“Stay” Sugarland (Cover by Casi Joy) chords
Start Jamming...
[E] I've been sitting here [B] staring at the clock on the wall
[E] [B] Praying, praying, praying she won't call
[F#m] It's just another call from home
[A] You'll get it and be gone and [E] I'll be crying
[B]
[E] And I'll be begging you [B] baby, begging on to leave
[E] But I'm left here [B] waiting with my heart on my sleeve
[F#m] For the next time we'll be here
[A] Seems like a million years and I [E] think I'm dying
[B]
[F#m] What do I have to do [A] to make you see
[F#m] That she [A] can't love you [B] like me
So why don't [E] you stay
I'm down on [A] my knees
I'm so [E] tired of [F#m] being lonely
Don't I give you [B] what you [G#] need
When she calls [C#m] you to go
There [B] is one thing [A] you should know
We [E] don't have to [F#m] live this way
[A] [B] So baby why [E] don't you stay
[B]
[F#m] And [A]
[B] [E] you keep telling [B] me baby there will come a time
[E] When you'll leave her [B] arms and forever be mine
[F#m] But I don't think that's the [E] truth
[A] And I don't like being used and I'm [E] tired of waiting
[B]
It's [F#m] too much pain [A] to have to [F#m] bear
To [A] love a man you [B] have to share
So why don't [E] you stay
I'm down on [A] my knees
I'm so [E] tired of [F#m] being lonely
Don't I give you [B] what you need
[G#] When she calls [C#m] you to go
There is [B] one thing you [A] should know
We don't have to [F#m] live this way
[A] [B] So baby why don't [E] you stay
I'm [F#m]
[A] getting stronger
[E] And I think I know just what I [B] have to do
I [F#m] can't waste another [E] minute
[A] After all I've put in [E] it
I've given you my best
Why does [B] she get the best of you
[F#m] So the next time you find
[A] You wanna leave her bed
[B] I'm out, [E]
[B] [E] you stay
I'm up off [A] my knees
I'm [E] so tired [F#m] of being lonely
You can't give me [B] what I [G#] need
When she begs [C#m] you not to go
There [B] is one thing [A] you should know
I [E] don't have to [F#m] live this way
[A] [B] So baby why [E] don't you stay
[B] Oh
[F#m] [A] [B] [E]
