1.    I guess this time you're really leaving,  I hear your suitcase say good-bye.
                                  Em      G                A          D
    And as my broken heart lies bleeding,   you say true love is suicide.
                              Em      G                   A               D
You say you cried a thousand rivers    and now you're swimming for the shore.
                                 Em    G                A          D -A 
    You left me drowning in my tears,   and you won't save me anymore.
                                        A7
    I'm praying to God, you'll give me one more chance girl.
D                            Bm
    I'll be there for you, these five words I swear to you,
            G                                 A       A7        D
when you breathe I wanna be the air for you, I'll be there for you.
                              Bm
I'd live and I'd die for you,    I'd steal the sun from the sky for you
  G                                A       A7        D
words can't say what love can do, I'll be there for you.
   D                           Em
2.  I know you we've had some good times,
G                    A                D
     now they have their own hiding place.
                               Em      G                A              A7
    Well, I can promise you tomorrow,     but I can't buy back yesterday.
                                     Em   G                   A          D-A-Bm
    And baby you know my hands are dirty,   but I wanted to be your valentine.
                                 Em              G          A              D-A-A7
I'll be the water when you get thirsty baby,when you get drunk I'll be the wine. 
            Bm-G-A-A7-D-Bm-G-A-A7                                   G      - A
+ REF.                         And I wasn't there when you where happy,
                                      D     A     Bm
    and I wasn't there when you were down, down, down.
                                G
    I didn't mean to miss your birthday, baby,
                                            A
    I wish I'd seen you blow those candles out.  + REFRAIN + REFRAIN .....
(Bon Jovi)
