           Cm
I've been trying to tell you something
         D#
But you never understand
   Fm                                   G#
I feel like we've been going around in circles
     Cm                             D#
You look at me like I've become a stranger
on the street
   Fm                                  D#
A skeleton that's been hiding in your closet

  G#                                 A#
I see you next to me, but still you feel so far away
 Cm
Where did we go wrong? (Where did we go wrong?)
   G#                              A#                      G
I guess this is the part where you look at me and say goodbye

Chorus:
Cm                  G#
Don't, don't let me go

It's not the end, whoa
                 Cm  G#
No, it's not the end

I've been around the world and I've seen so many things
I can't even tell you where I'm going
But no matter where I'm heading and no matter what I do
Something keeps me coming back to you

I see you next to me, but still you feel so far away
Where did we go wrong? (Where did we go wrong?)
I guess this is the part where you look at me and say goodbye

Chorus:
Don't, don't let me go
It's not the end, whoa
Girl, you know it's not so bad
It's not the end, whoa
No, it's not the end
Don't, don't let me go
It's not the end, whoa
Girl, you know it's not so bad
It's not the end, whoa
No, it's not the end

           G#             A#
What can I do when you're gone
         C#   Cm   A#
When it feels so wrong?
 Cm        G#
What can I say
    A#              Cm
To make you wanna stay?
    D#   D  Cm G#
So what can I do?
                    A#
Don't leave me this way
           C#   Cm  A#
'Cause it feels so wrong
       Cm             G#
Let's stop all these games
          A#                G
'Cause I just can't say goodbye

Chorus:
Don't, don't let me go
It's not the end, whoa
Girl, you know it's not so bad
It's not the end, whoa
No, it's not the end
Don't, don't let me go
It's not the end, whoa
Girl, you know it's not so bad
It's not the end, whoa
No, it's not the end
