      C                   F           C
Oh, a TV went off like three day old milk 
       C        F         G*          C*
They shut this town down better than most 
       D               Bm         Am       F     C          
And it always was less of an idea and more of a boast 

            C               F       C
Oh, you're burning in the bloom of life 
  C          F     G*       C*
'Til you're powder in the grave 
           D               Bm                  Am
Or you're pounding on the counter begging for more 
      F    C
'Til you evaporate 

 Ab               Gm 
You'd forgive her anything 
F       Bb        F        Bb    Ab      
If you look like you, my pretty miss 
           Gm             F
I wonder where you are tonight 
       Bb        F       Bb  C*
When this place becomes pitiless 

Repeat intro

       C                     F         C
Oh, I couldn't sleep, but I can't complain 
         C                          F           C
(Oh, she offered it all but she forgot to say when) 
          C            F             G*          C*
Oh, this won't hurt a bit, oh, this won't hurt again 
          D              Bm                 Am  F C
When the roof comes down and the walls move in 

       C                    F          C
Oh, I didn't know it could feel like that 
           C            F           G*          C*
When your face turned away and the day turned black 
         D                Bm
And the rain fell like a curtain 
         Am      F     C 
Oh, it's my turn to begin 
C      F       G*   C*
To forgive her anything 

 Ab               Gm
You'd forgive her anything 
F        Bb      F        Bb
If you knew what I have known 
Ab                Gm
You'd forgive her anything 
 Ab            Gm
(It's forgiven and forgotten) 
     F       Bb       F    Bb A
So where did all my pride go? 
 
Ab        Gm              F Bb F Bb
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh 
Ab        Gm              F Bb F Bb A 
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh 

 Ab               Gm
You'd forgive her anything 
F        Bb      F        Bb
If you knew what I have known 
Ab              Gm
I've been given and forgotten 
 F         Bb      F      Bb A
More than you will ever know

Ab        Gm              F Bb F Bb
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
