Verse 1:
A                  E   
  Long hours and a few dying flowers
         Gbm                   D   Dsus2
But you never seem to stick around
A                   E   
  How could you let something so good
         Gbm                       D
Go to waste and bleed the colours out?
 
Pre-Chorus:
         Gbm                             E
You don't  know what you got 'til it's gone
                                     Dbm
Know when it's right 'til it's wrong
                              D
In search of perfect when you had it with you all along
Gbm                                  E
  You broke her heart down with ease
                               Dbm
Now I'm picking up every piece
                          D
You must be so hard to please
 
Chorus:
                A
I wish I could say
E                           Gbm
 "Thank you for all the mistakes
D                           A    E
  Thank you for all of the pain"
            Gbm                  D
I guess somebody else's loss is another's gain
           Gbm                              E      D
I'm saying thank you to the one who let her get away
   A
Away
 
Verse 2:
A                           E   
  She gave you love, but it wasn't enough
             Gbm                      D   Dsus2
You had your mind set out on other things
     A                           E   
Can't sleep at night, now you're paying the price
         Gbm                             D
You let another come and take your place
 
Pre-Chorus:
         Gbm                             E
You don't  know what you got 'til it's gone
                                     Dbm
Know when it's right 'til it's wrong
                              D
In search of perfect when you had it with you all along
Gbm                                  E
  You broke her heart down with ease
                               Dbm
Now I'm picking up every piece
                          D
You must be so hard to please
 
Chorus:
                A
I wish I could say
E                           Gbm
 "Thank you for all the mistakes
D                           A    E
  Thank you for all of the pain"
            Gbm                  D
I guess somebody else's loss is another's gain
           Gbm                              E      D
I'm saying thank you to the one who let her get away
   D   
Away
