F#    B


[Verse 1]

F#m                         E
Is this masquerade finally over?
            F#m
Can we put down
                                     E
the roles that we've played so many times?
          F#m
Is this really the final curtain
                E
The end of the play?
        F#m
Or will we just dance this dance
              E
we've danced again and again and again?


[Chorus 1]

                   D
Once again I walk away
       F#m                          E
There's no turning back this time, baby
                   D
Once again I walk away
F#m                      E
every step I leave you behind me
                   D
Once again I walk away
   F#m                          E
Determined this time you'll be sorry
                   D
Once again I walk away
       F#m                        E
if you ask me, you know that I'd stay  (Yeah, C'mon)


[Verse 2]

F#m                                        E
If we put out the sun and stopped it from shining
              F#m
Girl, we both know
                                     E
We still couldn't be anymore in the dark
                  F#m
Ooh, there's no flashlight

There's no insight
               E
As hard as we try
              F#m
Ooh, we keep running round in circles
            E
Time after time, hello, goodbye


[Chorus 2]

                   D
Once again I walk away
       F#m                          E
There's no turning back this time, baby
                   D
Once again I walk away
 F#m                     E
every step I leave you behind me
                   D
Once again I walk away
  F#m                            E
Determined this time you'll be sorry
                   D
Once again I walk away
           F#m                        E
But if you ask me, you know that I'd stay  (yeah)


[Break 1]

D      F#m
I walk away
        E
I walk away
                 E
But I know that I'll be back again
D      F#m
I walk away
        E
I walk away
                                  D
But I know that I'll be back again
F#m              E
Yeah I walk away


[Chorus 3]

                   D
Once again I walk away
       F#m                         E
There's no turning back this time, baby
                   D
Once again I walk away
 F#m                     E
every step I leave you behind me
                   D
Once again I walk away
   F#m                           E
Determined this time you'll be sorry
                   D
Once again I walk away
           F#m                        E
But if you ask me, you know that I'd stay  (yeah)
