Right Where You Left Me - All You Had To Do Was Stay(Chords)

	        Intro: G Am F C G 

Verse 1:
G 
Friends break up, friends get married 
Am 
Strangers get born, strangers get buried 
F 
Trends change, rumors fly through new skies 
     C                    G 
But I'm right where you left me 
G 
Matches burn after the other 
Am 
Pages turn and stick to each other 
F 
Wages earned and lessons learned 
        C                   G 
But I, I'm right where you left me 

Pre-Chorus
G                              Am 
Help, I'm still at the restaurant 
                               F 
Still sitting in a corner I haunt 

Cross-legged in the dim light 
C                             G 
They say, 'What a sad sight,' I 
G                                  Am 
I swear you could hear a hair pin drop 
                               F 
Right when I felt the moment stop 

Glass shattered on the white cloth 
C                   G  Dm 
Everybody moved on, I, I stayed there 
                     C 
Dust collected on my pinned-up hair 
G                    Dm 
They expected me to find somewhere 
                         C              G 
Some perspective, but I sat and stared right where 


G                  Am                   F 
You left me, you left me no, oh, you left me no 
      C                        G 
You left me no choice but to stay here forever 


Interlude: Dm C G 

Verse 2:
F                             C 
People like you always want back 
                      G 
The love they gave away 
                             Am 
And people like me wanna believe you 
                         F 
When you say you've changed 
                           C 
The more I think about it now 
              G 
The less I know 
                         Am 
All I know is that you drove us 
G 
Off the road 


F                                C 
(Stay) Hey, all you had to do was stay 
                            G 
Had me in the palm of your hand, then 
                           Am 
Why'd you have to go and lock me out when I let you in? 
F                                  C 
(Stay) Hey, now you say you want it back 
                        G                          Am 
Now that it's just too late, well, could've been easy 

All you had to do was (Stay) 


Post-Chorus
 
 F                           C 
All you had to do was (Stay) 
                            G 
All you had to do was (Stay) 
                   Am 
All you had to do was 

All You Had to Do Was Stay Bridge 
G 
Let me remind you 
F        C          G 
This was what you wanted (Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh) 
Am 
You ended it 
F        C        G 
You were all I wanted (Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh) 
G 
But not like this 

Interlude: C 

Right Where You Left Me Bridge 
G*                                       Am* 
Did you ever hear about the girl who got frozen? 
                                           F* 
Time went on for everybody else, she won't know it 
                                    C* 
She's still twenty-three inside her fantasy 
            G*           G 
How it was supposed to be 
                                            Am 
Did you hear about the girl who lives in delusion? 
                                              F 
Breakups happen every day, you don't have to lose it 
                                      C 
She's still twenty-three inside her fantasy 
                        G 
And you're sitting in front of me 

Pre-Chorus 
              Am 
At the restaurant 
                              F 
When I was still the one you want 

Cross-legged in the dim light 
 C                         G 
Everything was just right, I 
                          Am 
I could feel the mascara run 
                              F 
You told me that you met someone 

Glass shattered on the white cloth 
C                 G 
Everybody moved on 
G                              Am 
Help, I'm still at the restaurant 
                               F 
Still sitting in a corner I haunt 

Cross-legged in the dim light 
C                              G Dm 
They say, 'What a sad sight,' I, I stayed there 
                      C 
Dust collected on my pinned-up hair 
G                        Dm 
I'm sure that you got a wife out there 
                              C                 G 
Kids and Christmas, but I'm unaware 'cause I'm right where 
   Dm 
I cause no harm, mind my business 
        C                   G                           Dm 
If our love died young, I can't bear witness, and it's been so long 
                       C                 G 
If you ever think you got it wrong, I'm right where 

Chorus 
                  Am                   F 
You left me, you left me no, oh, you left me no 
      C                        G 
You left me no choice but to stay here forever 
Am 
So all you had to do was stay? 
F 
and all you had to do was stay 
C 
all you had to do was stay 
G                         C* 
all you had to do was stay
