Ed Sheeran - Save Myself

C G
i gave all my oxygen
Am F
to people that could breath
C G
i gave away my money and
Am F
now we don’t even speak
C G
i drove miles and miles
Am G F
but would you do the same for me?
C G C
hoo . . ooo . . nestly

C G
offered off my shoulder just
Am F
for you to cry upon
C G
gave you constant shelter and
Am F
a bed to keep you warm
C G
they gave me the heartache
Am G F
and in return i gave a song
C G C
its goes o . . ooon and on

( chorus )
F C
life can get you down
G C
so i just numb the way it feels
F C
i drown it with a drink
G G/B Am
and out of date prescription pills
F G
and all the ones that love me
Am G F
they just left me on the shelf
D7
my farewell
Dm7
so before i save someone else
Dm7 C/E F G/B C
i’ve got to . . save myself

C G
i gave you all my energy
Am F
and i took away your pain
C
’cause human beings are
G Am F
destined to radiate or dream
C G
what line do we stand upon
Am G F
’cause from here it looks the same?
C G C
and only scars remain

( chorus )
F C
life can get you down
G C
so i just numb the way it feels
F C
i drown it with a drink
G G/B Am
and out of date prescription pills
F G
and all the ones that love me
Am G F
they just left me on the shelf
D7
my farewell
Dm7
so before i save someone else
Dm7 C/E F G/B C
i’ve got to . . save myself

Am
but if i don’t ,
F
then i’ll go back
C
to where i’m rescuing a stranger
G
just because . .
Am
they needed saving just like that
F
oh , i’m here again
C
between the devil and the danger
G
but i guess it’s just my nature
F
my dad was wrong
G
’cause i’m not like my mum
Am
’cause she’d just smile
G F
and i’m complaining in a song
D7
but it helps
Dm7
so before i save someone else
Dm7 C/E F G/B C
i’ve got to . . save myself

( chorus )
F C
life can get you down
G C
so i just numb the way it feels
F C
i drown it with a drink
G G/B Am
and out of date prescription pills
F G
and all the ones that love me
Am G F
they just left me on the shelf
D7
my farewell
Dm7
so before i save someone else ,
Dm7 C/E F G/B C
i’ve got to . . save myself
Dm7
and before i blame someone else ,
Dm7 C/E F G/B C
i’ve got to . . save myself
Dm7
and before i love someone else ,
Dm7 C/E F G/B C
i’ve got to . . love myself
