B                   E
By myself sometimes, to give my mind some space
                                              G#m
Yeah I know, yeah I know that it hurts when I push your love away
I hate myself, I wanna tell you lies, so your heart won't break
Yeah I know, yeah I know that I made my fair share of mistakes

B        E
Sometimes I don't know why you love me
        G#m
Sometimes  I don't know why you care
B      E
Take me with the good and the ugly
                  G#m
Say I'm not goin' anywhere

Chorus:
B                            E
Take me as I am, swear I'll do the best I can
                  G#m
Say I'm not goin' anywhere
B                            E
Take me as I am, swear I'll do the best I can
                  G#m
Say I'm not goin' anywhere

A thousand miles apart, yeah,
you're the one that holds my heart
It's no surprise, and I tell you all the time
And when life gets way too hard,
I'll meet you in the stars
You know I will
I'll keep you near (Mmm),
as I wipe away your tears (Mmm), yes

Sometimes, I don't know why you love me
Sometimes, I don't know why you care
Take me with the good and the ugly
Say, "I'm not goin' anywhere"

Chorus:
Take me as I am, swear I'll do the best I can
Say, "I'm not goin' anywhere" (Yeah)
Take me as I am, swear I'll do the best I can
Say, "I'm not goin' anywhere"

           B
You were there for me when I was actin' selfish
          E
And you prayed for me when I was out of faith
You believed in me when ain't nobody else did
        G#m
It's a miracle you didn't run away

You were there for me when I was actin' selfish
And you prayed for me when I was out of faith
You believed in me when ain't nobody else did
It's a miracle you didn't run away

Sometimes, I don't know why you love me
Sometimes, I don't know why you care
Take me with the good and the ugly
Say, "I'm not goin' anywhere"
