G
Never thought that I would grow so
old of seeing the gold
                   D
Still I never want it to go
C
I would hold it up to my cold heart
                          D
Feel the way it used to start
G
Take me back, take me back
                            D
To the way that I was before
C
Hungry for what was to come
                               D
Now I'm longing for the way I was

Chorus:
G
You say you will, say you will save me
                                      D
You say you will, say you will save me
C
You say you will, say you will save me
C
You say you will, say you will
Bm           C
Take me back, give it up, give it up to me
Em                  D                     Bm
'Cause I can't go on if your love isn't strong
              C                               Em
I want it all, give me, give me all your love
                  D
But if you can't hold on
            Bm          C         Em D
Then baby, baby, don't save me now
If your love isn't strong
Bm           C       Em D
Baby, don't save me now

All my life I wasn't trying to get on a highway
I was wondering which way to go
Spending all of my damn time (Damn time)
Leaving all the weight behind
Take me back, take, take, take me back
To the song, how'd it used to go-oh?
Screaming for what was to come
Now I'm dreaming 'bout the way I was

You say, you say you will save me
You say, you say you will save me
You say, you say you will save me
You say, you say you will, oh-oh

Chorus

C                                Em C
And if I had to beg for your love
                        Em C
Would it ever be enough?
                                 Em C
And if I had to beg for your love
Would it ever be enough?
 Bm             C
So baby, don't save me
 Bm             C
No baby, don't save me
Bm           C       Em  D
Baby, don't save me now (if your love isn't strong)
Bm             C        Em  D
No baby, don't save me now (if your love isn't
strong)

So, baby, don't save me
No, baby, don't save me

Chorus:
Baby, don't save me now (Again, and again)
No, no (If your love isn't strong)
Baby, don't save me now (Again, and again)
No, no (If your love isn't strong)
Baby, don't save me now (Again, and again)
No, no (If your love isn't strong)
Baby, don't save me now (Again, and again)
No, no (If your love isn't strong)

(Again, and again, and again, and a—)
Don't save me
(Again, and again, and again, and a—)
Don't save me
(Again, and again, and again, and a—)
(Again, and again, and again, and a—))
