[Intro 1]
[G][Gsus4][C][G][Gm]
[Bb][F][Eb][D][G][Em]

[Verse 1]
True love is [G]a rose behind [Am]glass
That's locked and kept [E]closed
Maybe just to me
[G]'Cause my heart's been attacked
[Bb]And shat[C]tered by t[F]ough
[Eb]love [D]bad [G]love

[Verse 2]
[Em]So I bought mine off the s[G]treet
True [Am]love, man, it just can't [E]be beat
I felt so [G]complete
Married to [Bb]heavenly [C]bod
[F]ies [Eb]above[D]
And each [Ab]night I'd look up
At a [Gm]bright [D]honey [Ebdim]moon[D]
[G]'Cause it

[Verse 3]
[Em]sure seemed
built to [G]last
And even [Am]after my honeymoon [E]passed
I kept [G]right with it, man
Like [Bb]a ghost to a [Am]house [F]it onc[C]e
[Eb]haunted
[D][G][D]

[Verse 4]
[Em]
And day after [G]day
I'd [Am]steal with my true love [E]away
To some [G]hideout we're left undisturbed
[Bb]We could do wh[F]at we wa[Eb]nted[D]
But I [Ab]started to feel [Eb]like a l[Cm]iar
[Gm]Saying I love [D]you[Ebdim][D]
[C]She [G]was

[Verse 5]
[C]madly in love or mad [Bb]mean
There was no in [Ab]between it raised my [D]alarm[G]
I [C]found I can't make [Bb]a stand
I'm her hired [Ab]hand i have
to do harm
[D][G][D]

[Verse 6]
[Em]
One day I got sick
[G]She pla[Am]yed me a nasty old tri[E]ck
[G]Said, "I need cigarettes"
[Bb]Walked 'round [F]the block
caught [Eb]a cab[D][G][D]
[Em]Stayed gone for too long[G]
My [Am]love had gotten so [E]strong
Just [G]to try being back on my [Bb]own
I had to [F]go to re[Eb]hab
[D]

[Verse 7]
[C]
All I [Bb]need is a safe place [Ab]to bleed
Is this where it's [D]at?[C]
Half of no [Bb]chance
Steps in a dance
[Ab]Rest of my life spent in com[D]bat
Now [G]I'm [D]the

[Verse 8]
[Em]king of the [G]ward
'Cause I'm [C]good and I swallow
my sword
And puke it [G]out for the doctor
[Bb]To write me [Am]a new [F]pre[Eb] scription
[D]Tra[G]nqu[D]il [Em]as a dove[G]
[Am]People that have lost their true [E]love
They [G]all seem [Bb]to fit [Am]the same
descrip[Eb]tion[D]

[Verse 9]
I feel [Ab]cold, useless [Gm]and old
I wish I was no [D]one[Ebdim][D]

[Interlude 1]
[G]

[Verse 10]
[C]Take [Cm]me up,
[G]my Lord [C]take [Cm]me up t[C]oday[G]
[Cm]Take [C]me [Cm]out of this plac[G]e[G]
[Cm]Take [C]me up with you
