Verse 1:
G                           Em             C
Hold me... let me dry those tears for you
       G                          Em             C
Be the healer... of your heart he broke in two
        G                                     Em           C
I wanna hold you close... but somethin' tells me to wait
      G                                                   Em         C
Is it too soon to touch... to reach for the love that you hide away
Em                              D
Talk to me... tell me with your eyes
Em                                      C           D
What did he do... to make you feel this way inside

Chorus:
Em       G         D        C
   Empty words and promises made
Am     C        G
   I'm not that way
Em      G         D         C
   Come to me and don't be afraid
Am     C
   I'm not that way

Verse 2:
G                          Em       C
Silence... was meant to be broken
     G                                                     Em        C
Like waves on the shore... let your tears wash away these emotions
        Em                                    D
I can't change the world... I can change your mind

     Em                                  C         D
I'll always be here... for you until you realize

Chorus 2:
Em       G         D        C
   Empty words and promises made
Am     C        G
   I'm not that way
Em    G              D          C
   Broken trust... a failure in faith
Am     C        D
   I'm not that way
Am     C        G
   I'm not that way

Bridge:
      C                                D
Cause life's too short for waistin'... waistin' precious time
   Em                                 G
If time is what you need baby... I'll give you all of mine
    C                                  Am
One day you're gonna look at me... and love is what you'll find

Chorus 3:
Em    G            D        C
   Empty words and promises made
Am     C        G
   I'm not that way
Em      G        D               C
   Come to me... bring back your faith
Am       C   D
   Don't be afraid
Am     C        G
   I'm not that way

Outro:
G              C
  I'm not that way...
          G
I want to hold you... I want to hold you close
            C
