 C                   G
Here I come again I don't really care to turn back
  Dm
Tryin' to follow your directions
       F                  G
But I seem to be losin' track

C
I believe we ought to make a run for it
         G
Just to see how far we can go
   Dm
I ain't just around for the fun of it
       F                   G
But until you try it baby you'll never know so

Chorus:
 C                  G
Say you love me or say goodnight
Dm                    F           G
Say we've made up or on with the fight
              C                     G
Cause there's no love lyin' in the eyes of the night
  Dm                   F       C
So say you love me or say goodnight

There's no use hangin' on a memory
No good livin' a lie
I got no use for mediocrity
You know tonight's the night
We either do it or die

Chorus - x2
