  			Intro: A-Am7-A-Am7-A-Am7  

        A                                   Am7  
If I got on my knees and I pleaded with you,  

           A                               Am7  
Not to go but to stay in my arms,  

                 D                  E  
Would you walk out the door,  

                A               D  
Like you did once before?  

A  
This time,  

    E  
Be different,  

            A  
Please stay,  

      E  
don't go.  





        A                                         Am7  
If I call out your name like a prayer,  

                 A                                 Am7  
Would you leave me alone with my tears?  

           D          E  
Knowing I need you so,  

                 A                      D  
Would you still turn and go?  



A  
This time,  

    E  
Be different,  

            A  
Please stay,  

      E  
don't go  

            A         E  
Please stay.  




   D                        A  
I loved you before I even knew your name,  

    E                        A     (G-Am7)  
And I wanted to give you my heart,  

    D                         A  
But then you came back after leaving me one time,  

    E            D              E  
I knew that the heartache would start  




      A                          Am7  
If I called out your name like a song,  

          A  
That was written for you,  

      Am7  
You alone  

           D             E  
Would you still hurt my pride?  

   A           D  
Oh hey, how I cried  

A  
This time,  

    E  
Be different,  

            A     E  
Please stay,  

        A          E  
Please stay, (don't go)  

        A          E  
Please stay, don't go  

      A  
Please stay.
