Verse 1:
Db                  Ab   
  Long hours and a few dying flowers
         Bbm                   Gb   Gbsus2
But you never seem to stick around
Db                   Ab   
  How could you let something so good
         Bbm                       Gb
Go to waste and bleed the colours out?
 
Pre-Chorus:
         Bbm                             Ab
You don't  know what you got 'til it's gone
                                     Fm
Know when it's right 'til it's wrong
                              Gb
In search of perfect when you had it with you all along
Bbm                                  Ab
  You broke her heart down with ease
                               Fm
Now I'm picking up every piece
                          Gb
You must be so hard to please
 
Chorus:
                Db
I wish I could say
Ab                           Bbm
 "Thank you for all the mistakes
Gb                           Db    Ab
  Thank you for all of the pain"
            Bbm                  Gb
I guess somebody else's loss is another's gain
           Bbm                              Ab      Gb
I'm saying thank you to the one who let her get away
   Db
Away
 
Verse 2:
Db                           Ab   
  She gave you love, but it wasn't enough
             Bbm                      Gb   Gbsus2
You had your mind set out on other things
     Db                           Ab   
Can't sleep at night, now you're paying the price
         Bbm                             Gb
You let another come and take your place

Know when it's right 'til it's wrong
                              Gb
In search of perfect when you had it with you all along

  You broke her heart down with ease
                               Fm
