Verse
CSay "leave"
F DmIf that's what you want from me
G CAnd I'll pack my bags and go
F DmDrive out past the county lines
GAnd you'll sleep alone
C F Dm No hard questions from my soft lips
G CThe ones you swore to me you'd kill to kiss
F DmIf you're asking to end this
G CThen please say "leave"
Interlude
Am Em F Mmm
Verse
CYou walked into a party,
Fstill had smoke in your mouth
Dm GThe light was dancing on you like a fire broke out
C FI was silent in the corner like a funeral mourner
DmWatching everything I'd ever been
G C Fwithout you fall away
Dm GFall away
Verse
C FIt was a desperate drug, I could never get enough
DmThere was something I could touch in you
G CThat touched in me a person who I wanted to uncover
FYou were more than just a lover
DmYou were infinite, and so was I
G CAnd so were we, or so I believed
Interlude
Am Em F Mmm
Chorus
Dm GTurned us both to stone, 45 feet thick
C FYou're amazing, my Medusa, you're a magic trick
Dm GI turned the other cheek a few too many times
C FMy angel, my Medusa, give me one more smile,
Dm Gand then please
Verse
CI won't plead my case to change your mind,
Fno use for that now
DmI'll fade into the background so
Gsomeday you can say how
CUndeniable the end became,
Fhow we both could see it coming
DmBut the truth is much more cruel,
Gif I'd have seen it, I'd be running to you
Verse
C FWrapped you in my arms, built a castle made of armor
Dm GHide us both away, I'd have done anything to save us
CBurn cities to the ground to keep that
Fvicious word out of your mouth
Dm GBut here I am, my blinding love and me
Chorus
Dm GTurned us both to stone, 45 feet thick
C FYou're amazing, my Medusa, you're a magic trick
Dm GI turned the other cheek a few too many times
C FMy angel, my Medusa, give me one more smile
Dm GAnd then please say it to me
Outro

F DmIf that's what you want from me
GAnd I'll have to give you that
C F Dm I'll drive out past the county lines,
Gand I won't look back
C F Dm And these wounds are gonna heal
G CAnd some mystery will be revealed
FBut I'll never be the same
Dm'cause of a love that didn't stay
G CTo which I'd never have been the one to say "leave"
