  			Verse 1: 
F 
Back and forth that voice of yours 
C 
Keeps me up at night 
F 
Help me search to find the words 
     C 
That eat you up inside 
       F 
I go side to side like the wildest eyes 
C 
In your hurricaine 
       F 
And I only hide what is on my mind 
  C 
Because I can't explain 
 
Chorus: 
          Bb                 | 
What if I do, Lord?          | 
                             | 
         Am                  | 
What if I don't?             | 
                             |  X 2 
             Ab              | 
I'd have to lose everything  | 
                             | 
        C                    | 
Just to find you             | 
 
Verse 2: 
F 
It's my turn this soul won't burn 
   C  
So throw me in the fire 
F 
Trophies earned and lessons learned 
    C  
And wicked little lies 
         F 
We could pave new roads with the cold grave stones 
    C  
And wind them through the pines 
F 
Should I stay or should I go alone 
  C  
I cannot decide
