Intro
[D]
Verse 1
[D]
I've known it from the very start
[Bm]
We're a shot in the darkest dark
[G]
Oh no, oh no, I'm unarmed
[D]
The waiting is a sadness
[Bm]
Fading into madness
[G]
Oh no, oh no, it won't stop
Pre-Chorus
[G] [D] [A]
I'm standin' on a tightrope alone
[G]
I hold my breath a little bit longer
[D] [A]
Halfway out the door, but it won't close
[G] [D] [A]
I'm holdin' out hope for you to say, "Don't go"
[G] [D] [A]
I would stay forever if you say, "Don't go"
Chorus
[G] [D]
Why'd you have to lead me on?
[A]
Why you'd have to twist the knife?
Walk away and leave me bleedin', bleedin'?
[G] [D]
Why'd you whisper in the dark
[A]
Just to leave me in the night?
Now your silence has me screamin', screamin'
[G] [D] [A]
(Say) Say, "(Don't) Don't (Go) go"
[G] [D] [A]
I would stay forever if you (Say) say, "(Don't) Don't (Go) go"
(Say, say, say, say)
Verse 2
[D]
Now I'm pacin' on shaky ground
[Bm]
Strikе a match, then you blow it out
[G]
Oh no, oh no, it's not fair
[D]
'Cause you kiss me and it stops timе
[Bm]
And I'm yours, but you're not mine
[G]
Oh no, oh no, you're not there
Pre-Chorus
[G] [D] [A]
I'm standin' on the sidewalk alone
I wait for you to drive by
[G] [D] [A]
I'm tryna see the cards that you won't show
[G] [D] [A]
I'm about to fold unless you (Say) say, "(Don't) Don't (Go) go"
[G] [D] [A]
I would stay forever if you (Say) say, "(Don't) Don't (Go) go"
Chorus
[G] [D]
Why'd you have to lead me on?
[A]
Why you'd have to twist the knife?
Walk away and leave me bleedin', bleedin'?
[G] [D]
Why'd you whisper in the dark
[A]
Just to leave me in the night?
Now your silence has me screamin', screamin'
[G] [D] [A]
(Say) Say, "(Don't) Don't (Go) go"
[G] [D] [A]
I would stay forever if you (Say) say, "(Don't) Don't (Go) go"
(Say, say, say, say)
Bridge
[G] [D]
Why'd you have to (Why'd you have to)
[A]
Make me want you (Make me want you)?
Why'd you have to (Why'd you have to)
[G]
Give me nothin' back?
[D]
Why'd you have to (Why'd you have to)
[A]
Make me love you (Make me love you)?
N.C.
I said, "I love you," you say nothin' back
Chorus
[D]
Why'd you have to lead me on? (Oh)
[A]
Why you'd have to twist the knife?
Walk away and leave me bleedin', bleedin'?
[G] [D]
Why'd you whisper in the dark
[A]
Just to leave me in the night?
Now your silence has me screamin', screamin' (Woah)
[G] [D] [A]
(Say) Say, "(Don't) Don't (Go) go"
[G] [D] [A]
I would stay forever if you (Say) say, "(Don't) Don't (Go) go" woah

But you won't, but you won't, but you won't

But you won't, but you won't, but you won't
