[Intro]
C/G Fmaj7 G x2
[Verse 1]
C/G Fmaj7 G
Tell me why it hurts so much
C/G Fmaj7 G
I've been just like a baby crying for your touch
Dm G C/G F
And that's alright, and that's okay
Am C/B C G
I wanted you to stay
C/G Fmaj7 G

C/G Fmaj7 G
Baby, how'd it get so bad?
C/G Fmaj7 G
Gave you all like you never had
Dm G C/G F
You took my love and went away
Am C/B C G
I wanted you to stay

[Verse 3]
C/G Fmaj7 G
Paradise in a pair of shoes
C/G Fmaj7 G
You wore high-heeled reds, I wore high-heeled blues
Dm G C/G F
I'm so confused by the things you say
Am C/B C G
I wanted you to stay
C/G Fmaj7 G
[Verse 4]

Springtime comes and the robins fly
C/G Fmaj7 G
Don't know how to live or die
Dm G C/G F
For another night and another day
Am C/B C G
I wanted you to stay
C/G Fmaj7 G x2
