[Intro] CEmD
[Verse] C No more barricades, slowly diffusing EmD I'll be leaving now, nobody's losing C If you could play a part, stay in resistance EmD Every fault would fade into the distance
[Chorus] C Run if you like GD All of the things that you left behind C Hold me down GD You can't deny and I can't deny C Open your eyes GD I'll look away and you come around C To build your words GD High enough to carry you over Am And I never would've given you up (Never would've given you up, you up) Em If you only hadn't given me up (Only hadn't given me up, me up) Am Then I never would've given you up (Never would've given you up, you up) EmD If you only hadn't given me up (Only hadn't given me up, me up)
[Pre-chorus] C No more clarity, only confusion EmD Every focused thought, just an illusion C If I could see you now, if you would listen EmD Every fault would fade into the distance
[Chorus] C Run if you like GD All of the things that you left behind C Hold me down GD You can't deny and I can't deny C Open your eyes GD I'll look away and you come around C To build your words GD High enough to carry you over Am And I never would've given you up (Never would've given you up, you up) Em If you only hadn't given me up (Only hadn't given me up, me up) Am Then I never would've given you up (Never would've given you up, you up) EmD If you only hadn't given me up (Only hadn't given me up, me up)
[pre-chorus] CEmD And you are CEmD If I only hadn't given you up CEm If you only hadn't given me up D And you are CEm If I only hadn't given you up D Losin' my breath and leaving' the rest
[Chorus] C Run if you like GD All of the things that you left behind C Hold me down GD You can't deny and I can't deny C Open your eyes GD I'll look away and you come around C To build your words GD High enough to carry you over Am And I never would've given you up (Never would've given you up, you up) Em If you only hadn't given me up (Only hadn't given me up, me up) Am Then I never would've given you up (Never would've given you up, you up) EmD If you only hadn't given me up (Only hadn't given me up, me up) Am Then I never would've given you up (Never would've given you up, you up) Em If you only hadn't given me up (Only hadn't given me up, me up) Am Then I never would've given you up (Never would've given you up, you up) EmD If you only hadn't given me up (Only hadn't given me up, me up)
