Capo 1st fret
[Verse 1]
A A/E F#m D5
I gave all my oxygen to people that could breath
A A/E F#m D5
I gave away my money and now we don't even speak
D5 E5 F#5 E5 D5
And I drove miles and miles but would you do the same for me?
A E5 A
Oh ho-o-o-onestly
A A/E F#m D5
Offered off my shoulder just for you to cry upon
A A/E F#m D5
Gave you constant shelter and a bed to keep you warm
D5 E5 F#5 E5 D5
They gave me the heartache and in return I gave a song
A E5 A
Its goes o-o-o-on and on
[Chorus 1]
D5 A E5 A
Life can get you down so I just numb the way it feels
D5 A E5 E5/F F#5
I drown it with a drink and out of date prescription pills
D5 E5 F#5 E5 D5 B5
And all the ones that love me they just left me on the shelf, my farewell
Bm7 D5 A/E Asus4/E A5/E A
So before I save someone else, I've got to save my----self
[Verse 2]
A A/E F#m D5
I gave you all my energy and I took away your pain
A A/E F#m D5
'Cause human beings are destined to radiate or dream
D5 E5 F#5 E5 D
What line do we stand upon 'cause from here it looks the same?
A E5 A
And only scars remain
[Chorus 2]
D5 A E5 A
Life can get you down so I just numb the way it feels
D5 A E5 E5/F F#5
I drown it with a drink and out of date prescription pills
D5 E5 F#5 E5 D5 B5
And all the ones that love me they just left me on the shelf, my farewell
Bm7 D5 A/E Asus4/E A5/E A
So before I save someone else, I've got to save my----self
[Bridge]
F#m
But if I don't
D5 A
Then I'll go back, to where I'm rescuing a stranger
E5 F#m
But just because they needed saving just like that
D5 A
Oh I'm here again, between the devil and the danger
E5 D5
But I guess it's just my nature, my dad was wrong
E
'Cause I'm not like my mum
F#5 E5 D5 B5
'Cause she'd just smile and I'm complaining in a song, but it helps
Bm7 D5 A/E Asus4/E A5/E A
So before I save someone else, I've got to save my----self
[Chorus 3]
D5 A E5 A
Life can get you down so I just numb the way it feels
D5 A E5 E5/F F#5
I drown it with a drink and out of date prescription pills
D5 E5 F#5 E5 D5 B5
And all the ones that love me they just left me on the shelf, my farewell
Bm7 D5 A/E Asus4/E A5/E A
So before I save someone else, I've got to save my----self
D5 D5 A/E Asus4/E A5/E A
And before I blame someone else, I've got to save my----self
D5 D5 A/E Asus4/E A5/E A
And before I love someone else, I've got to save my----self
