D#           G#               D#
I was on the outside when you said
                    G# D#
You said you needed me
                 G#
I was looking on at myself
       D#                 G#
I was blind, I could not see

A boy tries hard to be a man
His mother takes him by his hand
If he stops to think, he starts to cry
Oh, why?

Chorus:
       D#
If you walk away, walk away
  G#                  D#
I walk away, walk away
        G#
I will follow
        D#
If you walk away, walk away
   G#                 D#
I walk away, walk away
        G#
I will follow

I was on the inside
When they pulled the four walls down
I was looking through the window
I was lost, I am found

Chorus

 D#m   A#         D#m  A# C# D#m
Your eyes make a circle
   F#                D#m     F# D#m
I see you when I come in here
     A# C#    D#m        A# C# D#m
It's your eyes, it's your eyes
     A# C# D#m      A#m C#   D# B D# G# C#
Your eyes,    your, your eyes

Chorus:
       D#
If you walk away, walk away
  G#                  D#
I walk away, walk away
        G#
I will follow
        D#
If you walk away, walk away
   G#                 D#
I walk away, walk away
        G#
I will follow
D#      G#   D#        G#
I will follow, I will follow
D#      G#    D#       G#
I will follow, I will follow
D#
Follow
