Verse 1:
       A       E         F#m              D
I gave all my oxygen to people that could breath
    A          E            F#m             D
I gave away my money and now we don't even speak
  A               E                   F#m      E      D
I drove miles and miles, but would you do the same for me?
    A E  A
Oh, honestly?
A               E               F#m          D
Offered off my shoulder just for you to cry upon
A                 E             F#m              D
Gave you constant shelter and a bed to keep you warm
     A              E             F#m        E     D 
They gave me the heartache and in return I gave a song
        A E    A
Its goes on and on 

Chorus:
D                 A             E             F#m
Life can get you down so I just numb the way it feels
  D               A                E                F#m
I drown it with a drink and out of date prescription pills
   D                    E               F#m      E      D
And all the ones that love me they just left me on the shelf
    B
My farewell
          Bm                      Bm   A E    D A
So before I save someone else, I've got to save myself

Verse 2:  
  A               E            F#m            D
I gave you all my energy and I took away your pain
        A               E           F#m        D
'Cause human beings are destined to radiate or dream
 A              E                      F#m      E      D
What line do we stand upon 'cause from here it looks the same?
    A   E      A
And only scars remain

Chorus:
D                 A             E             F#m
Life can get you down so I just numb the way it feels
  D               A                E                F#m
I drown it with a drink and out of date prescription pills
   D                    E               F#m      E      D
And all the ones that love me they just left me on the shelf
    B
My farewell
     E    Bm                    Bm    A D     E A
So before I save someone else, I've got to save myself

Bridge:
        F#m
But if don't
             D
Then I'll go back
                A
To where I'm rescuing a stranger
        E                                  F#m
Just because they needed saving just like that
             D
Oh, I'm here again
              A
Between the devil and the danger
       E
But I guess it's just my nature
   A      D
My dad was wrong
                        E
'Cause I'm not like my mum
                   F#m              E             D
'Cause she'd just smile and I'm complaining in a song
        B
But it helps
    A        Bm
So before I save someone else
      Bm A D     E A
I've got to save myself

Chorus:
D                 A             E             F#m
Life can get you down so I just numb the way it feels
  D               A                E                F#m
I drown it with a drink and out of date prescription pills
   D                    E               F#m      E      D
And all the ones that love me they just left me on the shelf
    B
My farewell
     E    Bm                    Bm    A D     E A
So before I save someone else, I've got to save myself
    A        Bm                  Bm    A D     E A
And before I blame someone else, I've got to save myself
     A       Bm                     Bm   A D   E      A
And before I love someone else, I've got to love myself
