Key: A
Introduction:
F#m A7M Bm
True love is a rose behind glass
F#
It's locked and kept closed
A B C
Maybe just to me 'cause my heart's been attacked
F E
Shattered by tough love, bad love
F#m A7M
so bought mine off the street
Bm F#
true love, man, it just can't be beat
A B C Gm7 F E
I felt so complete, married to heavenly bodies above
F7M Am E11 E
And each night I look up at a bright honeymoon
F#m A7M
'cause it sure seemed built to last
Bm F# A
and even after my honeymoon past I kept right with that, man,
B C F E
Like a ghost to the house it once haunted
F#m A7M
And day after day
Bm F#
I'd steal with my true love away
A B C
To some hideout we left undisturbed
F E
we could do what we wanted
F7M Am E11 E
But I started to feel like a liar saying "I love you"
Dm C Bb
She was madly in love, and mad mean there was no in-between
E riff1
Dm C Bb
I found I can't make a stand i'm her hired hand
E riff1
F#m A7M Bm F#
One day I got sick, she played me a nasty old trick
A B
Said, "I need cigarettes"
C Gm7 F E
Walked around the block caught a cab
F#m A7M
Stayed gone for too long
Bm F#
My love had gotten too strong
A B C
Just to try to getting back on my own
F Eriff
I had to go to rehab
Dm C Bb
All I need is a safe place to bleed
E riff1
Dm C
Half of no chance, steps in a dance
Bb E
rest of my live spin in combat
A A7M
Now I'm the king of the ward
A4 A6
'cause I'm good and I swallow my sword
A B C Gm7 F E
Puke it up for the doctor to write a new prescription
F#m A7M
tranquil as a dove
Bm F#
people that have lost their true love
A B C Gm7 F E
that all seem to fit the same description
F7M Am
I feel cold, useless and old
E11 E
Wish I was no one
A A7M A A7M
Take me up, my love
A A7M A A7M
Take me up today
A A7M A A7M
Take me out of this place
A A7M A A7M
Take me up with you today
