[Verse]
A Amaj7
Before you go walk out on me
Em7 A7 D
Take a look around tell me what you see
A Amaj7
Here I stand like an open book
Em7 A7 D
Is there something here you might have overlooked?
D E A
'Cause it would be a shame if you should leave
Bm E A
And find that freedom ain't what you thought it would be
[Verse]
A Amaj7
The years we had were not all bad
Em7 A7 D
In fact I know the good outweighed the bad
A Amaj7
And now you say that you've grown tired
Em7 A7 D
You want to be by yourself a while
D E A
But it would be a shame if you should go
Bm E A
And find that freedom was a long time ago
[Middle 8]
D E A
I know that you can't stand the chains to bind you
Bm7 E A
But they just keep on drivin' us apart
D E A
And you could go where I could never find you
E/G#F#m A/C# D/E E7 E9EE7
( )
But could you go far enough to get away from your heart?

[Verse]
A Amaj7
So, one more time, for ol' times sake
Em7 A7 D
Come and lay your head upon my chest
A Amaj7
Please don't throw this moment away
Em7 A7 D
We can forget the bad and take the best
D E A E/G#
But if you don't have nothing else to say
Bm E A
[ ]
Let me hold you one more time for ol' times sake
