  Bm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
