_ _ Now I have nothing, so [D] God _ give me _ strength.
_ [C#m] Cause I'm weak _ _ [F#m] in a way.
[A] _ [C#m] And if I'm strong, _ _ _ [F#m] I might [E] _ [F#]
still break.
_ [Bm] And I don't [D] have anything [G] to share.
_ [Bm] _ But I won't [D] throw away [E] until [A] the _ _ _ _ [G] end.
That _ song [A] you sung [Bm] at _ _ [Em] _ _
this _ [A] bell's rung at.
[D] [Em] She was [Bm] the [F#m] light that [A] I'd [D] black.
[A] _ _ _ [Em] She took [F#m] my last chance [A] of happiness.
_ _ [Gm] So God _ give [Bm] me strength.
_ _ _ _ _
God [Em] _ give [D] me strength.
_ [G] _ _ _ _
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Bm] _ _
I can't hold on to [G] a God.
_ Give [D] me strength _ _ [C#m] when the phone _ _ [F#m] doesn't ring.
_ _ [C#m] And I'm _ _ lost [F#] in _ _ imagining.
_ [Bm] _
Everything [D] that kind of [G] love is worth.
_ _ _ [Bm] _
As I stumble back [A] down to the _ [E] _ earth.
[G] _
That _ _ [F#m] song you [A] sung at [F#m] _ _
[Em] _ this _ [A] bell's _ rung at.
[D] _
[Em] She [F#m] was the light that [A]
I'd black.
_ _ _ [Em]
She [Em] took [F#m] my [A] last chance of _ _ happiness.
[Gm] So _ _ God give [Bm] me strength. _ _ _ _
[D] God [Em] _ give [D] me strength.
She grant [G] me her _ [Em] indulgence and I _ _ [D] will swell.
[F#m] Wipe her [G] from my memory.
_ _ _ _ [Em] _
[A] Fracture [B] the spell.
[F#m]
She becomes [G] my enemy. _
_ [F#m] And maybe [G#m] I was washed [E] out like a lip print [A] on his shirt.
_ [Bm] See I'm [G#m] only [E] human.
[A] I want him [G] to.
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] I [G] want him.
_ I want him [Bm] to.
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [C#m] _
_ _ _ _ _ [F#m] _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[B] _ _ [F#] _ _ _ [Bm]
Since I [F#m] lost the power to [G]
pretend.
_ That _ [Bm]
there could [E] ever be a [A] happy _ ending.
_ [D] _ [G] _
_ That _ [F#m] song you _ [A] sung at _ [Em] _
_ this _ [A] bell's _ rung at.
_ [Em]
She was [F#m] the light [A] that I'd black.
_ _ _ [Em]
She took [F#m] my last [A] chance of _ happiness.
_ [Gm] So God give [Bm] me strength.
_ _ _ _ [Em] _
_ _ God give me _ [D] strength. _ _
_ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Gm] _
_ _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Gm] _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ Wipe her from my memory.
_ _ [Gm] _ _
[F#m] _ I might as [D] well. _
_ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _
[E] _ [D] _ _ Wipe her from my memory.
_ _ _ [G] _
_ [Bm] _ _ _ God give [D] me strength.
_ _ [Gm] _
