Standard (EADGBE)

Verse

I can see the pain living in your eyes

 And i know how hard you try

 You deserve to have so much more

I can feel your heart and i sympathize

 And i'll never criticize all you've ever meant to my life

Refrain

I don't want to let you down

I don't want to lead you on

I don't want to hold you back

 From where you might belong

Chorus

You would never ask me why

 My heart is so disguised

 I just can't live a lie anymore

I would rather hurt myself

 Than to ever make you cry

 There's nothing left to say but good-bye

Verse 2

same chords as Verse 1)

You deserve the chance at the kind of love

I'm not sure i'm worthy of

Losing you is painful to me

(Repeat Ref and then Chorus)

Interlude

Chorus

You would never ask me why

 My heart is so disguised

 I just can't live a lie anymore

I would rather hurt myself

 Than to ever make you cry

 There's nothing left to try

Though it's gonna hurt us both

There's no other way than to say good-bye
