       A
Walk away
        G      D
If you want to
       A
It's okay
        G     D
If you need to
         A       D             E  D
You can run but you can never hide
           A             D            E    D
From the shadow that's creeping up beside you
F#m7                       D
There's a magic running through your soul
     G                E
But you can't have it all

Chorus:

Whatever you do
A         D          E          D
I'll be two steps behind you (Wherever you go)
A         D             E    D
And I'll be there to remind you
        A             D               E       G
That it only takes a minute of your precious time
          D
To turn around
                     A  D G D
I'll be two steps behind
       A  D G D
Yeah, yeah

Take the time
And think about it
Walk the line, you just can't fight it
Look around and see what you can find
Like a fire that's burning up inside me
There's a magic running through your soul
But you can't have it all

Chorus

     F#m7                       D
Ohh, there's a magic running through your soul
     G                     E
But you, you can't have it all

Chorus

       G
Yeah, baby
  D          A
Two steps behind
D     G
Ohh, sugar
  D          A
Two steps behind
