[Verse 1]
G             F              C  
  We met some time ago, when we 
            Am
were almost young
Bm                    Am          
  It never crossed my mind to ask,
 F     C            G
 where did you come from?
G                    F         C
  I didn't have much money, so I
             Am
 stole you a rose
Bm                         Am    
  You were dressed like an 
        F              G
orphan, in Salvation Army clothes

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Dm                    C          
  I never thought I'd lose ya, no
       G         C
 - I'd rather go blind
Dm                    Bm         
  I thought I saw the future, but
                    C
 the fortune teller lied

[Chorus 1]
C                   Dm      F   
Your love was my salvation,   it
                  C
 could always get   me high
C                  Dm      F    
What was once holy water,     
                 C
tastes like bitter wine

[Verse 2]
G                 F              
  I know I wasn't funny, but you 
C              Am
laughed at all my jokes
Bm                          Am   
  When I was choking on the words
        F                C        
 to say, you shoved your finger 
      G
down my throat
G                          F     
  The first night I said I loved 
         C                Am
you, you told me to go to hell
         Bm                      
You were giving me head, on that 
Am              F               
creaky, old bed at the Ol'Duvol 
G
Hotel

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Dm           C               Bm 
  Just like everything, even 
              C
good love has to die
Dm         C        Bm          
  Ain't no sympathy when it 
     C
sayes goodbye

[Chorus 1]
C                   Dm      F   
Your love was my salvation,   it
                   C
 could always get me high
C                    Dm    F    
What was once holy water,    
                C
tastes like bitter wine

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Dm           C               Bm 
  Just like everything, even 
              C
good love has to die
Dm         C        Bm          
  Ain't no sympathy when it 
     C
sayes goodbye

[Link]
Am                   C           
No one even cried, we're one of a
       Dm   F   C
 kind, one of a kind

[Chorus 2]
C                   Dm           
Love let me stranded at the 
   F                      C
station   and the last train's gone 
by
C                    Dm    F    
What was once holy water,    
                C
tastes like bitter wine

[Chorus 3]
C                       Dm       
Your love was my salvation, it 
        F               C
could always get me high
C                    Dm      F  
You take the bag of holy water, 
             C
now all that's left is bitter wine
