VERSE 1
Em A2
And you walked out when I asked you to stay

As usual you get your way
Em A2
You closed the door and stumbled down to the street
C G G/F#
Where you wring your hands, and you drag your feet there
PRE-CHORUS 1
C
Where the words can't find you, to crawl inside you

Others lie, lie, lie, they adore you

I'll be the one to tell

But you can't hide standing under these stars

And they're shining down their light to bring you back again
