Verse: 
E5           D5 
It's got my name on it  
G5              C5                E5 
And it's just waiting there for me  
            D5                   A5 
I feel the cold run through my veins  
E5                 D5 
And it's got her shame on it  
G5            C5             E5 
She couldn't say it to my face  
                   D5            A5 
But I won't waste time placing blame  
C5                G5 
I know I'll move on  
   B5                        E5         D5 
I tell myself I'll find me something better  
C5        G5             B5 
I'll let go and just forget her  
            C5       G5                
She was no good for me  
      B5                             E5    D5 
Deep down I know that's the way it has to be so  
C5           G5                      B5 
How come I still can't open this letter?   
         E5        D5    G5 
I can't forget her  
              E5    D5   A5 
Really wish I could  
 
Verse 2: 
E5              D5 
There must be a name for it  
G5             C5                 E5 
Whatever this is you've done to me  
           D5         A5 
I'm all twisted up inside  
E5                D5 
Well who's gonna pay for it?  
G5            C5               E5 
If it's not you I guess it's me  
                       D5 
You left me with your life 
          A5 
And took mine  
 
{Chorus} 
         C5         G5    D5 
I can't forget her  
              C5     G5   D5 
Really wish I could  
 

                C5   G5  B5  E5  D5  C5  G5 
Really wish I could  
     B5 
Oh yeah  
 
{Chorus}  
 
Outro: 
E5          D5 
It's got my name on it  
G5               C5 
And it's just waiting there for me
