Capo 3rd Fret
Verse:
D D/G# Em Em7 A D
He gives her attention, he's constantly, carefully planting the seeds
D/G# Em Em7 A Bm
The only thing missing, is really the only thing she needs
G A Bm G A
And he can't give that to her and she can't find it with him
Bm G A Em Em7 A
So she'll have to find her way out of love she's not really in
Chorus:
G A D
She can live with what goes with leaving
G A D
She knows it's the only way
G A Bm
Though it kills her to give up believin'
Em Em7 A
She can't live with herself if she stays
G A D
She could settle for what she'd be feeling
G A G
If she gave in and worked this one out
Em Em7 D
She doesn't want the kind of love she can live with
Em7 D A D G D G
She wants the kind of love she can't live without
Verse:
D D/G# Em Em7 A D
She looks in the mirror and sees all the sadness in her eyes
D/G# Em Em7 A D
It's never been clearer what he's asking her to sacrifice
G A Bm G A
But she can't be his forever, she can't even be his for now
Bm G A Em Em7 A
She'll have to be kind to them both and let go of him somehow
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
G A G
And the hardest part is she loves him
Em Em7 D
But she doesn't want the kind of love she can live with
Em7 D A D G
She wants the kind of love she can't live without
