C majorC         G+G
I could walk out, but I won't,
DmDm       A minorAm
In my mind I am in your arms.
C majorC          G+G
I wish someone would take my place,
DmDm          A minorAm
Can't face heaven all heavenfaced.
C majorC          G+G
No one's careful all the time,
DmDm         A minorAm
If you lose me, I'm gonna die.

Hit the ceiling, then you fall,

I could walk out, but I won't,
DmDm       A minorAm
In my mind I am in your arms.

I wish someone would take my place,

Can't face heaven all heavenfaced.
