D G
D
It was only for a fight
G
That I asked you to come in
A
But you brought me tumblin' down
D
And the walls came caving in
D
Won't you help me dry my tears
G
Help me roll away the years
A
Then perhaps I will forgive you
D
And the hurt will disappear
G
But in a fit of blind arrogance
A Asus4
You stood up and walked away

I'll be waiting for the day

Come on back to me
D Bm D
You oh come back to me
A G D G
D
So forget the long goodbye
G
You never really tried
A
Threw the keys down on the table
D
You've got your sense of pride
D
Then you had to tell the world
G
Your story must be heard
A
Slammed the door behind you
D
Without a single word
G
But in a fit of blind arrogance
A
You stood up and walked away
D
The day that you
