Fmaj7 Dm
πΈ Verse 1:
Fmaj7 Dm
I'm clinging onto you so tight
I know it hurts just a little
Fmaj7 Dm
You say, "We will be alright", but I have my doubts
Gm7 C
But it's better to be holding you while you pass through
Gm7 Csus4 C
Than not holding you at all
πΈ Verse 2:
Fmaj7 Dm
An elephant is in the room, don't look, and don't try to feed it
Fmaj7 Dm N.C.
You always want me on your terms, you can't have your cake and eat it
πΈ Chorus:
Bb F
I don't want you to go without me
Bb Bbm Am7 Dsus4 D
But when you do, won't you put yourself in my shoes?
Bb
'Cause I know this feeling
C
I'm so tired of being left behind
πΈ Post-Chorus:
Fmaj7 Dm
Left behind, left behind
Fmaj7 Dm
Everytime
πΈ Verse 3:
Fmaj7 Dm
Awake, in bed, in my own head, one day rolls into another
Fmaj7 Dm
You look like you've been having fun, at least that's what I told my mother
Fmaj7
Maybe it's better to not have someone at all
Dm
Then no one else can let you down when they forget to call
Fmaj7
And I keep having this weird dream where you're going off to war
Dm
And I'm just left there in the kitchen, staring at the door
C
I think I'm done with this
Dm
'Cause if you've got no one, at least you've got no one to miss
πΈ Pre-Chorus:
N.C. Gm7 C
Is it better to be holdin' you while you pass through
Gm7 Csus4 C
Or not holdin' you at all?
πΈ Chorus:
Bb F
I don't want you to go without me
Bb Bbm Am7 Dsus4 D
But when you do, won't you put yourself in my shoes?
Bb C Am
Because I know this feeling
I'm so tired of dreamin'
Bb
That you're not leavin'
C
Oh
I'm so tired of being left behind
πΈ Outro:
Fmaj7 Dm
Left behind, left behind
Fmaj7 Dm
Everytime, left behind
