The Receiving End Of It All Chords

(ver. 2)
Toh Kay
Capo 1

Intro: Am

Verse 1:

Am                          C        
So Marigold, my love, you've had too much to drink,

    F                         G               E
And I need not remind you, our discount tickets for this sinking ship.

Am                                  C   
Take-backs and sweet regrets, that's all that we have left.

F                          G         E
  No one is looking out for anyone but number one.

Am                      C    
One to one, two to dance, we all get our sweet romance,

       F                                  G            E
Though sour grapes will turn to wine, its all just vinegar with time,

  Am              C                   F
And oh, you want to know, we all want to know,

        G      E
How can anybody treat somebody so?


Chorus:

Fm                        *C# (Play once and let ring)          Fm
  She said, It hurts too much, I said, It will never hurt enough,

                          *C                          G
No one will ever see these cuts, no one will ever call this bluff, but that's just the way...

Am         G              F            C
And when he left us he said, It's not so bad.

Am        G              F            C
That motherf**ker, he took everything we had,

Am          G                 F               C
And when I'm thinking back, I'm counting all the ways,

Am    G               F               C
Nobody helped us, so we dreamt of better days,

       G
And we sang, That's just the way that...

Am                    F                   C                G
We used to be in love (my love!), but now we're just in like,

       Am           F            C              G
And we broke all our promises, and baby that ain't right

            Am        F        C      G      Am    F
Because you don't know what it's like to lose it all........

C     G      Am    F
Nooooooooo, Noooooooooo

         C            G               Am
You were not on the receiving end of it all!

     F
Nooooooo

         C            G               Am
You were not on the receiving end of it all!

            F         C             G
You beg and plead, but no one here can save you -

Am            F            C          G
Why would they try when they can't quite save themselves?


Break: Am


Verse 2:

Am                        C
So Marigold, someday we'll have to write a script,

    F                     G               E                 Am
But I won't stop denying ashamed of all the selfish things we did.

                            C 
Dropped out of every single friendship that you had,

F                               G               E              Am
  They nearly loved you, but you never could have loved somebody back.

                C               F                  G
Tell me of your sorrows, tell me everything from the start,

E                 Am           
I'd like to do my part to help a friend in need -

C
  I said you could come to me,

F                                  G              E
But when you needed someone most, I wasn't there, I wasn't even...


Chorus:

Em                        *C                                   Em
  She said, It hurts too much, I said, It will never hurt enough,

                          *C                          G
No one will ever see these cuts, no one will ever call this bluff, but that's just the way...

Am         G              F            C
And when he left us he said, It's not so bad.

Am        G              F            C
That motherf**ker, he took everything we had,

Am          G                 F               C
And when I'm thinking back, I'm counting all the ways,

Am    G               F               C
Nobody helped us, so we dreamt of better days,

       G
And we sang, That's just the way that...

Am                    F                   C                G
We used to be in love (my love!), but now we're just in like,

       Am           F            C              G
And we broke all our promises, and baby that ain't right

            Am        F        C      G      Am    F
Because you don't know what it's like to lose it all........

C     G      Am    F
Noooooooooooo, Noooooooooooo

         C            G               Am
You were not on the receiving end of it all!

     F
Noooooooooooo

         C            G               Am
You were not on the receiving end of it all!

            F         C             G

Am            F            C          G       Am
