Tabbed By: Guitar_Guru_Por
Intro Dm C G (4x)
Em Am
I was young and I was a victim of her killer smile
F C
Her love was cheap and it was great for a little while
Em Am
I had to leave but she wanted me stay
F C
And she ripped up my shirt and left the marks of her disdain
(Repeat Intro 3x)
I couldn't take it no more
I couldn't spend another night alone
I couldn't take it no more
F
If this is where we ended up
G C F
Then I refuse to be so hard on myself this time
Dm
If everything I have is gone
E E7
Then what is wrong
Am C/B A7 (A7*) (See Note)
In spending time with you
F (8th fret)
I'll keep you warm
Em (7th fret)
You'll hold me tight

This might be our only night
(Intro 4x)
I can't give up
(repeat verse)
I tried to reconcile
But it never made a difference
You could cut the atmosphere with a knife
It was so tense and cold
And every time I tried to get little closer to you
You got further and further away from me
Until you faded into the distance
Yes you did
There was nothing I could do
(repeat chorus)
If this is where we ended up
Then I refuse to be so hard on myself this time
If everything I have is gone
Then what is wrong
In spending time with you
I'll keep you warm
When you hold me tight
Coz this might be our only night
This might be the only night
I can't spend another night alone
If this is where we ended up
Then I refuse to be so hard on myself this time
If everything I have is gone
Then what is wrong
In spending time with you
If this is where we ended up
Then I refuse to be so hard on myself this time
If everything I have is gone
Then what is wrong
In spending time with you
F (8th fret) Em (7th fret)
Keep me warm and I hold you tight
