I couldn't find any tab that sounded like it so I thought I'd have a go at making one...

##Verse 1##
Easy come, easy go, that's just how you live, oh,
Take, take, take it all, but you never give.
Should've known you was trouble, from the first kiss, you had your
eyes wide open. Why were they open?
##Verse 2##
Black, black, black and blue, beat me 'til I'm numb,
Tell the devil I said "hey" when you get back to where you're from.
Mad woman, bad woman, that's just what you are,
Yeah, you'll smile in my face then rip the brakes out my car
##Refrain##
Gave you all I had and you tossed it in the trash,
You tossed it in the trash, you did.
To give me all your love is all I ever asked,
'Cause what you don't understand is..
##Chorus##
I'd catch a grenade for ya
Throw my hand on a blade for ya
I'd jump in front of a train for ya
You know I'd do anything for ya
I would go through all of this pain,
Take a bullet straight through my brain!
Yes, I would die for ya, baby,
But you won't do the same.
##Bridge##
If my body was on fire,
Ooh, you'd watch me burn down in flames.
You said you loved me, you're a liar,
'cause you never, ever, ever did, baby!
But darling I'd still..
