verse 1
C G Dm
Rolling through the canyon blasting Heartbreaker
C G Dm
I see your famous face riding next to me
F C G D
We smile at each other 'cause we know we know each other
F C G
But damn if I'm gonna talk to you again
Dm
I always thought that you were funny
C G
I always thought we could be friends
Dm C G
But the way you treated her in the end
[Refrão] C G Dm F
All the horses and all the men couldn't bring her back again
C G Dm F
And we tried so hard, we couldn't save her day
C G Dm F
All the millions and the billions of stars that shine into her eyes
C G Dm
Are barely bright enough to light her way
verse 2
C G Dm
So she covered herself in sorrow and shame
C G Dm
And smoke and mirrors and fame
F C G D
And fake love, angry love, bad love and sad love
F C G
And damn if I didn't almost do the same
Dm C G
And now sometimes I think I see her and I can almost hear her cry
Dm C G
I hear those chilling words she chose to say goodbye
[Refrão] C G Dm F
All the horses and all the men couldn't bring her back again
C G Dm F
And we tried so hard we couldn't save her day
C G Dm F
All the millions and the billions of stars that shine into her eyes
C G Dm
Are barely bright enough to light her way

He was predictable, cliche, and cruel to you

He made it ugly, and he made it high-school

He said I love you I need you I want you I'll feed you
F C G C
I get you, I've got you, I'll catch you and I'll keep you
F C G
My sweet, you will never be sad again
F C G
He said my sweet, you will never be sad again
[Refrão] C G Dm F
All the horses and all the men couldn't bring her back again
C G Dm F
And we tried so hard, we couldn't save her day
C G Dm F
All the millions and the billions of stars that shine into her eyes

I swear sometimes I can almost hear her say
verse 3
C G Dm F
That we're just bones and a name, we all go out the way we came
C G Dm F
So don't you try to tell me that love is all we need
C G Dm F
We're just bones and a name we all go out the way we came
C G Dm F
So don't you try to tell me that love is all we need
C G Dm F
Don't you try to tell me that love is all we need
