 Verse:
Bb                            F                        C
 People like you always want back the love they gave away
                           Dm                (C)
 People like me want to believe you when you say you've changed
Bb                          F
 The more I think about it now
              C
 The less I know
                         Dm      (C)
 All I know is that you drove us off the road


 Chorus:
   Bb                            F
 Stay, Hey, all you had to do was stay
                              C
 Had me in the palm of your hand
                                 Dm                (C)
 Then, why'd you have to go and lock me out when I let you in
   Bb                               F
 Stay, hey, now you say you want it
                              C
 Back now that it's just too late
                         Dm                (C)
 Well it could've been easy all you had to do was stay
Bb
 All you had to do was stay
F
 All you had to do was stay
C
 All you had to do was stay
Dm              (C)
 All you had to do was stay


 Verse:
Bb
 Here you are now
            F
 Calling me up
                           C
 But I don't know what to say
                       Dm           (C)
 I've been picking up pieces of the mess you made
Bb                            F                          C
 People like you always want back the love they pushed aside
                               (Dm)
 But people like me are gone forever
          (C)
 When you say goodbye


 Chorus:
   Bb                            F
 Stay, Hey, all you had to do was stay
                              C
 Had me in the palm of your hand
                                 Dm                (C)
 Then, why'd you have to go and lock me out when I let you in
   Bb                               F
 Stay, hey, now you say you want it

 Back now that it's just too late

 Bridge:
                    Bb        F        C
 Let me remind you this was what you wanted
Dm   (C)
 You ended it
  Bb      F       C
 You were all I wanted
Dm   (C)       Bb
 But not like this
            F
 Not like this
C          Dm   (C)
 Not like this

 Oh, all you had to do was 


 Chorus:
   Bb                            F
