Verse 
     G               D               G 
If I don't owe you a favor you don't know me 
  C                             G 
I don't believe we've ever even met 
   Em               D              C 
If there's a god in heaven you can show me 
      C                               D* 
And I guess I should admit I lost the bet 

          C               D*       G 
There are moments I could hold you forever 
              Em           D              C 
And there are moments that lasted way too long 
          G         C                D* 
There are days I've changed with the weather 
   C 
To hold you in place would be wrong 

          Cadd9                        D*         G 
There's a road left behind me that I'd rather not speak of 
      Em        D          C 
And a hard one ahead of me too 
  G        C            D* 
I love you whatever you do 
    C 
But I've got a life to live too 

  G           C               G 
I never met a morning I could get through 
     Em            D                  C 
With nothing on my breath to hold the night 
      G              C           D* 
And I never said I'm sorry but I meant to 
  C 
I never met a coward I don't like 

          C             D*            G 
There are reasons why a body stays in motion 
           Em          D              C 
But at the moment only demons come to mind 
          G            C             D* 
There are days I could walk into the ocean 
     C 
With no one else but you to leave behind 

          Cadd9                        G          D 
There's a road left behind me that I'd rather not speak of 
      Em        D          C 
And a hard one ahead of me too 
  G            C        D* 
I love you whatever you do 
    C 
But I've got a life to live too 

          Cadd9                        G          D 
There's a road left behind me that I'd rather not speak of 
      Em        D          C 
And a hard one ahead of me too 
  G            C        D* 
I love you whatever you do 
    C                       Em 
But I've got a life to live too 

  G            C        D 
I love you whatever you do 
    Cadd9 
But I've got a life to live too
