There’s some thing a bout you; it’s just the way you (E9)move,

(E5)Yeah,

I’m so (F#m7)good at for (D69)get ting

and I quit (F#m7)ev er y (D69)game I (E5)play.

But for (F#m7)give (C#m)me,

(D)love.

I can’t (Bm7)turn and walk a (E)way

this way.

(E5)Yeah,

should have (F#m7)smiled in that (D69)pic ture,

if it’s the (F#m7)last thing I’ll (D69)see of (E5)you.

It’s the (F#m7)least (C#m)that

could not do.

(E5)Ah.

I’ll (E)nev er give (A)up on you.

Leave

the light on

for me, too,

for me, too,

Yeah.

Back to me,

I know that it comes

back to me.

Does n’t it scare you?

Your will is not as (E)strong

as it used to be.
