If you go, I'll come without a fiiiiiiight

I'm sick of hearing damning words of you come cursing through my head
A# G
And I'm too proud to sit here,chasing time, wasting things we shared,
C
Or thought we had.
F A# Dm
You said, I'm you digging a home
F A# Dm
Truth is, you left a long time agoooooooo
A# Dm
But you can turn it on and play the innocent, though you've been caught.
A# Dm
And I'm too proud to sit here, saying everything is how it was.
G
Never been this sure.
F G
Take it from where you want to grow, there's always tomorrow.

I'd rather have you smile than have you fall, no matter where you go.

Ten men in trial of love succeed
F A# Dm
All those in Arthur Street will walk freeee.
