Dm
Easy come, easy go;
That’s just how you live, oh,
 Am
Take, take, take it all,
But you never give.
  Dm
Should’ve known you was trouble
From the first kiss;
         Am             A
Had your eyes wide open.
Why were they open?

    Dm
   Gave you all I had
   And you tossed it in the trash.
        Am
   You tossed it in the trash; you did.
       Dm
   To give me all your love
                          A#
   Is all I ever asked, ’cause
                         A
   What you don’t understand is,

Chorus:
                     Dm       A#
     I’d catch a grenade for ya
             F
     (Yeah, yeah),
               C          Dm       A#
     Throw my hand on a blade for ya
             F
     (Yeah, yeah).
                   C          Dm       A#
     I’d jump in front of a train for ya
             F
     (Yeah, yeah).
                   C      Dm       A#
     You know I’d do anything for ya
             F
     (Yeah, yeah).
         C            A#                  C
     Oh, oh, I would go through all this pain,
             F                 A         Dm
     Take a bullet straight through my brain.
      C            A#                A
     Yes, I would die for you, baby,
     But you won’t do the same.

Dm Dm    Am          Am
        No, no, no, no.

  Dm
Black, black, black and blue;
Beat me ’til I’m numb;
          Am
Tell the devil I said, “Hey”,
When you get back to where you’re from.
 Dm
Mad woman, bad woman;
That’s just what you are.
               Am
Yeah, you’ll smile in my face,
               A
Then rip the brakes out my car.

    Dm
   Gave you all I had
   And you tossed it in the trash.
        Am
   You tossed it in the trash; yes, you did.
       Dm
   To give me all your love
                          A#
   Is all I ever asked, ’cause
                         A
   What you don’t understand is,

Chorus:
                     Dm       A#

Gm        Gm              Dm
   If my body was on fire,
               Dm                          Gm
   Ooh, you’d watch me burn down in flames.
   You said you loved me; you’re a liar,
               Am          A             Dm
   ’Cause you never, ever, ever did, baby.
Dm  A#         A
         But, darling,

Chorus:
                           Dm       A#
