🎸 Intro:
Fm Bb Eb Ab x2

🎸 Verse 1:
Eb                 Bb
Now we reached the end
  Cm          Ab
I ran the marathon
    Eb            Bb
The road had many bends
       Fm            Cm
But we knew that all along
  Eb               Bb
I think it made me stronger
    Fm             Ab
But I would rather not
  Eb           Bb                Ab
Betray myself, just to keep your love at any cost

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
    Fm        Ab               Cm
And it's most tempting to give in
         Bb              Fm
When you hear the firin' shots
            Ab                 Cm
When you're steps from winning back
        Bb            Fm     (Ab) Cm        Bb
All the happiness you lo-o-o-ost, lo-o-o-o-ost
Fm     (Ab) Cm        Bb
Lo-o-o-ost, lo-o-o-o-ost

🎸 Chorus:
     Fm             Bb         Eb          Ab
With every careless action you let me slip away
   Fm                 Bb          Eb            Ab
If you just bought me flowers, maybe I would've stayed
    Fm                 Bb         Eb                Ab
You didn't think I was serious, I guess you felt so safe
   Fm                 Bb          Eb            Ab
If you just bought mе flowers, maybe I would've stayеd

Post-🎸 Chorus:
   Eb   Bb       Ab
Maybe I would've stayed
   Eb   Bb       Ab
Maybe I would've stayed

🎸 Verse 2:
    Eb               Bb
The seeds we planted grew
    Cm             Ab
But not like roses do
   Eb                 Bb
We had the thorns and leaves
        Fm               Cm
But the buds, they never bloomed
    Eb            Bb
And now my future gleams
     Fm              Ab
With colors bold and bright
     Eb                      Bb
In a home that's filled with love and hope
      Ab
And a life that just feels right

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
    Fm        (Ab)             Cm
And it's most tempting to give in
            Bb            Fm
When you're almost at the top
            (Ab)               Cm
When you're steps from winning back
        Bb            Fm     (Ab) Cm       Bb
All the happiness you lo-o-o-ost, lo-o-o-o-ost
Fm     (Ab) Cm       Bb
Lo-o-o-ost, lo-o-o-o-ost

   Eb   Bb       Ab
Maybe I would've stayed
   Eb   Bb       Ab
Maybe I would've stayed
  Eb            Bb      Ab
I wouldn't have walked away
  Eb            Bb      Ab
I wouldn't have walked away

🎸 Bridge:
    Fm
And there's no heartbreak left to feel
   Cm              Bb
It happened years ago
  Fm
After you made your choices
     Cm            Bb
I melted away like snow
       Fm             Ab
'Cause you like lying to yourself
    Cm             Bb
And now I'll never know
     Fm
What parts of your love were for real
    Cm                  Bb
And what parts were for show

🎸 Chorus:
     Fm             Bb         Eb          Ab

I wouldn't have walked away
