D         A                Bm
See the stone set in your eyes
          G                  D
See the thorn twist in your side
   A        Bm  G
I wait for you

D           A                Bm
Sleight of hand and twist of fate
             G                  D
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
       A       Bm      G
And I wait, without you

Chorus:
            D      A
With or without you
            Bm     G
With or without you

Through the storm, we reach the shore
You give it all but I want more
And I'm waiting for you

Chorus:
            D      A
With or without you
           Bm         G
With or without you ahah
         D  A
I can’t live
            Bm     G
With or without you

         D              A
And you give yourself away
         Bm             G
And you give yourself away
         D
And you give
         A
And you give
         Bm             G
And you give yourself away

My hands are tied, my body bruised
She got me with nothing to win
And nothing left to lose

And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away

Chorus:
With or without you
With or without you oh-oh
I can’t live
With or without you

With or without you
With or without you ahah
I can’t live
With or without you
With or without you
