Dm
I know you think that I shouldn't still love you
      Am
I'll tell you that
Dm
But if I didn't say it, well I'd still have felt it
  Am
Where's the sense in that?
          C
I promise I'm not trying to make your life harder
Gm                        Am
Or return to where we were

Chorus:
A#                              F
Well I will go down with this ship
            Gm                     Dm
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
              A#                      F
There will be no white flag above my door
        C              Gm
I'm in love and always will be

I know I left too much mess and destruction
To come back again
And I caused nothing but trouble
I understand if you can't talk to me again
And if you live by the rules of "it's over"
Then I'm sure that that makes sense

Chorus

F
And when we meet, as I'm sure we will
              Am
All that was then, will be there still
             Gm
I'll let it pass, and hold my tongue
               C
And you will think, that I've moved on

Chorus:
I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be
I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be
