Intro: C 


Almost nothing shakes me 
                      G       D          G        C 
I'll admit tonight I'm scared, scared to death 

All this talk of leaving 
                         Em                D 
Walking away from love we've shared, takes my breath 
        F                     C    D 
I could find the strength within myself 


                          G        C 
But I don't wanna be that strong 
                          G 
I don't wanna know that feeling 
                 Em    A7 
Of barely hanging on 
                        C    D 
While my broken heart is healing 
                   G     C 
I know the hands of time 
                    Em      D        C 
Would hold me until all the hurt is gone 
                     G     C 
I could make it on my own 
N.C. 
But I don't wanna be that strong 


INTERLUDE: F C      F C 



I could hold my head up 
                         G   D    G         C 
I could keep the tears inside for awhile 

Fill the anxious days 
                     Em            D 
Somehow face the lonely nights for awhile 
       F                C            D 
When I need to, I could even force a smile 


                          G        C 
But I don't wanna be that strong 
                          G 
I don't wanna know that feeling 
                 Em    A7 
Of barely hanging on 
                        C    D 
While my broken heart is healing 
                   G     F C 
I know the hands of time 
                    Em      D        C 
Would hold me until all the hurt is gone 
                     G     D 
I could make it on my own 
N.C.                C              G   C 
But I don't wanna be that strong
