GC It must have been a awfull hurt that someone did to you DG That buildt a wall around your heart that I can't break through C I can't erase I can't replace the bitterness with sweet D7G No I can't find my way behind your wall of memory GC If you want me why can't I keep you in love with me D7G You say your mine but I'm not blind I know you wanna be C And when your holding me no sweeter love could ever be D7G But when I'm gone somehow I can't keep you in love with me
SOLO
GC The worst mistake that you could make the surest way to lose D7G Would be to listen and believe the lies they tell to you C There is a way you can repay the one who let you down D7G Let me repair your broken heart don't leave it on the ground GC If you want me why can't I keep you in love with me D7G You say your mine and I'm not blind I know you wanna be C And when your holding me no sweeter love could ever be D7G But when I'm gone somehow I can't keep you in love with me AmD7G But when I'm gone somehow I can't keep you in love with me
