        VERSE 1:

        E
        You gave me such pretty things
        Am
        That still hang on my wall
        E
        Reminds me of the times when you and I
        Am
        We had it all



        REFRAIN:

        E		Cmaj7
        If I held you up
		D*	Cmaj7
        You held me down (I know)
        E			Cmaj7
        You say that you're done
        			D*
        You say that you're gone
        		Cmaj7
        But you never go


        CHORUS:

        G		    D
        You're burning your bridges
        		C
        You're digging a hole
        		   Am			    G
        You've turned into someone I don't even know
        		      D			C
        It's sad that we're over but I'm not surprised

        It's the best thing that ever happened in my life


        VERSE 2:

        E
        My everything I gave to you
        Am
        You're all about greed
        E
        I'd take from you what I could use
        Am
        But you've got nothing I need


        REFRAIN

        CHORUS

        G		    D
        You're burning your bridges
        		C
        You're digging a hole
        		   Am			    G
        You've turned into someone I don't want to know
        	D			C
        I'm disappointed but I'm not surprised

        It's the best thing that ever happened in my life

        E Am (2x's)


        End on E
