Walk Out Backwards

D                                  G
I'd rather live a life of lies and fantasy
         D                                        A7
Than to face the truth and realize you're leaving me
    D                                   G
You built me up so high my heart can't stand to fall
     D                     A7                  D
And life without your love just isn't life at all

                                  G
So walk out backwards if you must go
    A7                                             D
But please don't wave goodbye, Just wave one last hello
                                             G
The truth won't hurt so much, If I can just pretend,
              A7                                     D
So walk out backwards, And I'll think you're walking in

                                             G
Well, you walked into my heart in search of sympathy
          D                                            A7
And from that day down to this, You've walked all over me
     D                                       G
And now you're walking out to love somebody new
     D               A7                                D
But you're not by yourself, 'Cause my heart's leaving too

                                  G
So walk out backwards if you must go
    A7                                             D
But please don't wave goodbye, Just wave one last hello
                                             G
The truth won't hurt so much, If I can just pretend,
              A7                                     D
So walk out backwards, And I'll think you're walking in
