Intro: Bm G D A

Verse 1:
    Bm         G           D
For years, you fed me only crumbs
            A    Bm
You paid me only dust
       G               D          A
Said I was too hard to love, woah
    Bm       G              D
For years, I tried to rise above
         A         Bm
Was only light and love
        G                   D         A
But now I'm, "Shut the xxxx up," woah

Pre-chorus:
G                      A
 You know I gave and I gave
               Gbm
Now I'm giving up
                             Bm   A
There's nothing more you can take
  G                         A
No, I don't want to cause a scene
                Gb7
But give me the gasoline

Chorus:
              Bm               G
Tonight's the night, I light a match
         D                   A
Throw it hard behind my back
      Bm        G
Gonna try to forgive and forget
D                            A    Bm
Light a cigarette, and watch it   burn
         G          D                A
With the past, I'ma breathe in the ash
      Bm        G
Gonna try to forgive and forget
      D                      A    (nc)
Light a cigarette, and watch it   burn

Verse 2:
      Bm      G              D
Thank you for showing me the pain
             A      Bm
This was not a   mistake
       G                D      A
The mistake would be to stay, ayy

Pre-chorus:
G                      A
 You know I gave and I gave
               Gbm
Now I'm giving up
                             Bm   A
There's nothing more you can take
  G                         A
No, I don't want to cause a scene
                Gb7
But give me the gasoline

Chorus:
              Bm               G
Tonight's the night, I light a match
         D                   A
Throw it hard behind my back
      Bm        G
Gonna try to forgive and forget
D                            A    Bm
Light a cigarette, and watch it   burn
         G          D                A
With the past, I'ma breathe in the ash
      Bm        G
Gonna try to forgive and forget
      D                      A    Bm
Light a cigarette, and watch it   burn

Outro:
          G            D
I'm gonna get what I deserve
                  A       Bm
I'm sorry, I know that it hurts
        G            D
Finally I put myself first
          A    Bm
And watch it   burn
          G            D
I'm gonna get what I deserve
                  A       Bm
I'm sorry, I know that it hurts
        G            D
Finally I put myself first
          A    (nc)
And watch it   burn
