Well it started at a party
                  C#m
I never knew your name
                   Asus2
You never knew mine either
                                B
But there was something about your face
                        E
And you decided to come over
                        C#m
And I think it started there
                   Asus2
You said “I really like you”
                               B
And there was something in the air

And then the party ended
We were all alone
We lay there talking for hours
And then I walked you home
Then you kissed me in the garden
I picked you out a rose
You said, "I think I love you"
And that's when my body froze (froze)
And I said:

Chorus:
E
"Never leave me broken hearted
 C#m
Baby I’m not strong enough
      Asus2                                B
Don’t ever please don’t ever, ever let me go"
                 Asus2
You said "baby I won’t"
                  B
You Said "Baby I won't

But today you acted different
I asked if you were alright
You said "yeah, trust me, I'm okay"
And then you put your lips on mine
That's when I realised
Your eyes are full of lies
You wanna fuck me for the story
You wanna take me for the ride
Oh, oh, oh

Chorus:
Never leave me broken hearted
Baby, I'm not strong enough
Don't ever please don't ever, ever let me go, no
Oh, never leave me broken hearted
Baby, I'm not strong enough
Don't ever, please don't ever, ever let me go
And you said, "baby, I won't"
You said, "baby, I won't"
You said, "baby, I won't"
You said, "baby, I won't"

                 Asus2
You Said "Baby I won't"
                  B
You Said "Baby I won't"
                 Asus2
You Said "Baby I won't"
                 B
You Said "Baby, Baby I won't"

Chorus:
Never leave me broken hearted
Baby, I'm not strong enough
Don't ever please don't ever, ever let me go, oh, oh
You said, "baby, I won't"
You said, "baby, I won't"
You said, "baby, I won't"

Oh, my god!
Really regret deciding to do that
