[Verse I]
G                            D                        A
 People like you always want back the love they gave away
                           Bm                  A             G
And people like me wanna believe you when you say you've changed
                          D
The more I think about it now
              A
The less I know
                       Bm       A          G
All I know is that you drove us off the road

[Chorus]
 G
Stay
                          D
Hey, all you had to do was stay
                           A
had me in the palm of your hand
                            Bm                 A
Then, why you had to go and lock me out when I let you in
 G                                D
Stay, hey, now you say you want it
                      A
But now it's just too late
                     Bm                A
Well could've been easy all you had to do was stay
G
 All you had to do was stay
D
 All you had to do was stay
A
 All you had to do was stay
Bm              A          G
 All you had to do was stay

[Verse II]
G
 Here you are now
           D
Calling me up
                         A
But I don't know what to say
                         Bm            A
I've been picking up the pieces of the mess you made
G                            D                          A
 People like you always want back the love they pushed aside
                               Bm
But people like me are gone forever
         A          G
When you say goodbye

[Chorus]
 G

Then, why you had to go and lock me out when I let you in
 G                                D
Stay, hey, now you say you want it
                      A
But now it's just too late
                     Bm                A
