Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][G][D][C][D][C][D][C]
[D][C]

[Verse 1]
And when I [C]see
the sign [Bb]that points one [F]way[Fm]
A lot I [C]used [Em]to pass [F]by [C]every [G]day

[Verse 2]
[C]
Just walk [Am]away Rene
You [F]won't see me follow
[C]you [G]back [C]home
The empty side[Am]walks on [G]my [F]block
are not the [Em]same[F]
You're not to blame
[C]

[Verse 3]
Your name and mine [F]in [C]side
a [Bb]heart upon a [F]wall[Fm]
Still finds a [C]way to [F]haunt
me, though they're so small
[G]

[Verse 4]
[C]
Just walk [Am]away Rene
[G]You won[F]'t see me follow
[C]you back [G]home[C]
Now as the [Am]rain beats down
[G]upon [F]my wea[Em]ry eye[F]s

[Interlude 1]
For me, it cries
[C][D][C][Am][F][D]
[F][G][C][G][C][G][C][G][C]

[Verse 5]
From deep in[G]side,
the [C]tears that [Bb]I'm forced [F]to hide
[Fm]From deep in[C]side,
the tears [F]that I'm forced to [G]cry

[Verse 6]
[C]
Just walk [Em]away [C]Rene
You [F]won't see me follow
you [C]back [G]home[C]
The empty [G]side[Am]walks on [G]my [F]block
are not the [Em]same[F]

[Outro 1]
You're not to blame
[C][D][C]
[D][C][D][C][G][C][D][C]
[C]
