[Verse 1]
E
Happiness, it's been no friend to me
    C#m7                Bsus4                 A
But forever after ain't what it's all cracked up to be
      E
Yeah, i had a taste, you were my fantasy
      C#m7           Bsus4            A
But I almost lost my faith when I hit reality
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
E               B       E               B
I don't need no guru to tell me what to do
D                              A
When you're feeling like a headline on
D           A
Yesterday's news
     D   A    D   A    D
Come on, come on, come on
 
 
[Chorus]
D                         E
Give me something for the pain
A                         Bsus4
Give me something for the blues
                          C#m7
Give me something for the pain when
                 A                          B
I feel i've been dangling from a hang-man's noose
                         E
Give me shelter from the rain
A                       Bsus4
Give me something I can use
          A
To get me through the night
        Bsus4
Make me feel all right
    E          A
Something like you
     D   A    D   A    D
Come on, come on, come on
 
 
[Verse 2]
E
Loneliness has found a home in me
   C#m7                Bsus4       A
My suitcase and guitar are my only family
              E
I've tried to need someone, like they needed me
       C#m7         Bsus4            A
Well I opened up my heart, but all i did was bleed
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
E               B       E          B
I don't need no lover, just to get screwed
D                                 A        D        A
They don't make a bandage, that's going to cover my bruise
     D   A    D   A    D
Come on, come on, come on
 
 
[Chorus]
D                         E
Give me something for the pain
A                         Bsus4
Give me something for the blues
                          C#m7
Give me something for the pain when
                 A                          B
I feel i've been dangling from a hang-man's noose
                         E
Give me shelter from the rain
A                       Bsus4
Give me something I can use
          A
To get me through the night
        Bsus4
Make me feel all right
    E          A
Something like you

[Bridge]
E
Pull me under (help i'm falling)
E
Through my veins
E
To a place
E
Where i feel no pain
C#m           B
Be the pillow under my head (night is calling)
A
Cover me when i'm in your bed
E
Take me higher than i've ever been(feels like i'm flying)
E
Take me down and back again
C#m               B
Come to me, be my disguise (christ i'm dying)
A
Open your coat, let me crawl inside
     D   A    D   A    D
Come on, come on, come on
     D   A    D   A    D
Come on, come on, come on

I feel i've been dangling from a hang-man's noose

Give me shelter from the rain
