[Intro] |A E |D A |E D |E A | | | D |A | [Verse]
A                         D              G      D        A
Lately, I've been givin' everything I've got to feeling alone

A                      D           G         D            A
Baby you got me livin' one of them hard luck songs on the radio

                    F#m                     D
Oh and I know, if I change the station I'll get the same song

F#m                  D
Hope it ain't on the top too long
[Pre-Chorus]
         A                                Em
'Cause I really couldn't take it but they kept on playin' it

     A               Em7
It's too unhappy and too close to home

A                               Em                        A
I don't want to hear it but the singer keeps singin' that song
[Chorus]
              D         G
I gave you my love, you denied it

                   C             G        A
Then I gave you my life, but you wouldn't stay

      D               G                 A
And I hope you will return it to me someday

              D         G
I gave you my love, you didn't earn it

                   C            G         A
Then I gave you my life but you threw it away

      D               G                 A
And I hope you will return it to me someday
[Verse]
                 D                      G         D         A
Some days I just sit around and kind of dream and watch the rain

                             D                    G         D      A
Or I'll pick up some ol' magazine of yours that I forgot to throw away

          F#m               D
Then I'll sleep a little or walk the floor,

     F#m                     D
I'll smoke a lot more than I did before

     F#m             D
I'll call somebody I used to know,

        G                          F#m
just to try to stay away from that radio
[Pre-Chorus]
        A                                Em
'Cause I really couldn't take it but they kept on playin' it

     A               Em7
It's too unhappy and too close to home

A                               Em                        A
I don't want to hear it but the singer keeps singin' that song
[Chorus]
              D         G
I gave you my love, you denied it

                   C             G        A
Then I gave you my life, but you wouldn't stay

      D               G                 A
And I hope you will return it to me someday

              D         G
I gave you my love, you didn't earn it

                   C            G         A
Then I gave you my life but you threw it away

      D               G                 A
And I hope you will return it to me someday

              D         G
I gave you my love, you didn't earn it

                   C            G         A
Then I gave you my life but you threw it away
