Capo 1
[Intro]
C   F   Am   G   C
[Verse]
Well when I'm the reason you get mad
Consider when you never had
A reason to be quite so angry for it all.
And when you're the reason I get red
I'll consider throwing you to bed
As well as all the times when I got nothing much at all.
[Chorus]
But Amdon'Gt walk Caway, and I Amwon'Gt walk Caway.
[Verse]
Well, when Cwe're the reason you get scared
ConsFider that we've never fared
AmBetter than the fights in Gwhich we gave our all.
And wheCn you're the reason I get cross
I'll conFsider that we never lost 
The Amwish to make things right when it Gmattered most of all.
[Chorus]
But Amdon'Gt walk Caway, and I Amwon'Gt walk Caway.
[Verse]
Well when CI'm the reason you get mean
ConsFider if you'd never seen
That Ambunch of flowers twice the height what GI thought we could find.
And when Cwe're the reason you must leave
FPromise, girl, that you'll believe
YourAmself and not my stuttered pleas for Gyou to change your mind.
[Chorus]
But Amdon'Gt walk Caway, and I Amwon'Gt walk Caway.
[Bridge]
C   F   Am   G
C   F   Am   G
Am  G   C
C   G   C
[Verse]
But Cif I ever wonder why
I Flove you
Just Amopen up one bright brown eye and GI will surely find.
That the Cway I feel inside will sure
ReFmind me who it is that makes
The Ambutterflies within my stomach Gtwist and turn and dive.
[Chorus]
But Amdon'Gt walk Caway, and I Amwon'Gt walk Caway.
