Verse 1 (Finger Pick)
G
Sun came up and five years gone
C                            G
Life goes on, yeah life goes on
Em       F#                 G
I wonder how you're gettin' by
G               
Sun goes down and I feel blue
C                             G
Now I toss 'cause my minds on you
Em       F#                  G
I kinda miss that broken smile


Chorus/refrain

So save part of yourself for me

Verse 2
G
I remember you and me
C                            G
Lost and young and dumb and free
Em      F#               G
And unaware of years to come
G
Just a whisper in the dark
C                      G
On the pavement in the park
Em            F#              G
You Taught me how to love someone


Em              F#                G
So save part of yourself for me
C                          Cm            (Intro)
Won't you save part of yourself.. for me


(Intro)

Verse 3
G
When we walk into the sun
C                          G
Or burn below for what we done
Em        F#                G
Will you still call out for me?
G
Turn to light or fade to black
C                            G
Don't look back, no you don't look back
Em           F#               G
at what you might not want to see


Em                FF#          G
Save part of yourself for me
C                    Cm
oh, save part of yourself for me.
