[Verse]
You don't have to lie about where you've Cbeen
We both know you've been sAmchemin'
So why don't you give your little vFoice a rest
Climb on up inside my bed, and just pretend you Amneed me
You don't have to lie about what you kCnow
We both know you've been Amsufferin'
And I don't need to be your Fonly one
And I don't need your comfortin'
I just need you Amwith me
[Chorus]
Stay, Stay, FStay with me
Stay, stay with Amme
Stay, and don't you ever run Faway from me
Stay, stay with Amme
[Verse]
Oh,and if she ever let's you Cdown
After she has run out of your Ammoney
Well then just crawl on back to Fme
I'm the one that sets you free
And I'm the one that Amneeds you
And if she ever let's you gCo
We both know what you're Amneedin'
And if you need somewhere to Frest
Somewhere to lay your head
You'll know where to find Gme
[Chorus]
Stay, Stay, Stay with mFe
Stay, stay with Amme
Stay, and don't you ever run Faway from me
Stay, stay with Amme
[Verse]
And if you need somewhere to Frest
Somewhere to lay your Chead
 you know where to find Dmme
Stay with Fme!
(this part repeats several times) (as Chorus)
NC
I can't live another day
I won't live another day without you baby!
Stay with me!
Turn down the Cheadlights. Empty the Amashtrays
Sweep out of the Fairway, what's left of our tGime
Oh, you can use my Ambody to
Do what you have Fto, but stay a little Glonger, stay with Cme

[Verse]

You don't have to lie about where you've been

We both know you've been schemin'

So why don't you give your little voice a rest

Climb on up inside my bed, and just pretend you need me

You don't have to lie about what you know

We both know you've been sufferin'

And I don't need to be your only one

And I don't need your comfortin'

I just need you with me

[Chorus]

Stay, Stay, Stay with me

Stay, stay with me

Stay, and don't you ever run away from me

Stay, stay with me

[Verse]

Oh,and if she ever let's you down

After she has run out of your money

Well then just crawl on back to me

I'm the one that sets you free

And I'm the one that needs you

And if she ever let's you go

We both know what you're needin'

And if you need somewhere to rest

Somewhere to lay your head

You'll know where to find me

[Chorus]

Stay, Stay, Stay with me

Stay, stay with me

Stay, and don't you ever run away from me

Stay, stay with me

[Verse]

And if you need somewhere to rest

Somewhere to lay your head

you know where to find me

Stay with me!

(this part repeats several times) (as Chorus)

I can't live another day

I won't live another day without you baby!

Stay with me!

C Am

Turn down the headlights. Empty the ashtrays

F G

Sweep out of the airway, what's left of our time

Oh, you can use my body to

F G C

Do what you have to, but stay a little longer, stay with me
