[C] I've known it from the very start
[Am] We’re a shot in the darkest dark
[F] Oh no, oh no, I'm unarmed
[C] The waiting is a sadness
[Am] Fading into madness
[F] Oh no, oh no, it won't stop
[F] I’m standin' on a [C] tightrope a[G]lone
I hold my breath a little bit [F]longer
Halfway out the [C]door, but it won't [G]close
I'm holdin' out hope for you to
[F]Say, [C]"Don't [G]go"
I would stay forever if you [F]say, [C]"Don't [G]go"
Chorus
[F]Why'd you have to lead me [C]on?
Why’d you have to twist the [G]knife?
Walk away and leave me [C]bleedin’, [G]bleedin'?
[F]Why’d you whisper in the [C]dark?
Just to leave me in the [G]night?
Now your silence has me [C]screamin', [G]screamin'
[F](Say) Say, "[C](Don't) don’t [G](Go) go"
I would stay forevеr if you
[F](Say) say, "([C]Don't) don't [G](Go) go"
(Say, say, say, say)
[C]Now I'm pacin' on shaky ground
[Am]Strike a match, then you blow it out
[F]Oh no, oh no, it's not fair
[C]'Cause you kiss mе and it stops time
[Am]And I'm yours, but you're not mine
[F]Oh no, oh no, you're not there
[F]I'm standin' on the [C]sidewalk a[G]lone
I wait for you to drive by
[F]I'm tryna see the [C]cards that you won't [G]show
I'm about to fold unless you
[F](Say) Say, "[C](Don't) don't [G](Go) go"
I would stay forever if you
[F](Say) say, "[C](Don't) don't [G](Go) go"
Chorus
[F]Why'd you have to lead me [C]on?
Why’d you have to twist the [G]knife?
Walk away and leave me [C]bleedin’, [G]bleedin'?
[F]Why’d you whisper in the [C]dark?
Just to leave me in the [G]night?
Now your silence has me [C]screamin', [G]screamin'
[F](Say) Say, "[C](Don't) don’t [G](Go) go"
I would stay forevеr if you
[F](Say) say, "([C]Don't) don't [G](Go) go"
(Say, say, say, say)
[F]Why'd you have to (Why'd you [C]have to)
Make me want you? (Make me [G]want you)
Why'd you have to (Why'd you have to)
Give me nothin' [F]back?
Why'd you have to (Why'd you [C]have to)
Make me love you? (Make me [G]love you)
I said, "I love you", you say nothin' back...
Chorus
[F]Why'd you have to lead me [C]on?
Why’d you have to twist the [G]knife?
Walk away and leave me [C]bleedin’, [G]bleedin'?
[F]Why’d you whisper in the [C]dark?
Just to leave me in the [G]night?
Now your silence has me [C]screamin', [G]screamin'
[F](Say) Say, "[C](Don't) don’t [G](Go) go"
I would stay forevеr if you
[F](Say) say, "([C]Don't) don't [G](Go) go"
(Say, say, say, say)
But you [F]won't, but you [C]won't, but you [G]won't
I would stay forever if you [F]say, "[C]Don't [G]go"
But you [F]won't, but you [C]won't, but you [G]won't
