Remove Ads[Verse 1]
GI've known it from the very start
DWe’re a shot in the darkest dark
EmOh no, oh no
CI'm unarmed
GThe waiting is a sadness
DFading into madness
EmOh no, oh no
CIt won't stop
[Chorus]
GI’m standing on a tightrope alone
DI hold my breath a little bit longer
EmHalfway out the door, but it won't close
CI'm holding out for you to say, "Don't go"
I would stay forever if you say, "Don't go"
[Verse 2]
GWhy'd you have to lead me on?
DWhy you'd have to twist the knife?
EmWalk away and leave me
CBleeding, bleeding?
GWhy'd you whisper in the dark
DJust to leave me in the night?
EmNow you silence has me
CScreaming, screaming
[Chorus]
GSay, "Don’t go"
D Em CI would stay forever if you say, "Don’t go"
[Verse 3]
GNow I'm facing on shaky ground
DStrik? a match, then you blow it out
EmOh no, oh no
CIt’s not fair
G'Cause you kiss me and it stops tim?
DAnd I'm yours, but you're not mine
EmOh no, oh no
CNow you’re not there
[Chorus]
GI'm standing on the sidewalk alone
DI wait for you to drive by
EmI'm trying to see the cards that you won't show
CI'm about to fold unless you say, "Don't go"
GI would stay forever if you say, "Don't go"
DI'm standing on a tightrope alone
EmI hold my breath a little bit longer
CHalfway out the door, but it won't close
G DI'm holding out for you to say, "Don't go"
Em CI would stay forever if you say, "Don't go"
[Bridge]
GWhy'd you have to make me want you?
DWhy'd you have to give me nothing back?
EmWhy'd you leave to make me love you?
CI said, "I love you," you say nothing back
[Chorus]
GI'm standing on a tightrope alone
DI hold my breath a little bit longer
EmHalfway out the door, but it won't close
CI'm holding out for you to say, "Don't go"
I would stay forever if you say, "Don't go"
[Outro]
GBut you won't
DBut you won't
EmBut you won't
CBut you won't
GI would stay forever if you say, "Don't go"
DBut you won't
EmBut you won't
CBut you won't
But you won't
