        D                  

    If you, if you could return

                        A6   A 

    don't let it burn

                      A6   A 

    don't let it fade

                                   C    Cadd9

    I'm sure You’re happier

                                   C    Cadd9

    but it's just your attitude

                              G

    it's tearing me apart

                    

    it's ruining everyday

     

           D                        

    I swore, I swore I would be true

                               A6   A

    but honey so did you

          A6   A                                C    Cadd9 

    so why were you holding her hand

                                  C  Cadd9

    is that the way we stand

                               G

    We’re lying all the time

                        

    was it just a game to you

              

    Chorus:

                           D

    And I’m in so deep

                                     A6       A  

    you know I'm such a fool for you

    A6                      A                           C    Cadd9

         you got me wrapped around your finger

    C                Cadd9        G

         do you have to let it linger

          

    do you have to

          

    do you have to

                                 D

    do you have to let it linger

     

    D

    Oh, I

    A6                A            A6       A  

    thought the world of you

                          C          Cadd9      C    Cadd9

    I thought that nothing could go wrong

                      G

    but I was wrong

     

    I was wrong

     

     

     

     

        D

    If you, if you could get by

                       A6       A            

    trying not to lie

    A6                  A              C    Cadd9                  

    things wouldn't be so confused

                                    C    Cadd9           

    and I wouldn't feel so used

                                       G

    but you always really knew

     

    I just wanna be with you
