G    Em   Am                       D
Tell me, just one more time, the reasons why you
G     Em      Am                     D
must leave. Tell me once more why you're sure you don't
G    Em   Am                   D
need me. Tell me again, but don't think that you'll
G        G   Cm   D
convince me.

[Verse 2]
    G       Em           Am               D
Now you've said, before falling in love again you'd rather
G  Em                Am                   D
be dead. 'Cause when someone breaks your heart, you cry your
G     Em               Am               D
eyes red. But there's nothin' so hard about the life that
G      G    Cm  G
you've lead


[Bridge]
    C            A              D              G
As far as I can see there's no reason for "goodbyes."
C                    A                 D
You're just running scared and that's something I won't buy.


[Chorus]
   G    Em      Am                      D
So you lose; I won't let you go with nothing to show but
G    Em          Am                   D
more blues. And all this talk about leavin' is strictly
G   Em       Am                    D
bad news. So you settle down and stay with the man that
G    G    Cm   G
loves you.

C                    A                 D

   G    Em      Am                      D

bad news. So you settle down and stay with the man that loves you.
Am                   D                      G     Em    Am   D   G
You settle down and stay with the man that loves you.
