G There goes my old girlfriend, D there's another diamond ring. Em And, uh, all those late night promises C I guess they don't mean a thing. So, baby, what's the story? Did you find another man? Is it easy to sleep in the bed that we made? When you don't look back D I guess the feelings start to fade away I used to feel your fire But now it's cold inside And you're back on the street Like you didn't miss a beat, yeah Chorus: A# F Tell me what it takes to let you go. A# F Tell me how's the pain supposed to go. A# A Dm Tell me how it is that you can sleep, Dm in the night Dm Without thinking you lost ev'rything that was good in your A# life to the toss of the dice?, C# F Tell me what it takes to let you go. Girl, before I met you I was F.I.N.E, fine But your love made me a prisoner Yeah, my heart's been doing time You spent me up like money Then you hung me out to dry It was easy to keep all your lies in disguise 'Cause you had me in deep with the devil in your eyes Chorus C G Tell me that you're happy that you're on your own. A# F Yeah, tell me that is better when you're all alone. Fm D# C# Tell me that your body doesn't miss my touch. G# Tell me that my loving didn't mean that much.
