Intro Chords: Em  D  G 

              Em  D  A 
Verse: 
Em           D 
It's got my name on it  
G              C                Em 
And it's just waiting there for me  
            D                   A 
I feel the cold run through my veins  
Em                 D 
And it's got her shame on it  
G            C             Em 
She couldn't say it to my face  
                   D            A 
But I won't waste time placing blame  
C                G 
I know I'll move on  
   B                        Em         D 
I tell myself I'll find me something better  
C        G             B 
I'll let go and just forget her  
            C       G                
She was no good for me  
      B                             Em    D 
Deep down I know that's the way it has to be so  
C           G                      B 
How come I still can't open this letter?   
         Em        D    G 
I can't forget her  
              Em    D   A 
Really wish I could  
 
Verse 2: 
Em              D 
There must be a name for it  
G             C                 Em 
Whatever this is you've done to me  
           D         A 
I'm all twisted up inside  
Em                D 
Well who's gonna pay for it?  
G            C               Em 
If it's not you I guess it's me  
                       D 
You left me with your life 
          A 
And took mine  
 
{Chorus} 
         C         G    D 
I can't forget her  
              C     G   D 
Really wish I could  
 

                C   G  B  Em  D  C  G 
Really wish I could  
     B 
Oh yeah  
 
{Chorus}  
 
Outro: 
Em          D 
It's got my name on it  
G               C 
And it's just waiting there for me
