Intro: Am G C G 


Verse 1:
 
              Am 
She's cutting out the bruises, 
   F             G               Am 
Forgetting her excuses for being here again 
       F                   C       G      Am 
with a suitcase packed and waiting by the door. 
                F                  G               Am 
In her head, convinced herself she hasn't lost enough to quit. 
      F                   C 
But tonight she lays here thinking, 
 G       F C    G 
'What if I just left 
       Am     G      F 
In the middle of the night 
C           G 
Back to California 
    Am G 
And never look back?' 


Am F She'll fantasize about it C G F every single day but she can't find it G Am in her heart to run away, C and no one's listening. Am F With Northern Massachusetts, C G on his knees to stay, he's begging, F G Am 'Please, oh baby please, I can explain. F G It won't happen again.'
Verse 2: Am He's putting out the fires F C and he's making her believe G Am he's really changed this time; F G Am But it's obvious it's just another lie, lapse and relapse. F C G And again she lays beside him thinking, F C G Am G F 'I'll pretend in the middle of the night, C G my eyes are closed, I'm sleeping, Am G But I won't come back.'
Am F She'll fantasize about it C G F every single day but she can't find it G Am in her heart to run away, C And no one's listening. Am F With Northern Massachusetts, C G On his knees to stay, he's begging, F G Am 'Please, oh baby please, I can explain. Ad lib: Am G F G It won't happen again... It won't happen again'
Bridge: Am How long can this last? G#m The final straw was the hospital. F At least she told herself that. G But she just can't find the strength to end it. F C G Am G F 'I just left in the middle of the night, C G Back to California, Am G And never look back...'
