Save My Life

	  		

Intro: Am C G Dm Am C G 

Verse:
 
Am          C 
You leave a trail of my broken tears, 
Dm          G 
Empty words for me to fall, 
Am               C 
Broadway at dark is where you left my heart, 
Dm             G 
Love is cursed in a bar, 

Am                  C 
Now I can't get up, Now I can't get down 
Dm                 G 
With all the games that you play, 
Am             C 
You shut me up and you shut me out, 
Dm                 G 
It's all the same, nothing's changed, 

Pre-Chorus:
 
Am                  C 
Got me on the ledge where you keep me waiting, 
Dm                           G 
Standing on the edge and I'm begging, begging, 
Am                                C                     Dm 
I can't read your mind, won't you help me draw the line? 


        Dm           Am 
Save my life, set me free, 
             C                   G 
These lonely nights are haunting me, 
       Dm           Am 
Cut me out from the cold, 
           C                G 
This young heart is getting old, 
        Dm           Am 
Save my life, set me free, 
       C           G 
Yes or no is all I need, 
          Dm       Am              C 
You don't want me, darling, let me know, 

Just say goodbye and I'll go, 


Interlude: Am C Dm G 

Verse:
 
Am            C                  Dm 
You're taking more than you even need, 
              G 
See, you just keep me hard-up, 
Am                C                   Dm 
Watch the minutes stare, they pass me by, 
                G 
Watch the hours flare, push the throttle, 

Pre-Chorus: 

Am                  C 
Got me on the ledge where you keep me waiting, 
Dm                           G 
Standing on the edge and I'm begging, begging, 
Am                                C                     Dm G 
I can't read your mind, won't you help me draw the line? 


        Dm           Am 
Save my life, set me free, 
             C                   G 
These lonely nights are haunting me, 
       Dm           Am 
Cut me out from the cold, 
           C                G 
This young heart is getting old, 
        Dm           Am 
Save my life, set me free, 
       C           G 
Yes or no is all I need, 
          Dm       Am              C 
You don't want me, darling, let me know, 

Just say goodbye and I'll go,

Hold on to you, 

I ain't got time,
