[Verse 1]
EShe was storming through the house that day
And I could tell she was leaving
And I thought, "Aww, she'll be back"
Till she turned around and pointed at the wall and said
EThat picture from our honeymoon, that night in 'Frisco E7Bay,
Just give it Aaway, she said give it Eaway.
EAnd that big four-poster, king-size bed, where so much love was E7made
Just give it aAway, she said just give it EawayE7  
[Chorus]
Just give it Aaway
There ain't nothing in this house worth fighting Eover.
Oh, aB7nd we're both tired of fighting Aanyway,
So just give it Eaway.
[Verse 2]
ESo I tried to move on,
But I found that each woman I held
Just reminded me of that day.
EWhen that front door swung wide open, she flung her diamond rE7ing
Said give it Aaway, just give it Eaway.
And I said, "Now honey, don't you even want your half of E7everything?"
She said give it Aaway, just give it Eaway.
[Chorus]
Just give it Aaway
There ain't nothing in this house worth fighting Eover.
Oh, aB7nd we're both tired of fighting Aanyway,
So just give it Eaway.
[Verse 3]
ESo I'm still right here where she left me,
Along with all the other things she don't care about anymore.
ELike that picture from our honeymoon, that night in Frisco E7Bay,
She said give it Aaway, well I can't give it Eaway.
EAnd that big four-poster, king-size bed, where all our love was E7made,
She said give it Aaway, well I can't give it Eaway.
[Outro]
EI got a furnished house, a diamond ring,
And a lonely, broken heart full of Alove.
And I can't even give it Eaway.

The story behind the song

This song tells the story of a man whose wife is leaving him, born from the inspiration of a divorce. As she departs, he asks what he should do with their shared possessions, to which she repeatedly tells him to "give it away," finding nothing in the house worth fighting over after their many arguments. Ultimately, he is left with all the physical items but a broken heart, a pain so profound he "can't even give it away." It's a poignant reflection on loss and the things that truly matter when a relationship ends.

[Verse 1]

She was storming through the house that day

And I could tell she was leaving

And I thought, "Aww, she'll be back"

Till she turned around and pointed at the wall and said

E E7

That picture from our honeymoon, that night in 'Frisco Bay,

A E

Just give it away, she said give it away.

E E7

And that big four-poster, king-size bed, where so much love was made

A E E7

Just give it away, she said just give it away

[Chorus]

Just give it away

There ain't nothing in this house worth fighting over.

B7 A

Oh, and we're both tired of fighting anyway,

So just give it away.

[Verse 2]

So I tried to move on,

But I found that each woman I held

Just reminded me of that day.

E E7

When that front door swung wide open, she flung her diamond ring

A E

Said give it away, just give it away.

And I said, "Now honey, don't you even want your half of everything?"

A E

She said give it away, just give it away.

[Chorus]

Just give it away

There ain't nothing in this house worth fighting over.

B7 A

Oh, and we're both tired of fighting anyway,

So just give it away.

[Verse 3]

So I'm still right here where she left me,

Along with all the other things she don't care about anymore.

E E7

Like that picture from our honeymoon, that night in Frisco Bay,

A E

She said give it away, well I can't give it away.

E E7

And that big four-poster, king-size bed, where all our love was made,

A E

She said give it away, well I can't give it away.

[Outro]

I got a furnished house, a diamond ring,

And a lonely, broken heart full of love.

And I can't even give it away.
