Lyrics

I can tell, I can (G#m)tell how much you hate this.

And deep a down in side, (B)did you know it’s kill ing the me.

I can call, wish you (G#m)well and try to change this, but noth ing I can say (B)care; would change in’ to an y thing.

Where were were my sens es?

I

left them all be hind.

Why did I turn a way,

a way?

I wish I could (E)save you.

I wish I could (C#m7)say to you, “I’m not go ing (E)no where.”

I wish I could (C#m7)say to you,

“It’s gon na be al right.”

It’s gon na be al right.

Did n’t mean, did n’t (G#m)mean to leave you strand ed.

And Went a way ’cause I (B)did n’t wan na face ing the truth.

Reach ing out, reach for (G#m)me and emp ty hand ed.

but You don’t know if I (B)care; you’re try in’ to find the proof.

There were times I’d won der, could

I have eased your pain?

Why did I turn a way,

a way?

I wish I could (E)save you.

I wish I could (C#m7)say to you, “I’m not go ing (E)no where.”

I wish I could (C#m7)say to you,

“It’s gon na be al right.”

It’s gon na be al right.

“It’s gon na be al right.”

(It’s gon na be Al right.

(It’s gon na be al right.) (E)Save you,

(It’s gon I wish I could right.) (C#m7)save you.

I’m not go ing (E)no where.”
