Pre>

***intro:

Em d/f# g c

Em d c g



*** verse: 1

Em d/f# g c

We’ve known her ever since she was a kid

Em d c g

She was the kind of girl who repeats her mistakes

Em d/f# g c

Her parents never minded what she did

Em d c g

She was a fallen angel with dirt on her face

Am g/b c d

But past a certain point she stayed behind

Am g/b c d

The two of us could never read her mind

Am g/b c d

The million ways she had of killing time



*** chorus:

Em d c

So we just gave up

Em d c

Yeah we just gave up

Em d

’cause sometimes, you know

C g

There’s limits to love

C g c g



*** verse 2:

We’d get impatient with her now and then em d/f# g c

Oh, she’d smile and say, `now you’re not being nice.’ em d c g

I guess her definition of a friend em d/f# g c

Was someone long on love, and short on advice em d c g

We gave her money but the money’s bad am g/b c d

She took the dollars and just tore them in half am g/b c d

We got so angry, we just had to laugh am g/b c d



*** chorus:

But we still gave up em d c

Yeah we still gave up em d c

’cause sometimes, you know em d

There’s limits to love c g | c g | c g



*** instrumental:



** verse 3:

She’ll get in trouble but she will scrape through em d/f# g c

Oh, she’s the kind of girl who can always find help em d c g

I’d say she’s stupid, but it’d be untrue em d/f# g c

Oh, you’ve got to be smart if you’re fooling yourself em d c g

We tried to love her, but our love unwound am g/b c d

(so our love was weak)

We talked about her when she wasn’t around am g/b c d

(so our talk was cheap)

And still we felt that we were letting her down am g/b c d



*** chorus:

’cause we just gave up em d c

Yeah we just gave up em d c

’cause sometimes, you know em d

There’s limits to love c g



Sometimes you know em d

There’s limits to love c g
