Intro
[D]
[D]I've known it from the very start
[Am]We're a shot in the darkest dark
[G]Oh no, oh no
I'm unarmed
[D]The waiting is a sadness
[Am]Fading into madness
[G]Oh no, oh no
It won't stop
[D]I'm standing on a [Am]tightrope, alone
[D]I hold my breath a [Am]little bit longer
[D]Halfway out the door, but it [Am]won't close
[Am]I'm holding out hope for you to [G]say, " [D]Don't [Am]go"
[Am]I would stay forever if you [G]say, " [D]Don't [Am]go"
[D]Why'd you have to lead me on?
[Am]Why'd you have to twist the knife?
[G]Walk away and leave me bleeding, bleeding
[D]Why'd you whisper in the dark
[Am]Just to leave me in the night?
[G]Now your silence has me screaming, screaming
[G]Say, " [D]Don't [Am]go" (Say, "Don't go")
I would stay forever if you
[G]say, " [D]Don't [Am]go" (Say, "Don't go")
[G]Say, say, say, say
[D]Now I'm pacing on shaky ground
[Am]Strike a match, then you blow it out
[G]Oh no, oh no
It's not fair
' [D]Cause you kiss me and it stops time
[Am]And I'm yours, but you're not mine
[G]Oh no, oh no
You're not there
[D]I'm standing on the [Am]sidewalk, alone
[D]I wait for you to [Am]drive by
[D]I was trying to see the cards that [Am]you won't show
[Am]I'm about to fold unless you
[G]say, " [D]Don't [Am]go" (Say, "Don't go")
I would stay forever if you
[G]say, " [D]Don't [Am]go" (Say, "Don't go")
Oh-ah
[D]Why'd you have to lead me on?
[Am]Why'd you have to twist the knife?
[G]Walk away and leave me bleeding, bleeding
[D]Why'd you whisper in the dark
[Am]Just to leave me in the night?
[G]Now your silence has me screaming, screaming
[G]Say, " [D]Don't [Am]go" (Say, "Don't go")
I would stay forever if you
[G]say, " [D]Don't [Am]go" (Say, "Don't go")
[G]Say, say, say, say
[D]Why'd you have to [Am]make me want
you? (Why'd you have to make me want you?)
[D]Why'd you have to [Am]give me
nothing back? (Why'd you have to)
[D]Why'd you have to [Am]make me love you?
(Why'd you have to make me love you?)
[D]I said, "I love you, " [Am]you say
nothing back (I said, "I love you")
[D]Why'd you have to lead me on?
[Am]Why'd you have to twist the knife?
[G]Walk away and leave me bleeding, bleeding
[D]Why'd you whisper in the dark
[Am]Just to leave me in the night?
[G]Now your silence has me screaming, screaming
[G]Say, " [D]Don't [Am]go" (Say, "Don't go")
I would stay forever if you [G]
say, " [D]Don't [Am]go" (Say, "Don't go")
[G]Say, say, say, say
[D]But you won't
[G]But you won't
[Am]I would stay forever if you [G]say, " [D]Don't [Am]go"
[D]But you won't
[G]But you won't
[D]But you won't
