Em d/f# gc

Em d cg



*** verse: 1

Em d/f# g c

Weve 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 dc

Yeah we just gave up

Em d

cause sometimes, you know

C g

Theres limits to love

C g c g





*** verse 2:

Wed get impatient with her now and then em d/f# gc

Oh, shed smile and say, `now youre not being nice. em d cg

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

Was someone long on love, and short on advice em d cg

We gave her money but the moneys bad am g/bcd

She took the dollars and just tore them in half am g/bcd

We got so angry, we just had to laugh am g/bcd

But we still gave up em dc

Yeah we still gave up em dc

cause sometimes, you know em d

Theres limits to love cg| c g | c g

Shell get in trouble but she will scrape through em d/f# gc

Oh, shes the kind of girl who can always find helpem d cg

Id say shes stupid, but itd be untrue em d/f#g c

Oh, youve got to be smart if youre fooling yourself em d cg

We tried to love her, but our love unwound am g/bcd

We talked about her when she wasnt around am g/bcd

(so our talk was cheap)

And still we felt that we were letting her down am g/bcd
