Chords
I did this chord chart on piano but its meant to be
picked on a guitar so a lot of this song has
to be from listening to it to get a feel for
how to play it on whichever instrument.
During the verses where they have the first
chord sustained, they alternate within the lead guitar
between sus4 and sus2- listen to the song for the
main instrumental melody.
[Verse 1]
Eb Oh god this hurts. I'm holding myself together, I'm doing your work. (Eb) You say the damage has been done, and there's not use carrying on like we're Eb/Bb (add6) still in love. Bb You didn't even think to tell me things would be fine. Eb Eb/Ab Eb/Bb Left nothing to assure your heart still beats with mine.
[Chorus]
Eb/Ab Eb/G Bb Eb/Ab You never meant to cause me pain, you never meant to be that way. (Eb/Ab Eb/G Bb I don't know if I can last another day in your arms. Eb/Ab Eb/G Bb Eb/Ab Open the curtains to the sun, crawl down the fire escape and run, (Eb/Ab) Bb/G Eb/C I gotta get away from the hold you got on me.
[Verse 2]
Eb I've given you all the tools to make me stay. (Eb) Eb/Ab Eb/Bb I'm singing out ultimatums everyday.
I don't think I'd ever have the strength to up and leave.
Eb/Ab Eb/G Bb I wanna love you all the time, won't you just let me?
[Chorus]
Eb/Ab Eb/G Bb Eb/Ab You never meant to cause me pain, you never meant to be that way. (Eb/Ab Eb/G Bb I don't know if I can last another day in your arms. Eb/Ab Eb/G Bb Eb/Ab Open the curtains to the sun, crawl down the fire escape and run, (Eb/Ab) Bb/G Eb/C I gotta get away from the hold you got on me.
