I Give Up

        Em                     D  
I have drunk no well where the 
                     Em
water was bitter and cold
        Em                     
I have numbed all my senses and 
 D                      Em
cried for somebody to hold
                C                  
I have lied to myself I have lived 
     B7
in regret
        Em                         
and I know that I ain't seen the 
     C
end of it yet
        G                       D 
but I know there's a light up 
                     G
ahead and it's waiting for me

Chorus:
G       C
I give up
        G
cut me down
        D                          
give me water give me love give me 
G
rest
        C
I give up

        G
cut me down
        D
go ahead go ahead
        G
I confess

I have wasted my time I have lost 
what I cherished the most

The house is on fire and the closets
 are filled with my ghost

I have lied to my self I have lived 
in the rain

and I know that it's bound to start 
pouring again

but I know that there's a light up 
ahead waiting for me

I give up
cut me down
give me water give me love give me 
rest
I give up
cut me down
go ahead go ahead
I confess

        Em                      D
I wasted my time, I wasted my tears
        G                          
I ran until I thought the coast was
     C
 clear
        G               D         
but it never was now I'll 
            G
surrender my pain and my tears

I give up
cut me down
give me water give me love give me 
rest
I give up
cut me down
go ahead go ahead
I confess
