[Intro]

C#min   E (022100@1) F#m (244222@1) A (x02220@1)[Verse 1]

C#min
  Wrap me in a bolt of lightning
E (022100@1) Send me on my way still smiling
F#m (244222@1) Maybe that's the way I should go
A (x02220@1) Straight into the mouth of the unknown
C#min
  I left the spare key on the table
E (022100@1) Never really thought I'd be able
F#m (244222@1) To say I merely visit on the weekends
A (x02220@1) I lost my whole life and a dear friend

[Pre-Chorus]

F#m (244222@1)          A (x02220@1) I've said it so many times
E (022100@1)                 B (x2444x@1) I would change my ways - No, never mind
F#m (244222@1)            A (x02220@1) God knows I've tried

[Chorus]

C#min       E (022100@1)     F#m (244222@1)     A (x02220@1) Call me a sinner, call me a saint
C#min          E (022100@1)             F#m (244222@1)        A (x02220@1)    
  Tell me it's over I'll still love you the same
C#min          E (022100@1)       F#m (244222@1)       A (x02220@1) Call me your favorite, call me the worst
C#min          E (022100@1)          F#m (244222@1)       A (x02220@1)  Tell me it's over I don't want you to hurt
       A (x02220@1)      B (x2444x@1)   C#min
  It's all that I can say 
      A (x02220@1)     B (x2444x@1)   C#min
  So, I'll be on my way

[Interlude]

C#min   E (022100@1) F#m (244222@1) A (x02220@1)[Verse 2]

C#min
  I finally put it all together
E (022100@1) That nothing really lasts forever
F#m (244222@1) I had to make a choice that was not mine
A (x02220@1) I had to say goodbye for the last time
C#min
  I kept my whole life in a suitcase
E (022100@1) Never really stayed in one place
F#m (244222@1) Maybe that's the way it should be
A (x02220@1) You know I live my life like a gypsy

[Pre-Chorus]

F#m (244222@1)          A (x02220@1) I've said it so many times
E (022100@1)                 B (x2444x@1) I would change my ways - No, never mind
F#m (244222@1)            A (x02220@1) God knows I've tried

[Chorus]

C#min       E (022100@1)     F#m (244222@1)     A (x02220@1) Call me a sinner, call me a saint
C#min          E (022100@1)             F#m (244222@1)        A (x02220@1)

  So, I'll be on my way

[Bridge]

A (x02220@1) I'll always keep you inside
E (022100@1)                          B (x2444x@1) You healed my heart and my life
F#m (244222@1)            A (x02220@1) And you know I tried

[Chorus]

C#min       E (022100@1)     F#m (244222@1)     A (x02220@1) Call me a sinner, call me a saint

  So, I'll be on my way

------------------------------------

There is a small outro after the final chorus where five chords are played slowly and
I couldn't get the exact chords or combination, but I think it contains basically the same
as the rest, possibly a G#5 as well or something. But yeah, I couldn't get that bit.

It terms of the song itself, I love it; melodically, lyrically - it's just completely
Big thanks to sdpeter for the chords (which he submitted as a comment in response to the
lot of Call Me chords up here), and of course thanks to Shinedown for making the song in 
first place. Ciao!
