Fmaj7 Dm I'm clinging onto you so tight, I know it hurts just a little Fmaj7 Dm You say, "We will be alright", but I have my doubts Gm7 C But it's better to be holding you while you pass through Gm7 Csus4 C Than not holding you at all Fmaj7 Dm An elephant is in the room, don't look, and don't try to feed it Fmaj7 Dm You always want me on your terms, you can't have your cake and eat it Chorus: A# F I don't want you to go without me A# A#m Am7 Dsus4 D But when you do, won't you put yourself in my shoes? A# 'Cause I know this feeling C I'm so tired of being left behind Fmaj7 Dm Left behind, left behind Fmaj7 Dm Everytime Awake in bed, in my own head, one day rolls into another You look like you've been having fun, at least that's what I told my mother Maybe it's better to not have someone at all Then no one else can let you down when they forget to call And I keep having this weird dream where you're going off to war And I'm just left there in the kitchen, staring at the door I think I'm done with this 'Cause if you've got no one, at least you've got no one to miss Is it better to be holdin' you while you pass through Or not holdin' you at all? Chorus: I don't want you to go without me But when you do, won't you put yourself in my shoes? Because I know this feelin' I'm so tired of dreamin' that you're not leavin' Oh, I'm so tired of being left behind Left behind, left behind Everytime, left behind You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA# A#m Am7 C Csus4 D Dm Dsus4 F Fmaj7 Gm7 Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
