[Em] [D] [E] [A]
[D] [E] [A] [E] [A]
Don't stray, [C#m] don't ever go [D] away I should be much too smart for this
You know it gets [G] the better [A] of me sometimes
[C#] When you and I collide [D] I fall into an ocean [Em] of you
Pull me out in time, [F#m] don't let me drown Let [C#m] me down
I say [D] it's all because of [E] you [A] And here I go, [C#m] losing my control
[D] I'm practicing your name so I can say it to your [Em] face
It [A] doesn't seem right [C#m] to look you in the [D] eye
Let all the [E] things you [Em] mean to me come jumbling out my mouth
Nothing [D] beats [F#m] time, I'm telling [E] you why [A] I'm [D] saying it's infinitely [E] true
Stay [A]
[E] and stay, don't [F#m] crumble like [Em] you do
[A] Sway my [E] way, yeah I need [F#m] to know all [E] about you
[A] There's no cure, [C#m] no way to be sure [D] Why everything's turning inside out
Instilling so much doubt, [A] it makes me so tired [C#m] I feel so uninspired
[D] My [G] head is battling with my [E] heart My logic has been torn [D] apart
And now it [F#m] all [C#m] turns sour Come [A] sweets [D] in the air of red to [E] blue
[A]
Stay [C#m] and stay, don't crumble [F#m] like [A] you [E] do
[A] Sway my [E] way, yeah I need [F#m] to know all [A] about [E] you
[A] Stay [E] and stay, don't crumble [F#m] like [A] you [E] do [A] Sway my [E] way, yeah I need [F#m] to know all [A] about [E] you
[D] It's all because of [E] you [A] It's [D] all because of [E] you
[A]
[D] [A]
And now it all turns [C#m] sour Come sweets in [D] the air of red to [E] blue
[A]
[D] Time, [F#m] I'm [Em] telling [C#m] you why [A] I'm saying [D] it's infinitely [A] true
[E] [A]
Stay and [E] stay, don't crumble [F#m] like [A] you do [E]
[A] Sway my [C#m] way, yeah I need to [F#m] know all [A] about [E] you
[A] Stay and stay, don't crumble [F#m] like you [A] do [E]
[A] Sway my way, yeah I need to [F#m] know all [A] about you
[C#m]
[D] It's all because of [Em] you It's [D] all because of you
[Em] It's [D] all because of you
