D                               F#m
Everybody needs a little time away
             G
I heard her say
          Bm A
From each other
D                       F#m
Even lovers need a holiday
G                  Bm A
Far away from each other

Bm       Em
Hold me now
      A                      D
It's hard for me to say I'm sorry
Bm      Em         Asus4 A
I just want you to stay

Chorus:
D     G/B                 A/C#
After all that we've been trough
F#/A#          Bm       Bm/A
I will make it up to you
E/G# A
I promise to
D          G/B            A/C#
And after all that's been said and done
       F#/A#     Bm     Bm/A
You're just the part of me
E/G#     A
I can't let go

Couldn't stand to be kept away
Just for the day
From your body
Wouldn't want to be swept away
Far away from the one that I love

Hold me now
It's hard for me to say I'm sorry
I just want you to know

Hold me now
I really want to tell you I'm sorry
I could never let you go

Chorus:
After all that we've been through
I will make it up to you
I promise to
And after all that's been said and done
You're just a part of me I can't let go

After all that we've been through
I will make it up to you
I promise to
And after all that's been said and done
You're just a part of me I can't let go

You're gonna be the lucky one
Everybody needs a little time away
I heard her say
