[Verse 1]
C Cmaj7 C6 Cmaj7
Here am I one sad and lonely guy,
C Cmaj7 C
one shadow of the man I used to be.
F
Now it's past, the love I thought would last
F G
you thought I had you chained, and now you're free.
C Cmaj7 C6 Cmaj7
I know it's wrong but I'm still holding on,
C Cmaj7 C
still praying you will soon come back to me.
F
But then you go, you let your feelings show;
F G
you said I gave you pain, and now I see.
[Chorus]
C Cmaj7 C6 Cmaj7
But baby, as you turn away, I will always
Am F F/E
think of what we had together.
Dm G
Maybe this is just your way of breaking my
C Cmaj7 C6 Cmaj7
heart And it's
C C7
easier to say goodbye,
F Fm
making me fall, making me try,
Em F G
try to make you stay as you turn
C Cmaj7 C6 Cmaj7
away.
[Verse 2]
C Cmaj7 C6 Cmaj7
Now you're gone, this road I walk upon is
C Cmaj7 C
just another place where I can hide.
F
I'm still your man, there's proof of who I am;
F G
except without your love I'm dead inside.
[Chorus]
C Cmaj7 C6 Cmaj7
But baby, as you turn away, I will always
Am F F/E
think of what we had together.
Dm G
Maybe this is just your way of breaking my
C Cmaj7 C6 Cmaj7
heart And it's
C C7
easier to say goodbye,
F Fm
making me fall, watching me try,
Em F G
try to make you stay as you turn away.
C Cmaj7 C6 Cmaj7
baby, as you turn away
Am F F/E
I will always think of what we had together.
Dm G
Maybe this is just your way of breaking my
C Cmaj7 C6 Cmaj7
heart.
C C7
And it's easier to say goodbye,
F Fm
watching me fall, making me try,
Em F G
try to make you stay as you turn away.
C Cmaj7 C6 Cmaj7
Baby, as you turn away
Am F F/E
I will always think of what we had together.
Dm G
Maybe this is just your way of breaking my
C Cmaj7 C6 Cmaj7
heart.
C C7
And it's easier to say goodbye,
F Fm
watching me fall, making me try,
Em F G
try to make you stay as you turn
C Cmaj7 C6 Cmaj7
away.
C Cmaj7 C6 Cmaj7
Baby as you turn... (voc ad libs)
