[Verse 1]
|A |A |E | E |
The roses in the window box have tilted to one side
|C#m7 |D |Bm7 | B |
Everything about this house was born to grow and die
|A |F#m |Bm7 Bm-C-C#|
Oh it doesn't seem a year ago to this very day .
|D |A |E |
... You said, “Sorry honey if I don’t change the pace
|D |D E |
I can't face another day.”
[Chorus 1]
|F#m7 |Bm7 |Esus E |Esus E |
And love lies bleeding in my hand oh it
|F#m7 |Bm7 |Esus E |Esus E |
Kills me to think of you with another man
|A |Bm7 |
I was playing rock 'n' roll and you were just a fan
|C#m7 |D | D7 |
But my guitar couldn't hold you so I split the band
|F#m7 |E |A |
Love lies bleeding in my hand
| C | G | F G | A | C | G | F G |
[Verse 2]
|A |A |E | E |
I wonder if those changes have left a scar on you
|C#m7 |D |Bm7 | B |
Like all the burning hoops of fire that you and I passed through
|A |F#m |Bm7 Bm-C-C#|
You're a bluebird on a telegraph line, I hope you’re happy now
|D |A |E |
... Oh with the wind of change comin’ down your way girl
|D |D E |
You'll make it back somehow
[Chorus 2]
|F#m7 |Bm7 |Esus E |Esus E |
And love lies bleeding in my hand oh it
|F#m7 |Bm7 |Esus E |Esus E |
Kills me to think of you with another man
|A |Bm7 |
I was playing rock 'n' roll and you were just a fan
|C#m7 |D | D7 |
But my guitar couldn't hold you so I split the band
|F#m7 |E |A |
Love lies bleeding in my hand
