[Intro]
G D Bm D G D Bm

[Verse]
G D Bm D
Maybe you're right, I'm no good
G D Bm D
Got a heart made of glass and a head made of wood
G D A D
Let me make it clear, when I'm gone, I'm gone
G D A D
The night's just the night and there's no coming dawn

[Chorus]
Bm D
When shall I return?
G D
I confess I don't know
Bm D
What's around the bend?
G D
What's left to unfold?
Bm D G D
I could promise you the moon brought down with a lasso
Bm D G D
I need to stay, but alas I must go
D G D A

[Verse]
G D Bm D
Back in the stark woods behind your old house
G D Bm D
I buried something that'll leave you no doubt
G D A D
Something to prove myself to you
G D A D
Half is a lie, but the good part's true

[Chorus]
Bm D
When shall I return?
G D
I confess I don't know
Bm D
What's around the bend?
G D
What's left to unfold?
Bm D G D
I could promise you the moon brought down with a lasso
Bm D G D
I need to stay, but alas I must go
Bm D G D
Maybe you should move on, and I'll go it alone

[Bridge]
G D
Out in the barren field where we first met
(Continue to hold D)
Full of decay from a life in the red
G A Bm D
Oaths that I broke, the money I spent
G D/F# A7sus4 D
Couldn't make it work, couldn't even make rent
G A Bm D
All the people I forgot that I knew, that I met
G D/F# A7sus4 D
Maybe my life will repay the debt

G D G D
I need to stay, I need to stay
G Bm G D
I need to stay, but alas I must go
G D G D
Thought you wanted me to stay, but you need me to go
G D
I just want to say
G D
Now I finally know

[Interlude]
Bm D/F# Bm D/F# A7sus4 (5x)

[Outro]
D
Bm G A D
Bm G A D
Alas, I must go
Bm G A D
Alas, I must go
Bm G A D
Alas, I must go
