[Verse 1]
Go ahead just [Em]leave,
can't hold you, [C]you're free
You take all these [D]things,
if they [Bm]mean so much to you
I gave you [Em]your dreams,
'cause you meant [C]the world
So did I [D]deserve to be
left here [Bm]hurt
You think I [Em]don't know
you're out of control
[C]I ended up finding[D] all of
[Bm]this from my boys
Girl, [Em]you're stone cold,
you say [C]it ain't so,
You already [D]know I'm not
attached to [Bm]material

[Verse 2]
I'd give it all [Em]up but I'm
takin' back my [C]love
I'm takin' back my [D]love,

I've given you too [Em]much but I'm
takin' back my [C]love
I'm takin' back my [D]love,
my love, my [Bm]love, my love
My [Em]love
[C]

[Verse 3]
[D]
[Bm]Yeah
What did [Em]I do but give love to [C]you
I'm just con[D]fused as I stand
here [Bm]and look at you
From head [Em]to feet, all that's [C]not me
Go 'head, keep the key[D]s,
that's not what [Bm]I need from you
You think that [Em]you know (I do), you've
made yourself [C]cold (oh yeah)
How could you [D]believe them over me,
I'm [Bm]your girl
You're out [Em]of control (so what?), how could
you let [C]go (oh yeah)
Don't [D]you know I'm not
attached to [Bm]material

[Verse 4]
I'd give it all [Em]up but I'm
takin' back my [C]love
