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