[Verse 1]
GBlack night sky before you said goodbye
AmYour rose colored sache and your cigarette ash
CYou left with your girlfriends before we made ameGnds
G14 days of pouring rain
AmDrips through the cracks around your window pain
CFilled up the holes wearing layers of your clothes
On the tGags you wrote my name
[Pre-Chorus]
BmWhy cant you make up your miCnd, this tiDme?
[Chorus]
GI've been reading all the letters that you wAmrote me
All the fairy tales you solCd me,
And all the pretty things you saiGd
GCan't stop thinking about the way that you cAmontrol me
Now you wish you'd never kCnown me
Oh how I wish you'd come and hoDld me, hold me, hold me
G Am C G
[Verse 2]
GI was staying at your house. You've been sleeping at his
AmYou're acting like momma to both his kids
CGot a two car garage, backyard that don't end and you're my only friendG  
GWhen the sun goes down this old house gets dark,
AmIt's hard to paint a portrait of my broke heart,
CI pick this up and the room fell right back apart
GAnd now I don't know where to start
[Pre-Chorus]
BmNow that you've made up your Cmind this timDe...
[Chorus]
GI've been reading all the letters that you wAmrote me
All the fairy tales you solCd me,
And all the pretty things you saiGd
GCan't stop thinking about the way that you cAmontrol me
Now you wish you'd never kCnown me
Oh how I wish you'd come and hoDld me, hold me, hold me
[Bridge]
Cadd9There is no beginniDng.
Cadd9Do you think that you're wiDnning?
D7You've made up your Emmind
Cadd9Why don't you make up the mDind?
[Chorus]
GI've been reading all the letters that you wAmrote me
All the fairy tales you solCd me,
And all the pretty things you saiGd
GCan't stop thinking about the way that you cAmontrol me
Now you wish you'd never kCnown me
Oh how I wish you'd come and hoDld me, hold me, hold me
GI've been sleeping in the place that you lAmeft me
Do you rCegret me?
Did you fGorget me?
GCan't stop thinking about the way that you cAmontrol me
Now you wish you'd never kCnown me
Oh how I wish you'd come and hoDld me, hold me, hold me

[Intro]

G Am C G

[Verse 1]

Black night sky before you said goodbye

Your rose colored sache and your cigarette ash

C G

You left with your girlfriends before we made amends

14 days of pouring rain

Drips through the cracks around your window pain

Filled up the holes wearing layers of your clothes

On the tags you wrote my name

[Pre-Chorus]

Bm C D

Why cant you make up your mind, this time?

[Chorus]

G Am

I've been reading all the letters that you wrote me

All the fairy tales you sold me,

And all the pretty things you said

G Am

Can't stop thinking about the way that you control me

Now you wish you'd never known me

Oh how I wish you'd come and hold me, hold me, hold me

G Am C G

[Verse 2]

I was staying at your house. You've been sleeping at his

You're acting like momma to both his kids

C G

Got a two car garage, backyard that don't end and you're my only friend

When the sun goes down this old house gets dark,

It's hard to paint a portrait of my broke heart,

I pick this up and the room fell right back apart

And now I don't know where to start

[Pre-Chorus]

Bm C D

Now that you've made up your mind this time...

[Chorus]

G Am

I've been reading all the letters that you wrote me

All the fairy tales you sold me,

And all the pretty things you said

G Am

Can't stop thinking about the way that you control me

Now you wish you'd never known me

Oh how I wish you'd come and hold me, hold me, hold me

[Bridge]

Cadd9 D

There is no beginning.

Cadd9 D

Do you think that you're winning?

D7 Em

You've made up your mind

Cadd9 D

Why don't you make up the mind?

[Chorus]

G Am

I've been reading all the letters that you wrote me

All the fairy tales you sold me,

And all the pretty things you said

G Am

Can't stop thinking about the way that you control me

Now you wish you'd never known me

Oh how I wish you'd come and hold me, hold me, hold me

G Am

I've been sleeping in the place that you left me

Do you regret me?

Did you forget me?

G Am

Can't stop thinking about the way that you control me

Now you wish you'd never known me

Oh how I wish you'd come and hold me, hold me, hold me

G Am C G
