G D A Bm 



G                            D                        
 People like you always want back  
                    A 
The love they gave away 
                           Bm            
And people like me wanna believe you  
                       G 
When you say you cha-a-anged 
                          D                    A 
The more I think about it now the less I kno-o-ow 
                       Bm                       
All I know is that you drove us off the road 

   


G 
Stay, hey 
                     D 
All you had to do was, stay 
                           A 
Had me in the palm of your hand, hand 
                         Bm                A 
Why'd you have to go and lock me up when I let you in? 



G 
Stay, hey 
                       D 
Now you say you want it, back 
                       A 
Now that it's just too late 
                           Bm 
Well, it could've been easy 
               A           G 
All you had to do was, stay 
                           D 
All you had to do was, stay 
                           A 
All you had to do was, stay 
                           Bm 
All you had to do was, stay 
               A 
All you had to do was stay  





G                            D                           
 Here you are now calling me up  
                         A 
but I don't know what to say 
                         Bm            
I've been picking up the pieces  
       A            G 
Of the mess you made 
                            D                         
People like you always want back  
                      A 
The love they pushed aside 
                            Bm* 
And people like me are gone forever  

When you say goodbye
