Capo 4th fret
Standard (EADGBE)
Intro 2x
I hate to be
To be the one
Who's given up and feels that all our hope is gone
But what I thought
Was a miracle
Just turned into the same old
Problem that it was
Prechorus
She longs for better days
She's always been afraid
Chorus
It's a shame, oh it's a shame
That you are throwing your whole life away
It's a shame, oh it's a shame
I wonder if you're ever going to change
It's a shame
Verse 2
Ever since I can recall
She has been so afraid
Of you losing it all
What do you want?
Do you even know?
And is it worth the pain?
We all have to endure
Prechorus
She longs for better days
She's always been afraid
Chorus
Bridge
You left her without leaving
You hit her without swinging
You took away without giving a thing
Except for pain and sorrow
I'm praying that tomorrow
You will open up your eyes and see
