Introduction: Dm G Dm G
Am Bm
1. How can I just let you walk away,
C Dm
just let you leave without a trace,
F G Em Am
when I stand here taking every breath with you, ooh.
Dm F G
You're the only one who really knew me at all.
Am Bm
How can you just walk away from me,
C Dm
when all I can do is watch you leave,
F G
'cause we've shared the laughter and the pain,
Em Am
and even shared the tears.
Dm F G G7
You're the only one who really knew me at all.
C D
So take a look at me now, 'cause there's just an empty space,
Am F
and there's nothing left here to remind me,
Dm G
just the memory of your face.
G7 C D
Ooh, take a look at me now, 'cause there's just an empty space,
Am F
and you coming back to me is against the odds,
Dm G G7
and that's what I've got to face.
Am Bm
2. I wish I could just make you turn around,
C Dm
turn around and see me cry,
F G
there's so much I need to say to you,
Em Am
so many reasons why.
Dm F G G7
You're the only one who really knew me at all.
C D
So take a look at me now, 'cause there's just an empty space,
Am F
and there's nothing left here to remind me,
Dm G
just the memory of your face.
G7 C D
Now, take a look at me now, 'cause there's just an empty space,
Am F
but to wait for you, well that's all I can do,
Dm G
and that's what I've got to face.
G7 C D
Take a good look at me now, 'cause I'll still be standing here,
Am F
and you coming back to me is against all odds,
Dm G G7 Dm- G Dm- G
it's the chance I've got to take.
G7 Dm G
Take a look at me now
