Intro
C# F#
[Verse 1]
C#m B
Is this masquerade finally over?
C#m
Can we put down
B
the roles that we've played so many times?
C#m
Is this really the final curtain
B
The end of the play?
C#m
Or will we just dance this dance
B
we've danced again and again and again?
[Chorus 1]
A
Once again I walk away
C#m B
There's no turning back this time, baby
A
Once again I walk away
C#m B
every step I leave you behind me
A
Once again I walk away
C#m B
Determined this time you'll be sorry
A
Once again I walk away
C#m B
if you ask me, you know that I'd stay (Yeah, C'mon)
[Verse 2]
C#m B
If we put out the sun and stopped it from shining
C#m
Girl, we both know
B
We still couldn't be anymore in the dark
C#m
Ooh, there's no flashlight
There's no insight
B
As hard as we try
C#m
Ooh, we keep running round in circles
B
Time after time, hello, goodbye
[Chorus 2]
A
Once again I walk away
C#m B
There's no turning back this time, baby
A
Once again I walk away
C#m B
every step I leave you behind me
A
Once again I walk away
C#m B
Determined this time you'll be sorry
A
Once again I walk away
C#m B
But if you ask me, you know that I'd stay (yeah)
