[Verse 1]
A                  Amaj7
Before you go walk out on me
G             A7           D
Take a look around tell me what you see
A            Amaj7
Here I stand like an open book
G                  A7                  D
Is there something here you might have overlooked
D                    E7           A     
'Cause it would be a shame if you leave
              Bm7                E7                    A
And find that freedom ain't what you  thought it would be


[Verse 2]
A                     Amaj7
The years we had were not all bad
   G               A7                  D
In fact I know the good outweighed the bad
    A                Amaj7
But now you say that you've grown tired
    G          A             D
You want to be by yourself a while
D                 E            Amaj7
But it would be a shame if you go
              Bm7           E7        A
And find that freedom was a long time ago


[Bridge]
  D                   E                     A
I know that you can't stand the chains that bind you
    Bm7               E7         A
But they just keep on drivin' us apart
    D                  E             A        
And you could go where I would never find you
          E      F#m       D                  E        E7    
Could you go far enough to get away from your heart

[Verse 3]
A                     Amaj7
So one more time, for ol'  times sake
G                 A7           D
Come and lay your head upon my chest
A                       Amaj7
Please don't throw this moment away
    G             A7               D
We can forget the bad and take the best
D                     E               Amaj7
But if you don't have nothing left to say
       Bm7               E7                 A     
Let me hold you one more time for ol' times sake

[Outro]
D                     E               A      E
And if you don't have nothing left to say
       Bm7               E7                 A     Amaj7  A
Let me hold you one more time for ol' times sake
