Stay Down Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]There's a bitterness
in the [F]air[Am]
When did you lose [F]all [Am]your care
I don't wanna hear you
speak no more
'Cause every word leaves
my [F]heart [Am]red raw

[Verse 2]
Another [Am]chance to tell me [Em]that you're [Am]right[F]
I try and bury away all [Am]your spite
You keep on saying that you [Em]want
[Am]to stay[F]
But something's telling me
[Dm]you're afraid of being lonely

[Verse 3]
[Dm](Pre- 1)
Faced [Am]with all your is[Bm]sues
[B]With no one to pick up the pie[Dm]ces
To [Am]tell you everything's al[Bm]right
And [Dm]have [Esus4]you thrown back
in my face
[Am]

[Verse 4]
[Em]
You wanna [F]stay [Dm]down so
you won't [Am]fall[Em]
Lying [F]on the ground
[Dm]So nothing at al[Am]l can make you we[Em]ak
I will [F]stay in the dark for you
[Dm]to take it out on me[Am][Em]
Yeah
[F]

[Verse 5]
[Am]
Thinking why do you want me [F]around
You get defensive [Am]and
just shot me down
Maybe you just [Em]need a hand to [F]hold
I'd touch you [Am]but you're freezing cold

[Verse 6]
Why don't you [Em]let yourself
be happy [F]here
Make that effort, come on,
be sin[Am]cere
'Cause you don't mean all
[Em]of the things yo[F]u say
Why [C]do you [F]let yourself

[Verse 7]
get in the way?
[Dm](Pre- 2)
Your freedom
[Am]Emancipate yourself [Bm]from this whole
[B]world you got yourself [Dm]into
[Am]This time you've gone way too [Em]far
[Am]Trying to hurt[Em] me 'cause
you [Am]can[Em]

[Verse 8]
You wanna [F]stay [Dm]down so
you won't [Am]fall[Em]
Lying [F]on the ground
[Dm]So nothing at al[Am]l can make you we[Em]ak
I will [F]stay in the dark for you
[Dm]to take it out on me[Am][Em]
Yeah
[F]

[Verse 9]
[Dm]
(Bridge)
Walking further [Am]in to th[Bm]e darkness
[B](Can you hear me cal[Am]ling you[Dm]?)
You say you [F]just don't
[Am]know how hard it [Bm]is
[Am](To walk in your[Dm] shoes)

[Verse 10]
Oh, [Am]but don't you want to get [Bm]better?
Get [B]out of this big black [Dm]hole
[Am]The one you dug yourself into
[Bm]And [Am]devoured all of your soul

[Verse 11]
[Em]
You want [F]to stay [Dm]down so
you won't [Am]fall[Em]
Lying [F]on the ground
[Dm]So nothing at al[Am]l can make you we[Em]ak
I [F]will stay in the dark for you
[Dm]to take it out on me

[Outro 1]
[Am][Em][F]
