Gm F Dm G F
(Verse 1)

Let's not fight it anymore, unpack the bags and

close the door, I'll never leave you, no, no.
Cm F Cm
Though you lied right from the start, I can't convince
F Bb
my stupid heart not to believe you.
(Verse 2)
Bb Bb7
You've got two good men strung out and there's not the
Eb Cm
slightest doubt that other men have loved you before.
Bb Cm
But you work your thing so well, I'll dream of Heaven

Cm F Cm
So, I'll accept the crumbs you drop, cause I'm a fool and
F Bb
I can't stop or rise above you.
(Verse 4)

Let him speak up for himself, I speak for me and no one
(aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa)

ground and start all over, over and over and over.
Cm F Cm
Now, him or I must win or lose, no matter which one you may
F Bb
choose, you'll be in clover, you know you will.

prayin' all the time, prayin' that you'll never, never, never
Cm
be letting me go.
