I give up by Lynn Miles - from the album Unravel ?capo on 3rd fret
I have d[Em]runk no well where the [D]water was bitter and col[Em]d
I have n[Em]umbed all my senses and [D]cried for somebody to h[Em]old
I have lied to m[C]yself I have lived in re[B7]gret
and I kn[Em]ow that I ain't seen the end of [C]it yet
but I kn[G]ow there's a light up ah[D]ead and it's waiting fo[G]r me
Chorus:
[G]I give u[C]p
cut me d[G]own
give me [D]water give me love give me [G]rest
I give u[C]p
cut me d[G]own
go ahead[D] go ahead
I confes[G]s
I have wasted my time I have lost what I cherished the most
The house is on fire and the closets are filled with my ghost
I have lied to my self I have lived in the rain
and I know that it's bound to start pouring again
but I know that there's a light up ahead waiting for me
I give up
cut me down
give me water give me love give me rest
I give up
cut me down
go ahead go ahead
I confess
I wasted[Em] my time, I wasted my te[D]ars
I ran un[G]til I thought the coast was clea[C]r
but it n[G]ever was now I'l[D]l surrender my pain an[G]d my tears
I give up
cut me down
give me water give me love give me rest
I give up
cut me down
go ahead go ahead
I confess
I have d[Em]runk no well where the [D]water was bitter and col[Em]d
I have n[Em]umbed all my senses and [D]cried for somebody to h[Em]old
