Intro -x2-: FmBbEbAbVerse 1:
EbBb
Now we reached the end
CmAb
I ran the marathon
EbBb
The road had many bends
FmCm
But we knew that all along
EbBb
I think it made me stronger
FmAb
But I would rather not
EbBbAb
Betray myself, just to keep your love at any cost
Pre-Chorus:
FmAbCm
And it's most tempting to give in
BbFm
When you hear the firin' shots
AbCm
When you're steps from winning back
BbFm - Ab - CmBb
All the happiness you lo-o-o-ost, lo-o-o-o-ost
Fm - Ab -CmBb
Lo-o-o-ost, lo-o-o-o-ost
Chorus:
FmBbEbAb
With every careless action you let me slip away
FmBbEbAb
If you just bought me flowers, maybe I would've stayed
FmBbEbAb
You didn't think I was serious, I guess you felt so safe
FmBbEbAb
If you just bought mе flowers, maybe I would've stayеd
Post-Chorus:
EbBbAb
Maybe I would've stayed
EbBbAb
Maybe I would've stayed
Verse 2:
EbBb
The seeds we planted grew
CmAb
But not like roses do
EbBb
We had the thorns and leaves
FmCm
But the buds, they never bloomed
EbBb
And now my future gleams
FmAb
With colors bold and bright
EbBb
In a home that's filled with love and hope
Ab
And a life that just feels right
Pre-Chorus:
Fm - Ab - Cm
And it's most tempting to give in
BbFm
When you're almost at the top
- Ab - Cm
When you're steps from winning back
BbFm - Ab - CmBb
All the happiness you lo-o-o-ost, lo-o-o-o-ost
Fm - Ab - CmBb
Lo-o-o-ost, lo-o-o-o-ost
Chorus:
FmBbEbAb
With every careless action you let me slip away
FmBbEbAb
If you just bought me flowers, maybe I would've stayed
FmBbEbAb
You didn't think I was serious, I guess you felt so safe
FmBbEbAb
If you just bought mе flowers, maybe I would've stayеd
Post-Chorus:
EbBbAb
Maybe I would've stayed
EbBbAb
Maybe I would've stayed
EbBbAb
I wouldn't have walked away
EbBbAb
I wouldn't have walked away
Bridge:
Fm
And there's no heartbreak left to feel
CmBb
It happened years ago
Fm
After you made your choices
CmBb
I melted away like snow
FmAb
'Cause you like lying to yourself
CmBb
And now I'll never know
Fm
What parts of your love were for real
CmBb
And what parts were for show
Chorus:
FmBbEbAb
With every careless action you let me slip away
FmBbEbAb
If you just bought me flowers, maybe I would've stayed
FmBbEbAb
You didn't think I was serious, I guess you felt so safe
FmBbEbAb
If you just bought mе flowers, maybe I would've stayеd
Post-Chorus:
EbBbAb
Maybe I would've stayed
EbBbAb
Maybe I would've stayed
EbBbAb
I wouldn't have walked away
EbBbAb
I wouldn't have walked away
