[Verse 1]
[E]I k[Am]now y[E]ou[Am][E]
think that I [F]should stay
[Am]But [Dm]I'm t[Am]hinking a[E]bout
running [F]away[Am][Dm]
[Am]I know[E] it's what I always [F]do
[Am]So n[Dm]ow, i[Am]t's time t[E]o think
[F]Maybe [Am]the blame will lay with you
What would [E]it take?
Be careful [F]what you say,
or [Am]I might go [Dm]away
[Am]What would it brea[E]k?
For [F]you to try [Am]an d find
the [Dm]reas[Am]on why
Make no [E]mistake
All the [F]nights alone,
I am [Am]never com[Dm]ing [Am]home
What would it [E]take?
And [F]you will cry,
this is [Am]not the way it has to go
[E]Can it ever be too [F]late to
[Am]change?[Dm][Am]
When you [E]realize you've
made [F]the wrong choice
[Am]Can [Dm]it ev[Am]er be[E] too late
[F]to cha[Am]nge?[Dm]
[Am]When you sud[E]denly hear,
you suddenly [Dm]hear [F]the voi[Am]ce inside you say[Dm]
[Am]What would it [E]take?
Be careful [F]what you say,
or [Am]I might go aw[Dm]ay
[Am]What would it break?[E]
For [F]you to try, [Am]and find the r[Dm]easo[Am]n why
Make no [E]mistake
All the [F]nights alone,
I am [Am]never com[Dm]ing [Am]home
What would it [E]take?
And you [F]will cry,
this is [Am]not the way it has t[Dm]o go[E][E][Am]
[E]Do you ever find [F]yourself alone, [E]just [Dm]star[Am]ing a[E]t the telephone,
[Dm]do y[F]ou c[Am]lose[Dm] you[G]r ey[Am]es a[E]nd
may[F]be [Am]pray, [Dm]that she's[Am] not going t[E]o call,
[Dm]not go[F]ing [Am]to call again today?
[G]Wha[Am]t would it [E]take?
Be careful [F]what you say,
or [Am]I might go aw[Dm]ay
[Am]What would it br[E]eak?
For [F]you to try, and [Am]find the [Dm]reason why
[Am]Make no mistake[E]
All the [F]nights alone,
I am [Am]never com[Dm]ing [Am]home
What would it [E]take?
And [F]you will cry, this is [Am]not the way it has t[G]o [Dm]go
[Am][E][F][Am][E][Dm][Am][E][F]
[Am][Dm]
[Am]Do you e[E]ver just s[F]it and think
[Am]When [Dm]you'r[Am]e al[E]one
with another [F]drink?[Am][Dm]
[Am]Would it absol[E]utely ruin your [F]life, just[Am] for o[Dm]nce [Am]to t[E]ake,
[F]for once [Am]to take someb[Dm]ody's advi[Am]ce?
What would it [E]take?[F][Am][F][Dm]
[Am]What would [E]it [F]break?[Am][Dm]
[Am]Make no [E]mistake[F][Am][Dm]
[Am]What would it [E]take?[F][Am]
[Dm]What[Am] good would it t[E]ake?
Be careful [F]what you say,
or [Am]I might go aw[Dm]ay
[Am]What good woul[E]d it break?
For [F]you to try, and [Am]find the [Dm]reaso[Am]n why
Make no [E]mistake
All the [F]nights alone,
I am never [Am]com i[Dm]ng h[Am]ome
What good would [E]it take?
And [F]you will cry, this is [Am]not the way it h[Dm]as to
[Am]go
