[Intro]
E B A Am
[Verse 1]
E                                          B/G#
I choose me, and I know that’s selfish, love
                                            A
You are a dream, and I can’t thank you enough
But I give another piece of me away
Am
Every waking day that I’m with you
E                                                B/G#
Am I a monster? What will your family think of me?
                                                    A
They brought me in, they helped me out with everything
But I give a little piece of me away
Am
Every single day
[Chorus]
E                                                 B/G#
So I pick up the pieces, I get on the midnight train
                                           A
I got my reasons, but darling I can’t explain
I’ll always love you
Am
But tonight’s the night I choose to walk away
E                          B/G#
Bah-bah, doo, bah-bah, doo
                           A Am
Bah-bah, doo, bah-bah, doo
[Verse 2]
E                                        B/G#
Love you so much that I have to let you go
                                               A
I’ll miss your touch and the secrets we both know
But it would be wrong for me to stay
Am
And I’ll just give you hope
[Chorus]
E                                                 B/G#
So I pick up the pieces, I get on the midnight train
                                           A
I got my reasons, but darling I can’t explain
I’ll always love you
Am
But tonight’s the night I choose to walk away
E                                                  B/G#
I can’t stop crying, I hate that I’ve caused you pain
                                              A
But I can’t deny it, I just don’t feel the same
I’ll always love you
Am
But tonight’s the night I choose to walk away
E                          B/G#
Run back, Run back to you
                           A Am
Run back, Run back to you
E                                                B/G#
So I pick up the pieces, I get on the midnight train
                                           A
I got my reasons, but darling I can’t explain
I’ll always love you
Am                                 Emaj7
But tonight’s the night I choose to walk away
