Verse 1:
Gb                  Db   
  Long hours and a few dying flowers
         Ebm                   B   Bsus2
But you never seem to stick around
Gb                   Db   
  How could you let something so good
         Ebm                       B
Go to waste and bleed the colours out?
 
Pre-Chorus:
         Ebm                             Db
You don't  know what you got 'til it's gone
                                     Bbm
Know when it's right 'til it's wrong
                              B
In search of perfect when you had it with you all along
Ebm                                  Db
  You broke her heart down with ease
                               Bbm
Now I'm picking up every piece
                          B
You must be so hard to please
 
Chorus:
                Gb
I wish I could say
Db                           Ebm
 "Thank you for all the mistakes
B                           Gb    Db
  Thank you for all of the pain"
            Ebm                  B
I guess somebody else's loss is another's gain
           Ebm                              Db      B
I'm saying thank you to the one who let her get away
   Gb
Away
 
Verse 2:
Gb                           Db   
  She gave you love, but it wasn't enough
             Ebm                      B   Bsus2
You had your mind set out on other things
     Gb                           Db   
Can't sleep at night, now you're paying the price
         Ebm                             B
You let another come and take your place

You don't  know what you got 'til it's gone
                                     Bbm
Know when it's right 'til it's wrong
                              B
In search of perfect when you had it with you all along
Ebm                                  Db
  You broke her heart down with ease
                               Bbm
Now I'm picking up every piece

You must be so hard to please
