Intro: Em    G6    Cmaj7  Asus2 x 3
          


Verse 1

Em                     G6
Scratched out a note I wrote for you
       
   Cmaj7
to wake and read

              Asus2
and knowww that I was there once

Em                                G6                 Cmaj7
I knew that there was nothing that I could write to assure you 

   Asus2 
of my return

    Em                     G6             Cmaj7
But all the paper said when I was done is do
              Asus2
do you still want me?
        Em                          G6                 Cmaj7
because Id be terrified if I had to leave this place today
          Asus2
We havent saved the baby



Pre-Chorus:

Bm
        As I said 

my darling 
          Cmaj7               Bm
spring is constantly calling me
           Cmaj7                   Bm
and theres no place that Id rather be



Chorus:

Em       G6         Bm
   I     wont be angry 
D
if you have to leave, 
Em         G6           Bm
     but I wont be waiting
D           
for that day
Em          G6           Bm
    So dont say youre sorry because
D            Em
I wont believe 
G6       Bm    D
I wont believe you

Break:  Em G6 Cmaj7 Asus2  x2 


Verse 2:
 Em                          G6                  Cmaj7
I didnt see a sticker on the door when we walked in
               Asus2
but I know its gonna cost us 
    Em                     G6               Cmaj7
the same amount of love it takes to get you through
       Asus2
but it never moves you
Em                          G6                Cmaj7
Id be terrified if I had to leave this place today
            Asus2
Its where I threw my love away
Em                              G6           Cmaj7
Then we saw a different side of Annie nobody saw 
             Asus2
She tried to kill the baby


Pre-Chorus:
        Bm
and the earth and its skin will open up
    Cmaj7                     Bm
and birth out a perfect mirror 
          Cmaj7                Bm
that makes all our reflections clear

Chorus:
Em    G6          Bm
    I wont be angry 
   D                 Em
if you have to leave, 
      G6         Bm
but I wont be waiting
D
for that day
Em         G6           Bm  
    So dont say youre sorry because
D              Em
I wont believe 
G6         Bm   D
I  wont believe you


Outro:   Em G6  Cmaj7 Asus2  (7x)
