Verse 1:
DmDm        Dsus4Dsus4
 Made myself a prisoner
A minorAm         Am9Am9
 I locked myself away
DmDm          Dsus4Dsus4
 Can't remember the last time
A minorAm          Am9Am9
 I saw the light of day
DmDm         Dsus4Dsus4
 Don't want to face life
A minorAm          Am9Am9
 Feel I've been betrayed
DmDm       Dsus4Dsus4
 I want you tell me
A minorAm            Am9Am9
 Where our love went astray

Pre-Chorus:
       Bb majorBb      FF
So can't you wait one more minute
        Bb majorBb      FF
Why can't you wait one more day
        Eb MajorEb
Let's get it straight
        DmDm
Because it's a big mistake
      A minorAm
We better think about it


Chorus:

I don't want to break it up

I only want to make it up tonight

Verse 2:
DmDm            Dsus4Dsus4
 You say you've thought about it
A minorAm         Am9Am9
 But you sound so cold
DmDm           Dsus4Dsus4
 You make it look like our love
A minorAm         Am9Am9
 Can be bought or sold
DmDm      Dsus4Dsus4
 You won't listen
A minorAm           Am9Am9
 You say it's way too late
DmDm          Dsus4Dsus4
 That something is missing
A minorAm            Am9Am9
 And now you just can't wait

 And I ask myself

What's wrong with me?
          DmDm
How could I be so blind?

I know she tried to give me everything
