G            F              C              Am
We met some time ago, when we were almost young
Bm                   Am            F                  G
It never crossed my mind to ask, where did you come from?
G                   F        C             Am
I didn't have much money, so I stole you a rose
Bm                       Am             F        G
You were dressed like an orphan, in Salvation Army clothes

Dm                   C                  G         C
I never thought I'd lose ya, no - I'd rather go blind
I thought I saw the future, but the fortune teller lied

Chorus:
C                   Dm    F                         C
Your love was my salvation, it could always get me high
C                   Dm   F                    A# F
What was once holy water, tastes like bitter wine

I know i wasn't funny, but you laughed at all my jokes
When i was chaking on the words to say
You shoved your finger down my throat
The first night i said i loved you, you told me to go to hell
You were giving he head, on that creeky
Old bed at the ol'duvol motel

Chorus

Just like everything, even good love has to die
Ain't no sympathy when it sayes goodbye

No one even cried, we're one of a kind, one of a kind

Chorus:
Love let me stranded at the station
and the last train's gone by
What was once holy water,
tastes like bitter wine

Your love was my salvation,
it could always get me high
You take the bag of holy water,
now all that's left is bitter wine
