This is the way I play it on guitar and piano:

Am
I'm throwing away pictures
                                       C
that i never should have taken in the first place
Am
and it's cold in my apartment
Am
as i'm changing all the colors
         C                   G
from the brightest reds to grays
Am
well it's 3 o'clock on monday morning
                                  C     G
i'm just hoping you're not seeing his face
Am
i've been getting calls in these hotel rooms
Am                               C
long enough to know that it was him
                G
that took my place


                  Am             C
and i hope this makes you happy now
                  Am             C
that the flame we had is burning out
                           Am            C
and i hope you like your pictures facing down
                Am                   G
as even broken hearts may have their doubts


Am, C, Am, C

        Am
and i'm burning all the letters
          Am                                   C
hoping that i might forget her and her bad taste
          Am
that she left when she was leaving me
     Am                            C
a life of barely breathing as she walked
              G
out of this place


           Am
and you dropped the note and we changed key
          C
you changed yourself and i changed me
     Am                                  G
i really didn't see us singing through this
           Am
then you screamed the bridge

and i cried the verse
          C
and our chorus came out unrehearsed
         Am
and you smiled the whole way through it
          G
i guess maybe that's what's worse


                 Am
and i hope this makes you happy now
                  C
that the flame we had is burning out
                          Am
and i hope you like your pictures facing down
               Am                     G
as even broken hearts may have their doubts


                           Am
and i'm taking all your memories off the shelf
                          Am     C
and i don't need you or anybody else
                Am
so take a look at me

see what you want to see
              C
when you get home


         Am
take me home
                             C
i'd rather die than be with you

take me home
                             Am
you have a problem with the truth

take me home
                            C
because this happens every time
          G
i knew it would...
                Am
i knew it would...


          Am
take me home
                             C
i'd rather die than be with you

take me home
                               Am
you have a problem with the truth

take me home
                            C
because this happens every time
                C
and i knew it would...
              G
i knew it would...


                  Am                C
and i hope this makes you happy now
                  Am                C
that the flame we had is burning out
                          Am                C
and i hope you like your pictures facing down
                 Am                      G
as even broken hearts may have their doubts


                           Am                 C
and i'm taking all your memories off the shelf
                             Am    C
and i don't need you or anybody else
                   Am
so take a look at me

see what you want to see
               G
when you get home



there you go.  hope you liked it!
