[Intro]


C#min   E   F#m   A


[Verse 1]


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


[Pre-Chorus]


F#m            A
  I've said it so many times
E                   B
  I would change my ways - No, never mind
F#m              A
  God knows I've tried


[Chorus]


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


[Interlude]


C#min   E   F#m   A


[Verse 2]


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


[Pre-Chorus]


F#m            A
  I've said it so many times
E                   B
  I would change my ways - No, never mind
F#m              A
  God knows I've tried


[Chorus]


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


[Bridge]


A
  I'll always keep you inside
E                            B
  You healed my heart and my life
F#m              A
  And you know I tried


[Chorus]


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