E                     B             A
With the sound of the ocean crashing 
                      
7:30 Friday evening 
     E           B        A     
Everything comes tumbling down 
                  E               B
I choke back each tear that bleeds
                   A                    
I'd rather rest forever in your arms 
           E              B     
I'd rather stay here than go 
                         A        
but I know that I should leave 
              (Start Riff 1)        
As I sit here helpless

Don't go 
                      B 
You said you wouldn't 
                       
You said you wouldn't 


      A     
Don't go 
                      
You said you wouldn't 
                       
You said you couldn't

Don't go

You said you couldn't                        Riff 1 is continuously   
                                             played by a second guitar
               B            A                until the end of the verse.
I think of our time together  
                                             
Is it fading, am I dreaming 
     E         B          A       
Everything you said lives on 
              E         B   
I cherish our memories 
                    A                     
I want to kiss your tears away tonight 
             E           B       
It's hard to give up the one 
                        A       
You never thought you'd leave
