Verse1:

G                  D
I thought I saw an angel
         Em            C
Calling me across the yard
           G             D
She said  baby, it's been real
         C
Now I'm gone
G                       D
I should've known much better
          Em                    C
You can't tame something that wild
       G                     D
When I asked her if she loved me
            C
She just smiled


Chorus:

           G
But it's my fault
         D
I don't care
          Em                    C
I can't hate you if you're not here
         G          D           C
Once you go, never ever turn around
      G                  D
I have sacrificed and I burned
             Em               C
Oh, you gotta live before you learn
        C                 D                      C
And I wanted the truth but sometimes the truth hurts


Verse2:

        G              D
And my angel with her dirty wings
    Em              C
She used to make me smile
      G              D             C
She kept all of her secrets locked inside
G                  D
In a place I could not reach her
          Em               C
Though I tried with all my might
          G                  D                     C
When I begged for something real she said goodbye


Chorus:

            G
And it's my fault
         D
I don't care
          Em                    C
I can't hate you if you're not here
         G          D           C
Once you go, never ever turn around
      G                  D
I have sacrificed and I burned
             Em               C
Oh, you gotta live before you learn
        C                 D                      C
And I wanted the truth but sometimes the truth hurts


Bridge:

    C    Em        D        G
And I am sure it'll be just fine
        C          Em           D
If I remember, she wasn't ever mine
    C     Em       D        G
And I am sure it'll be just fine
       C           Em         D
If I remember, she wasn't ever mine


Verse3:

         G               D
And the truth about the two of us
   Em                C
Is we don't make no sense
     G                  D                     C
When we made love, our love was just pretend
G                  D
And now I'm trying to forget her
   Em                 C
But I feel her in my bones
      G                D                  C
And I wonder if she thinks of me at all


Chorus:

           G
But it's my fault
         D
I don't care
          Em                    C
I can't hate you if you're not here
         G          D           C
Once you go, never ever turn around
      G                  D
I have sacrificed and I burned
             Em               C
Oh, you gotta live before you learn
        C                 D                      C
And I wanted the truth but sometimes the truth hurts

        G                 D                      G
And I wanted the truth but sometimes the truth hurts
