[Verse]

         C             
I was in love once.      
      Em
I was afraid. 
                  F         G   
Thought she might leave me        
             C
one of these days.
         C             
I was so frightened     
         Em
I was so scared
         F          G   
A life without her     
                C
I just couldn't bare.
 
 
[Bridge]

Am
Feels like I'm slowly 
losing my mind
     F
the jealousy is visible 

though love may be blind
      Am
These feelings I have 

just cant push away
       F              G (last bar is just base note ringing)
I'd do anything   
              G 
to get her to stay.
 
 
[Verse]

             C            
She broke my heart once       
      Em
never again
            F   G     
all down to me            
                       C
yeah i'll take all the blame. 
               C         
I held her too closely     
               Em
I held her too tight
             F     G       
I understand now             
                    C
That's why she took flight
 
 
[Bridge]

Am
Kill her with kindness.   

My love was blind.
F
She couldn't live with 

my jealous mind
Am
slowly but surely 

I pushed her away
F                          
I'd do anything   anything, 
                 G     G
but now it's too late.
 
 
[Verse]

             C      
I'm still in love     
          Em
I'm still afraid 
           F          
Hoping and praying 
            G  
she'll come back     
             C
one of these days.
