[Verse 1]
Em G6 Asus2 Cmaj7
She walks in the room, in her mind she's far away
Em G6 Asus2 Cmaj7
I can see her emptiness, but I just don't feel her pain
Em D6+9 Asus2 Cmaj7
The love is gone, the only thing she was living for
Asus2 Bsus4
Mister I'll never leave you walked right out the door, oh
[Verse 2]
Em G6 Asus2 Cmaj7
It's killing me inside, the way I've seen her change
Em G6 Asus2 Cmaj7
She writes her life story, but she can't turn the page
Em D6+9 Asus2 Cmaj7
I hold her hand, try to take her but she pulls away
Asus2 Bsus4
Shades go down, lights go out, there's nothing left to say so I'm singing
[Chorus]
Em G6 Asus2 Cmaj7
I-I-I-I-I want it all but I take just a little
Em G6 Asus2 Cmaj7
I-I-I-I-I feel her touch then I need some more
Em G6 Asus2 Cmaj7
We get hi-i-i-i-igh just to try and relieve the pain
Asus2 Bsus4
But a voice inside reminds me there must be a better way, oh
[Verse 3]
Em G6 Asus2 Cmaj7
So I leave the room, 'bout halfway down the hall
Em G6 Asus2 Cmaj7
I turn around, she screams out: what, you don't believe in love
Em D6+9 Asus2 Cmaj7
Said I'll never be who I was when I was seventeen
Asus2 Bsus4
'Cause every time I walk away, I leave a piece of me so I'm singing
[Chorus]
Em G6 Asus2 Cmaj7
I-I-I-I-I want it all but I take just a little
Em G6 Asus2 Cmaj7
I-I-I-I-I feel her touch then I need some more
Em G6 Asus2 Cmaj7
We get hi-i-i-i-igh just to try and relieve the pain
Asus2 Bsus4
But a voice inside reminds me there must be a better way, oh
[Bridge]
Cmaj7 D6+9 Em Bsus4
Now I understand what they were trying to say
Cmaj7 D6+9 Em Bsus4
Life goes by too fast and people change
Cmaj7 D6+9 Em D6+9
But she just wants to be who she always was
Asus2 Bsus4
But you can't change a single thing, you might as well look up and sing
[Chorus]
Em G6 Asus2 Cmaj7
I, I take just a little
Em G6 Asus2 Cmaj7
I then I need some more
Em G6 Asus2 Cmaj7
We get high to relieve the pain
Asus2 Cmaj7 D6+9
But there is a voice inside me saying you'd better walk, you'd better walk away
[Chorus]
Em G6 Asus2 Cmaj7
(I-I-I-I-I) and I take just a little
Em G6 Asus2 Cmaj7
(I-I-I-I-I) oh to relieve the pain
Em G6 Asus2 Cmaj7
We get hi-i-i-i-igh just to try and relieve the pain
Asus2 Bsus4 Em
But a voice inside reminds me there must be, be a better way
