D               A              Bm
Every time you say to me it’s over

You just wanna start again, it’s just lies
D                       A
The girl who cries wolf every day
Bm               A             G              Gm
Ignored by gravity, but in the end, don’t ask why

Bm                 F#m               G
You say you wanna, but do you wanna run away?
G
Your great escape, oh yeah
Bm               F#m
Where you going? Always running
G
Find a way to call it quits again

Chorus:
D                     G                     Em
So look at me in the eye, Is anyone there at all
Em                 A                           D
Is anyone there at all, Cause I’m not dreaming
D                       G                   Em
So look at me in the eye, Is anyone there at all
Em                 A                        D
Is anyone there at all, Cause I’m not leaving

D
Eh-eh-oh, eh-eh-oh-oh
G
'Cause I'm not leaving
Bm      F#m        G
Eh-eh-oh, eh-eh-oh-oh

Does it have to be this tragedy? This endless lost parade
A castle of facade and make-believe?
The truth is spelled out in your eyes
Why don't you just reach out and make it clear to me?
What are you telling me?

You say you wanna, but do you wanna run away?
Your great escape, oh, yeah
Where you going? Always runnin'
Back to where you called it quits again

Chorus

'Cause I'm not leaving
('Cause I'm not leaving, 'cause I'm not leaving)
'Cause I'm not leaving
('Cause I'm not leaving, 'cause I'm not leaving)

Is anyone there? Is anyone there at all?
