Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E) Verse 1: C E There were so many things that I should have said Am F When I finally said good-bye C But the gist of things to come Dm Showed me nothing could be done G C To save a love that already died Verse 2: C E And, yet, still it breaks my heart to have to walk away Am F In the middle of such staggering pain C I would like to press you close Dm And offer you my coat G C As shelter from the gathering rain
Pre-Chorus: E But that would just compound the hurt Am That comes with such moments F G And make it all more difficult to bear Chorus: C E And so I'll walk away and leave you alone Am F To seek comfort from the things you know are real C But don't let my silence hide Dm The tenderness inside G C That memories of you will make me feel Chorus: C E And so I'll walk away and leave you alone Am F To seek comfort from the things you know are real C But don't let my silence hide Dm The tenderness inside G C That memories of you will make me feel Outro: C Please don't let my silence hide Dm The tenderness inside G C That memories of you will make me feel
