This is the song in a lower key, but the chords are more accurate to the melody than other versions. Standard Tuning Intro: C (x2) [Verse 1]: C2 Little girls don't know how to be sweet girls. G Mama didn't teach me. C2 Little boys don't know how to treat little girls. G Daddy didn't show me. C
Face down, on top of your bed G Oh why did I give it up to you? C2 Is this how I shoot myself up high, G just high enough to get through? Em Again, for false affection. C Again, we break down inside. [Chorus]: C Love, save the empty-ay. C Love, save the empty-ay, G And save me. [Verse 2]: C2 Sad boy, you stare up at the sky G when no one's looking back at you. C2 You wear your every last disguise. G You're flying, then you fall through. Em Again, for false attention. C Again, you're breaking inside. [Chorus]: C Love, save the empty-ay. C Love, save the empty-ay. G Save me. C Love, save the empty-ay. C Love, save the empty-ay. [Bridge]: Am Scars feel like knives, C they tell us what we're fighting. Am Storm, wait outside. C Oh, love, hold us together. [Chorus]: C Love, save the empty-ay. C Love, save the empty-ay. C Love, save the empty. C Love, save the empty. C Save me. C And save me. C (x2)
