[Intro]
G Dsus4/F# Em7 G Dsus4/F#
 
[Verse 1]
Em7         Cadd9                G Dsus4/F#
I’m damaged goods, I'm complicated
Em7       Cadd9                D
I sure do know how to tell a lie
Em7             Cadd9              G
Some people say I ain't worth saving
Dsus4/F#                     Em7
Sometimes I think they’re right
 
Cadd9  G  Dsus4/F#
 
 
[Verse 2]
Em7           Cadd9         G  Dsus4/F#
It ain’t no secret, I can say it
Em7          Cadd9            D
I get it wrong most of the time
Em7             Cadd9           G
But looking at you right now baby,
     Dsus4/F#                 Em7
you’re the one thing I got right
 
Cadd9  G  Dsus4/F#
 
 
[Chorus]
G                                 Dsus4/F#
Someone else would have walked away,
Em7
Someone else would have never stayed
Cadd9                                           D
Sure as hell someone else would have left me a long, long time ago.. Oh oh
G                                    Dsus4/F#
Someone else would have called my bluff,
Em7
Saying I ain’t even worth their love,
Cadd9                                     D
No one else could have loved me like you do
                          G  Dsus4/F#
Thank god my someone’s you
 
 
[Verse 3]
Em7         Cadd9                G  Dsus4/F#
I wasn’t perfect, you were patient
Em7          Cadd9                  D
I didn’t know what you were waiting for
Em7            Cadd9            G
I swear I must have found an angel,
Dsus4/F#           Em7
Sent from heaven’s door
 
Cadd9  G  Dsus4/F#
 
 
[Chorus]
G                                 Dsus4/F#
Someone else would have walked away,
Em7
Someone else would have never stayed
Cadd9                                           D
Sure as hell someone else would have left me a long, long time ago.. Oh oh
G                                    Dsus4/F#
Someone else would have called my bluff,
Em7
Saying I ain’t even worth their love,
Cadd9                                     D
No one else could have loved me like you do.

Thank God my someone’s you.

Someone else would have walked away,

Someone else would have never stayed

Not sure if you all are basing this off of a live version, but the album version is standard tuning with capo at 2nd fret.

Chords are good, thanks! A couple of lyrical mistakes in case you want them changed. "I sure do know how to tell a lie" "Saying I ain't even worth their love" "I swear I must've found an angel" Other than that, solid stuff and thanks for posting!

It's not really F#m (chord) as it is a transition walk-up or down passing note (F#). It's more like G/F# keeping the ring and pinky fingers stationary when going between the G and Em7 chords. Otherwise good tab
