There’s some thing a bout you, it’s just the way you move,

the way you 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 play.

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

I can’t (Bm7)turn and walk a way

this way.

(E5)Yeah,

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

It’s the (F#m7)least (C#m)that (D)you

(E5)Ah.

I’ll (E)nev er give up on you.

Leave

Yeah.

Back to me,

I know that it comes

back to me.

Does n’t it scare you?

Your will is not as strong

as it used to be.
