Listen to the song a few times to figure out where exactly your supposed to change chords. By request
Tune the guitar a half step down
Intro: [D], [Bm], [G], [A]
([D]) She was cryin' out my name, ([Bm]) standing in the ([G]) driveway
Little bare feet wearin' her cotton dress in my way
([D]) I still see the rain, ([Bm]) chasin' tears down ([G]) her face
It was back in October when I said it's over and hid
([Bm]) Behind the ([A]) door, behind the ([G]) shame of my conviction
([Bm]) Bedside my([A])self, beside some ([G]) empty pill prescr i ption
I can hear her screamin' out...
Chorus:
([D]) No baby ([A]) don't, your making my heart hurt
([Bm]) Don't say those words
([G]) Take it back, you ([A]) know you don't mean that
([D]) You swore when I wore your ([A]) ring
It meant forever
([Bm]) I've got it on baby ([A]), how can you say I ([G]) lost it
Oh, you promised
([D]) Started crying while I was asleep ([Bm]) wakin' up and ([G]) reachin' out
To a bed as empty as the heart inside my chest
([D]) So I gathered up some pictures ([Bm]), I said I had somethin to ([G]) give her
I let her read a letter I had written her to give her on the day we tied the knot
([Bm]) I saw the ([A]) tears, I saw em ([G]) fall as she read the part about growin' old
([Bm]) I heard her ([A]) words, I heard her ([G]) say it'll never work
And hit my knees and cried...
Chorus:
([D]) No baby ([A]) don't, you're making my heart hurt
([Bm]) Don't say those words
([G]) Take it back, you ([A]) know you don't mean it
([D]) You swore when you wore my ([A]) ring
It meant forever
You've ([Bm]) got it on baby ([A]), how can you say you ([G]) lost it
Yeah when you ([Bm]) promised
([Bm]) We were different people then
([A]) Look at all the hateful things we've said
([G]) And I'm just as guilty, but girl that's no way to be
([Bm]) Yeah, take it easy baby I'm still broken
([A]) Memories enough to tear me wide open
([G]) When you see me girl you curse my name
Makes me wanna say no
Chorus:
([D]) No baby ([A]) don't, you're making my heart hurt
([Bm]) Don't say those words
([G]) Take it back, you ([A]) know you don't mean that
([D]) And you know when you wore my ([A]) ring
We said forever
But you ([Bm]) took it off ([A]) baby, safe to say we're ([G]) through
But no ([Bm]) matter what you do ([A]) you know I'll always ([G]) love you
Hell I have to
Cause I promised
