Intro:
AmCGDmAmC G(hold)
Verse:
AmC
You leave a trail of my broken tears,
DmG
Empty words for me to fall,
AmC
Broadway at dark is where you left my heart,
DmG
Love is cursed in a bar,
AmC
Now I can't get up, Now I can't get down
DmG
With all the games that you play,
AmC
You shut me up and you shut me out,
DmG
It's all the same, nothing's changed,
Pre-Chorus:
AmC
Got me on the ledge where you keep me waiting,
DmG
Standing on the edge and I'm begging, begging,
AmCDm
I can't read your mind, won't you help me draw the line?
Chorus:
DmAm
Save my life, set me free,
CG
These lonely nights are haunting me,
DmAm
Cut me out from the cold,
CG
This young heart is getting old,
DmAm
Save my life, set me free,
CG
Yes or no is all I need,
DmAmC
You don't want me, darling, let me know,
Just say goodbye and I'll go,
Interlude:
AmCDmGVerse:

See, you just keep me hard-up,
AmCDm
Watch the minutes stare, they pass me by,
G
Watch the hours flare, push the throttle,
Pre-Chorus:
AmC
Got me on the ledge where you keep me waiting,
DmG
Standing on the edge and I'm begging, begging,
AmCDmG
I can't read your mind, won't you help me draw the line?

I try to fight it,

You hold on to me,
It just ain't right,

I hold on to you,

Make up your mind,

Hold on to you,
I ain't got time,
