Capo 3
[Verse]
G D
I thought I saw an angel
Em C
Calling me across the yard
G D
She said baby, it's been real
C
Now I'm gone
G D
I should've known much better
Em C
You can't tame something that wild
G D
When I asked her if she loved me
C
She just smiled
[Chorus]
G
But it's my fault
D
I don't care
Em C
I can't hate you if you're not there
G D C
Once you go, never ever turn around
G D
I have sacrificed and I've burned
Em C
Oh, you gotta live before you learn
Em D C
And I wanted the truth but sometimes the truth hurts
[Verse]
G D
And my angel with her dirty wings
Em C
She used to make me smile
G D
She kept all of her secrets
C
locked inside
G D
In a place I could not reach her
Em C
Though I tried with all my might
G D
When I begged for something real
C
she said goodbye
[Chorus]
G
But it's my fault
D
I don't care
Em C
I can't hate you if you're not there
G D C
Once you go, never ever turn around
G D
I have sacrificed and I've burned
Em C
Oh, you gotta live before you learn
Em D C
And I wanted the truth but sometimes the truth hurts
[Bridge]
C Em D G
And I am sure it'll be just fine
C Em D
If I remember, she wasn't ever mine
C Em D G
And I am sure it'll be just fine
C Em D
If I remember, she wasn't ever mine
G D
And the truth about the two of us
Em C
Is we don't make no sense
G D
When we made love, our love
C
was just pretend
G D
And now I'm trying to forget her
Em C
But I feel her in my bones
G D
And I wonder if she thinks
C
of me at all
[Chorus]
G
But it's my fault
D
I don't care
Em C
I can't hate you if you're not there
G D C
Once you go, never ever turn around
G D
I have sacrificed and I've burned
Em C
Oh, you gotta live before you learn
Em D C
And I wanted the truth but sometimes the truth hurts
