|E |E |
|E |E |C#m |C#m |A |A |
I've known it from the very start, we’re a shot in the darkest dark, oh no, oh no
|E |E |C#m |C#m |A |A |
I’m unarmed, the waiting is a sadness, fading into madness, oh no, oh no, it won't stop
|A |E |B |B |
I'm standing on a tightrope, alone, I hold my breath a little bit
|A |E |B |B |
longer, halfway out the door, but it won't close, I’m holding out hope for you to
|A |E |B |B |
say, "Don't go”, I would stay forever if you
|A |E |B |B |
say, “Don't go"
|A |E |
Why'd you have to lead me on? Why'd you have to twist the
|B |B |
knife? Walk away and leave me bleeding, bleeding
|A |E |
Why'd you whisper in the dark, just to leave me in the
|B |B |
night? Now your silence has me screaming, screaming
|A |E |B |B |
(Say) Say, (Don’t) Don’t (Go) go”, I would stay forever if you
|A |E |B |B |
(Say) Say, (Don’t) Don’t (Go) go” (Say, say, say, say)
|E |E |C#m |C#m |A |A |
Now I'm pacing on shaky ground, strike a match, then you blow it out, oh no, oh no
|E |E |C#m |C#m |
It's not fair, ’cause you kiss me and it stops time, and I'm yours, but you're not
|A |A |
mine, oh no, oh no, you’re not
|A |E |B |B |
there, I'm standing on the sidewalk, alone, I wait for you to drive
|A |E |B |B |
by, I was trying to see the cards that you won't show, I’m about to fold unless you
|A |E |B |B |
(Say) Say, (Don’t) Don’t (Go) go”, I would stay forever if you
|A |E |B |B |
(Say) Say, (Don’t) Don’t (Go) go”, oh-ah
|A |E |
Why'd you have to lead me on? Why'd you have to twist the
|B |B |
knife? Walk away and leave me bleeding, bleeding
|A |E |
Why'd you whisper in the dark, just to leave me in the
|B |B |
night? Now your silence has me screaming, screaming
|A |E |B |B |
(Say) Say, (Don’t) Don’t (Go) go”, I would stay forever if you
|A |E |B |B |
(Say) Say, (Don’t) Don’t (Go) go” (Say, say, say, say)
|A |E |B |B |
Why'd you have to make me want you? Why'd you have to give me nothing
|A |E |B |B |
back? Why'd you have to make me love you? I said, "I love you," you say nothing
|N.C. |
back
|N.C. |E |
Why'd you have to lead me on? Why'd you have to twist the
|B |B |
knife? Walk away and leave me bleeding, bleeding
|A |E |
Why'd you whisper in the dark, just to leave me in the
|B |B |
night? Now your silence has me screaming, screaming
|A |E |B |B |
(Say) Say, (Don’t) Don’t (Go) go”, I would stay forever if you
|A |E |B |B |
(Say) Say, (Don’t) Don’t (Go) go” (Say, say, say, say)
|A |E |B |B |
But you won’t, but you won’t, but you won’t, I would stay forever if
|A |E |B |B |
you say, "Don't go"
|A |E |B |
But you won’t, but you won’t, but you won’t
