[Verse 1]
D G
Mom says you haven't called her
Bm
And last time that she saw ya
G
It brought her to tears
D G
You're no good at faking
Bm
Late night, self-medicating
G
For weeks you disappear
[Pre-Chorus]
D G
My heart, it sinks every time the phone rings
Bm G
And I see the worst in my head
D G
And God only knows all the pain that you hold
Bm G
I wish I could take it instead
[Chorus]
D Em
If you were falling then I'd grow wings
Bm G
If you were drowning, I'd tear apart the sea
D Em
If you were a sinner, then I'd freeze hell
Bm
But I can't save you
G D
No, I can't save you from yourself
[Post-Chorus]
Em Bm
Save you, save you
G
Save you, save you from yourself
[Verse 2]
D G
It broke my heart to pieces
Bm
The night your car broke down
G
And you thought you couldn't call, hmm-mm
D G
You cried in the front seat
Bm
Feeling helpless, I feel guilty
G
Like it somehow is my fault
[Pre-Chorus]
D G
And my heart, it sinks every time that I think
Bm G
Of you riding so close to the edge
D G
And God only knows all the pain that you hold
Bm G
I wish I could take it instead
[Chorus]
D Em
If you were falling then I'd grow wings
Bm G
If you were drowning, I'd tear apart the sea
D Em
If you were a sinner, then I'd freeze hell
Bm
But I can't save you
G D
No, I can't save you from yourself
[Post-Chorus]

Save you, save you
G D
Save you, save you from yourself

Save you (If I could)

Save you (You know I would)

Save you, save you from yourself
(Wish I could save you from yourself)

Save you (If I could)
Bm
Save you (You know I would)

Save you, save you from yourself
(Wish I could save you from yourself)

Save you (If I could)

Save you (You know I would)

Save you, save you from yourself
(Wish I could save you from yourself)
