Verse 1

 
D Bm
Easy come, easy go, that’s just how you live
G A
Oh, take, take, take it all but you never give
D Bm
Should’ve known you was trouble from the first kiss
G A
Had your eyes wide open, why were they open?
 

Pre-Chorus

 
G A
Gave you all I had and you tossed it in the trash
G A
You tossed it in the trash, you did
G A
To give me all your love is all I ever asked
G A
‘Cause what you don’t understand is…
 

Chorus

 
D Bm
I’d catch a grenade for ya
G A
Throw my hand on a blade for ya
D Bm
I’d jump in front of a train for ya
G A
You know I’d do anything for ya
D Bm
I would go through all this pain
G A
Take a bullet straight through my brain
D Bm
Yes, I would die for you, baby
G
But you won’t do the same
 

Verse 2

 
D Bm
Black, black, black and blue, beat me ’til I’m numb
G A
Tell the devil I said “hey” when you get back to where you’re from
D Bm
Mad woman, bad woman, that’s just what you are
G A
Yeah, you’ll smile in my face then rip the brakes out my car
 

Pre-Chorus

 
G A
Gave you all I had and you tossed it in the trash
G A
You tossed it in the trash, yes you did
G A
To give me all your love is all I ever asked
G A
‘Cause what you don’t understand is…
 

Chorus

 
D Bm
I’d catch a grenade for ya
G A
Throw my hand on a blade for ya
D Bm
I’d jump in front of a train for ya

You know I’d do anything for ya
D Bm
I would go through all this pain
G A
Take a bullet straight through my brain
D Bm
Yes, I would die for you, baby
G
But you won’t do the same
 

Bridge

 
G A
If my body was on fire
D Bm
You’d watch me burn down in flames
G A
You said you loved me, you’re a liar
D
‘Cause you never, ever, ever did, baby…
 

Chorus

 
D Bm
But darling, I’d still catch a grenade for ya
G A
Throw my hand on a blade for ya
D Bm
I’d jump in front of a train for ya
G A
You know I’d do anything for ya
D Bm
I would go through all this pain
G A
Take a bullet straight through my brain

G
But you won’t do the same
 

Outro

No, you won’t do the same
G A
You wouldn’t do the same
D Bm
Ooh, you’ll never do the same
G
No, no, no, no…
