To stand in my way
FF
Cause we both know
G+G
I can't stop myself
Instrumental part: G+G D MajorD E minorEm FF x2
(I have no idea how this part is really played in the recording so I just put that
chord progression instead)
A minorAm D MajorD
In the early mornings when I'm up before dawn
A minorAm D MajorD
You say "why don't you stay" but you keep sleeping on
G+G FF E MajorE
Maybe you're just used to me being gone
A minorAm D MajorD
Cause if you know that I don't want to go
G+G D MajorD E minorEm
So why don't you try
FF
When it's time to go
G+G D MajorD
Why don't you try
E minorEm
To stand in my way
FF
Cause we both know
G+G
I can't stop myself
D MajorD
Why don't you
E minorEm
Why don't you try
FF
When it's time to go, oh
G+G
Cause I don't want to have to go
D MajorD
And be the one to leave you holding on alone
E minorEm
But this, this is my goodbye
FF
So why don't you try
G+G D MajorD E minorEm FF x2
