D                A
Take pictures out of all the frames
             F#m                  E
Pack up your love with all your things
            D                A
See if it helps, give it a week
               F#m                 E
I bet no one else gets you like me


[Pre-Chorus]
          D                                  A
'Cause I know you think you're better off without me now
       F#m                                  E
Sayin' all you need is space, baby, we can work this out


[Chorus]
                    D                    A
But don't throw it away this time, just take a little time to think
               F#m                     E
Don't throw it away, it's fine, just don't forget to think of me
                D                   A
Don't throw it away, your mind is messin' with your head again
            F#m                                                      E
Instead of walkin' away you should give it a break, tell me what to say
                 D
Don't throw it away


[Verse 2]
                 D                  A
Don't save the words 'til it's too late
           F#m              E
I know it hurts and that's okay
             D           A
If it's too much to open up, then give it time
  F#m                            E
I see it in your eyes so let's sleep on it tonight


[Pre-Chorus]
          D                                  A
'Cause I know you think you're better off without me now
       F#m                                  E
Sayin' all you need is space, baby, we can work this out


[Chorus]
                    D                    A
But don't throw it away this time, just take a little time to think
               F#m                     E
Don't throw it away, it's fine, just don't forget to think of me
                D                   A
Don't throw it away, your mind is messin' with your head again
            F#m                                                      E
Instead of walkin' away you should give it a break, tell me what to say
                 D
Don't throw it away
