[A] [Am]
[G] [F]
[C] [B] [Am]
[Em] [F]
As [C] I walk away, [A] [Am]
[G] my world comes tumbling [F] down.
That's [C] alright, you'll [A] go home [Am] again [G] without me.
[C] Tomorrow, [Am]
it [G] doesn't matter if you want me [F] to stay.
Should [C] I turn around, [G] come back to you, or should I keep on walking away?
[F] It feels so good [C] with you, [F] it feels alright [C] with you.
But I will [Bb] bring you sorrow if [F] I stay with you.
Now [C] if I hurt you, [Am] forgive me, [G] try not to lose faith [F] in me.
You know [C] I would never [Am] hurt you [Em] intentionally.
[G]
[C] What will you do [G] tomorrow?
Without [Em] your love I would surely lose [F] my way.
And [C] rush headlong into [Am] nowhere on [G] a ghost highway.
[F] It feels so good [C] with you, [F] it feels alright [C] with you.
But I will [Bb] bring you sorrow if [F] I stay with you.
[C] [G] I would lay [F]
[C] [A]
[G] down my life [F] for you.

[A] [Am] [G] I
[F] [C] kept going on, [Am] when going on [Em] made no real sense [F] at all.
But it's no [C] good now, it's all [A] [Am] clear to me.
Now [G] that my back is against the wall, [C] through [A] tomorrow.
[Am] It [G] doesn't matter, I know [F] you will.
And we'll be [C] together forever, [A] by [Am] the way we [G] made each other feel.
And [C] I will lay for [A] you, [Am] I [G] will lay for [F] you.
Cause [C] it feels so good with [G] you, [Am] yes [G] it feels alright with [F] you.
[C] I will lay for [G] you, [Am] I [G] will lay down my life for [F] you.
[C]
[A] [Am] I [G] will lay down my life [F] for you.
