[Intro 1]
[G][D][G][D][G][D][F#m]
[D](Roll it) Say it's not

[Verse 1]
[G]
so
[D]Say your heart [A]it wrote [D]me
letters [F#m]all th[D]e ti[G]me
Say [D]it sealed [A]them up [D]and with
[G]your [F#m]breath [G]did sing
Them [D]all away

[Verse 2]
Say that [G]your notes
They were [D]no for[A]gery,
[D]you meant [F#m]them e[G]very line
Some [D]in meter, [A]some [F#m]in verse,[D]
and [F#m]some i[G]n rhyme
Tell me you meant [D]every word

[Verse 3]
You [F#m]could cut my knees and
leave me [A]at [F#m]the do[G]or
I'd still [F#m]pick all your memories
[D]off our [G]dusty floor
If [F#m]you'd [A]stay[F#m][G]
If [A]you'd [F#m]stay

[Interlude 1]
[G]

[Verse 4]
[F#m]Darling, [D]jus[F#m]t a litt[G]le whil[D]e
Darling, [F#m]just a l[G]ittle w[D]hile
Darling, [F#m]just a l[G]ittle w[D]hile
[F#m][D][F#m][D]

[Verse 5]
And tell [F#m]me how[G] you are
And I'll [D]write a song [A]for every
[D]feeling [F#m]I can'[G]t name
Like we [D]were dancing in
a fucking blood [G]ballet
It was a massacre
[D]

[Verse 6]
How'd you [F#m]get aw[G]ay
'Cause [D]oh, good heavens we
[A]abi[D]ded by the[F#m] night[G]
But there [D]are [F#m]darker [A]things
[D]than the absence [G]of light
And they still creak through [D]our halls

[Verse 7]
I [F#m]would build a city out of [D]you [G]and me
There would [D]be [F#m]crime,
but still a local [D]gro[G]cery
If [A]you'd [F#m]stay[G]
[F#m]If you'd stay
[G]

[Verse 8]
[D]Darling, [F#m]just a[G] little wh[D]ile
[F#m]Darling, [D]just [G]a little w[D]hile
Darling, [F#m]just a[G] little while
[D][F#m][D][G]

[Verse 9]
[D]Oo [F#m]h a litt[G]le while
[D]Oo [F#m]h a litt[G]le while
[D]Oo [F#m]h a litt[G]le while
[F#m]Darlin[F#m]g, just a[D] little[G] while
