Intro:
[A] [Gbm] [Dbm7] [D]
Verse 1:
I don't [A]think you ever loved me and I have to believe that now
'Cause other[Gbm]otherwise, I'll look for love like yours in every place around
The love[Dbm7]love that flows like blood does, that I'll search for through the years
You speak[D]speak through gritted teeth, sayin', "My darlin', I'm right here"
And [A]it is not my fault, it's something I was learnin'
I [Gbm]only feel at home, now, in a home when it is burning
After [Dbm7]gathering this knowledge, I have to face the truth
That you[D]you never loved me, but I tried so hard to love you
Chorus:
And I [A]want you to try so that I can [Gbm]thank you for tryin'
And then m[Dbm7]maybe that will make you try some[D]some more
In the w[A]whites of your eyes, I can see they [Gbm]know of your crimes, but
Confession won't [E]slip willingly past your lips until you're on death's[D]death's door
It's not in my [Gbm]nature to forgive bad beh[E]behaviour except when it's[A]it's yours
Verse 2:
And what makes me go [A]crazy, I can never slam the door
If you walked in right [Gbm]now with a new lie, then I'd be yours
You've [Dbm7]always got a foot in, you've always got a start
And the f[D]fact you never take that chance, it xxxxxxx breaks my heart
And now[A]now I'm unforgiving, my mother doesn't understand
I wasn't [Gbm]born an angry child, but I became an angry man
Chorus:
And I [A]want you to try so that I can [Gbm]thank you for tryin'
And then m[Dbm7]maybe that will make you try some[D]some more
I [A]can’t stem the flow and [Gbm]God only knows
Where you hide your [Dbm7]stash of broken [E]glass as the red [D]pours
It's not in my [Gbm]nature, it's not in my [E]nature [A]
Interlude:
[A] [Gbm] [Dbm7] [D]
Bridge:
[A] Forgiveness was never my strong suit
[D] But neither was givin' up on you
[E] Forgiveness was never my strong[D]strong suit
Chorus:
And I [A]want you to try so that I can [Gbm]thank you for tryin'
And then [E]maybe that will make you try some [D]more
I [Gbm]can’t stem the flow and [D]God only knows
Where you hide your [Dbm7]stash of broken [E]glass as the red[D]red pours
Outro:
[A] I want you to try so that I can [Gbm]thank you for tryin'
And then [Esus4]maybe that will make you try some[D]some more
I can’t stem the [Gbm]flow and God only [Dbm7]knows
It's not in my [A]nature to forgive bad [E]behaviour, especially [Gbm]yours
