Sugarland Performs for the First Time in Five Years at Big Machine Label Group CMA After Party chords
Start Jamming...
[E] I've been sitting here staring [B] at the clock on the [E] wall
And I've been laying here praying, [B] praying she won't call
[F#m] It's just another call from home
[A] You'll get it and be gone [E] and I'll be crying
[B] [Bm]
[E] And I'll be begging [B] you baby, beg you not to [E] leave
But I'll be left [B] here waiting with my heart on the sleeve
[F#] [D] Oh, for the next time [Am] we'll be
Seems like a million years and [E] I think I'll
[B]
[F#m] What do I have to do [Am] to make you see
[F#m] She [A] can't love you [B] like me
Why [E] don't you stay down [A] on my knees
I'm [G#] so [F#] tired of being [F#m] lonely
Don't I give [B] you what you need [Cm] when she calls [C#m] you to go
There is [B] one thing you [A] should know
We don't [E] have to [F#m] live this way
[A] [B] Baby, why [E] don't you stay
[B]
[F#m] [G#] [A] [B]
[E] You keep telling me [B] baby there will come a [E] time
You'll leave [B] her arms and forever be mine
[Dm] Well I don't think [A] that's the truth
And I don't like being used
[E] I'm tired of waiting
[B]
[F#m] [A] It's too much pain [B] to have [F#m] to [F#]
bear
[A] I'll [A] [B] just say, why [E] don't you stay
I'm down [A] on my knees
I'm [E] so [F#m] tired of being lonely
Don't I give you what [B] you need [C] when she calls [C#m] you to go
There is [B] one thing you [A] should know
We [G#] don't have to [F#m] live this way
[A] [B]
Baby, why [E] don't you stay
I [F#m] ain't getting any longer, [A] it's getting [E] stronger
And I think I know just what I have to [B] do
[F#] I [F#m] can't waste another [E] minute
After [A] all that I've put in [E] it
I've given you my best
[B] Why does she get the best of you
[F#m] So the next time you find
[Am] You wanna leave her bed
[B] The man, [E] [B]
[Bm] why [E] don't you stay
I'm up [A] on my knees
I'm so [F#m] tired of being lonely
You can't give me what [B] I need
[C] When she begs you [C#] not to go
[C#m] There is [B] one thing you [A] should know
I don't [E] have to [F#m] live this way
[D]
[A] [Am] [B] Baby, why don't [E] you stay
[B] Yeah, [F#m] oh, oh, [G#] oh
[A] [B] Thank [E]
[C] [N]
you very much!
We love you!
