STANDARD TUNING, CAPO 1st FRET
Intro and Verse Riff goes between G and a quick change to Dsus then back to the G
GI've got my mind on you,
GAnd I don't know what to do
'Cause it's been sCo long since I've felt like we're oGkay
BDaby I just wanna know whCat is gunna make you sGtay
I've had my Gmind on you,
Well over a Gyear I knew
That you were driCfting down a separate road than Gme
DI just wanna know if her Cloves enough to make you Gstay
You'll never Cknow, how much this kills me evGery day
I've been trDying but I dCon't know what to do or sGay.
So please don't Cgo, you know it'll never be the Gsame
But baby your Dso far gone, is my lCove enough to make you sGtay?
I've had my mGind on us,
But it never sGeems to be enough
I've been seaCrching for a way to walk aGway
But I kDnow inside my heart that her Cloves to much, I've got to sGtay
You'll never kCnow, how much this kills me every Gday,
I've been trDying but I dCon't know what to do or Gsay.
So please don't Cgo, you know it'll never be the Gsame
But baby your sDo far gone, is my Clove enough to make you Emstay?
Ya baby, your sDo far gone, is my Clove enough to make you Gstay?
