[G#m]
[C#] [F#]
And if I have to go, [G#] will you [F#] remember me?
[G#m] Or will you find [F#] someone else while I'm away?
[G#m] There's nothing [C#] for me [A#m] in this world full of [D#m] strangers.
[G#m] It's all [C#] someone [B] else's [F#] idea.
[B] I [C#] don't belong here, [A#m] and you can't [D#m] go with me.
[G#m] You'll only slow me down [B] [C#]
until I send for [G#] you.
Don't [F#] wear your hair that way.
[B]
If you cannot [G#m] be true, [F#] [C#]
I'll [F#] understand.
[B] Tell all [D#] the others [A#m] you hold in your [D#m] arms,
[G#m] I said [C#] I'd come [G#m] back [F#] for you.
