G             D          A             Bm        
 People like you always want back the love they gave away 
G             D           A                  Bm 
 People like me want to believe you when you say that you've changed

 The more I think about it now the less I know

 All I know  is that you drove us off the road

 Was stay, all you had to do was stay

 Why'd you have to go and lock me out when I let you in 
   G        D 
 Stay, hey, now you say you want it

 Well it could've been easy

 Here you are now calling me up

 But I don't know what to say 
            D                A       Bm           
 I've been picking up pieces of the mess you made
