Lyrics

Say some thing, (G)I’m giv ing up on you.

I’ll be the one if you want me to.

An y where (G)I would have fol lowed you.

Say some thing, (G)I’m giv ing up on you.

And (D)I

am feel ing so (F#m)small.

I was (G)o ver my head;

I know noth ing at (D)all.

And (D)I

will stum ble and (F#m)fall.

I’m still (G)learn ing to love,

just I’m start ing to crawl.

Say some thing, (G)I’m giv ing up on you.

And I’m sor ry that I could n’t get to you.

And An y where (G)I would have fol lowed you.

Say some thing, (G)I’m giv ing up on you.

And (D)I

will swal low my (F#m)pride.

You’re the (G)one that I love,

and I’m say ing good bye.

Say some thing, (G)I’m giv ing up on you.

And I’m sor ry that I could n’t get to you.

And any y where (G)I would have fol lowed you.

Say some thing, (G)I’m giv ing up on you.

And

Say some thing, (G)I’m giv ing up on you.

Say some thing.
