      CAPO 4

    C              F               C             Am
I'm giving up, I'm going home, I'm leaving you behind

  C              F                Am            F
A sorry suit, no substitute, I've never been so tired

     C               F               Am              C
I've tried before, I wanted more, no matter what you had

        Dm           C    Em      F                                   C
If only you, you you you. You you you would have the heart to take it back

        Dm           C    Em      F                                C
If only you, you you you. You you you would ever have the heart to ask.

    C                    F                C                 Am
And now you've said, too many times, that trouble's walking by.

     C                F                 Am         F                 
I've met them once or twice before, but never so unkind.

     C                 F               Am              C
I'll stand aside, I'll walk behind, no matter what you had

        Am           C    Em      F                                   C
If only you, you you you. You you you would have the heart to take it back

        Am           C    Em      F                               G
If only you, you you you. You you you would ever have the mind to ask.

Dm                         Am
No, don't I know. that I've been this way before.

E                          F       C
I'd find my way out of any game of yours.

Dm                       Am
You can't deny when it's me you're thinking of
      
G                           G7
And I'll play along just to give it up.

   C               F             C             Am
So now I know I've said hello to Jekyll and to Hyde

    C            F                   Am           F
The trouble is I still can't say who I want by my side

C               F                   Am            F
Truth be told I love them both, and I'm no better half.

        Am           C    Em      F                                   C
If only you, you you you. You you you would have the heart to take it back

        Am           C    Em      F                                G      G7     C
If only you, you you you. You you you would ever have the heart to ask.
