Verse 1:
Ab                  Eb   
  Long hours and a few dying flowers
         Fm                   Db   Dbsus2
But you never seem to stick around
Ab                   Eb   
  How could you let something so good
         Fm                       Db
Go to waste and bleed the colours out?
 
Pre-Chorus:
         Fm                             Eb
You don't  know what you got 'til it's gone
                                     Cm
Know when it's right 'til it's wrong
                              Db
In search of perfect when you had it with you all along
Fm                                  Eb
  You broke her heart down with ease
                               Cm
Now I'm picking up every piece
                          Db
You must be so hard to please

                Ab
I wish I could say

Db                           Ab    Eb
  Thank you for all of the pain"
            Fm                  Db
I guess somebody else's loss is another's gain
           Fm                              Eb      Db
I'm saying thank you to the one who let her get away
   Ab
Away

You had your mind set out on other things

Can't sleep at night, now you're paying the price

You let another come and take your place
