Some of the chords I use aren't the exact chords used in the recording, but I
think it sounds fine.
(Standard tuning, capo on 3rd fret)
INTRO:
Em G Am C (x3)
Em G
Scratched out a note I wrote for you
Am
to wake and read
C Em
to know that I was there once
G Am
I knew that there was nothing that I could write to assure you
C
of my return
Em G
But all the paper said when I was done is
Am C
do you still want me?
Em G Am
because I'd be terrified if I had to leave this place today
C
We haven't saved the baby
D
As I said
my darling
C D
spring is constantly calling me
C E
and there's no place that I'd rather be
Em G Am
I won't be angry
D Em
if you have to leave,
G Am
but I won't be waiting
D Em
for that day
G Am
So don't say you�re sorry because
D Em G Am
I won't believe, I won't believe you
Em G Am
Didn't see a sticker on the door when we walked in
C
but I know it's going to cost us
Em G Am
the same amount of love it takes to get you through
C
but it never moves you
Em G Am
I'd be terrified if I had to leave this place today
C
It's where I threw my love away
Em G Am
Then we saw a different side of "Annie" nobody saw
C
She tried to kill the baby
D
and the earth and its skin will open up
C D
and birth out a perfect mirror
C E
that makes all our reflections clear
Em G Am
I won't be angry
D Em
if you have to leave,
G Am
but I won't be waiting
D Em
for that day
G Am
So don't say you're sorry because
D Em G Am
I won't believe, I won't believe you
OUTRO:
