[Verse 1]
C
He only calls you pretty
Am
When he puts his hands on your body
F G
When he’s drunk with his friends after nights that don’t end
I just wish he’d come home from that party
C
You’ve got these big, brown eyes
Am
You’ve got the perfect smile
F
But you’re a dreamer, you think that he’s a keeper
G
But he’s just a waste of time
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Dm Am G
You don’t wanna let him down
Dm Am G *
You don’t see the higher ground
[Chorus]
C F
If I could, if I could take your place
Am G
Then I would, then I would walk away
C
But I’ll be your shoulder to cry on
F
Wipe the tears from your еyes
Am G *
If I could do it for you
N.C. C F Am G
Then I would say goodby-----ye, goodby-----yе
[Verse 2]
C
It hurts me to watch you suffer
Am
It’s been drivin’ me insane
F
You don’t know the love you have to give
G
And the beauty in your brain
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Dm Am G
But you don’t wanna let him down
Dm Am G
I wish you could see the higher ground
[Chorus]
C F
And if I could, if I could take your place
Am G
Then I would, then I would walk away
C
But I’ll be your shoulder to cry on
F
Wipe the tears from your eyes
Am G
If I could do it for you
C F Am G
Then I would say goodby-----ye, goodby-----yе
C F Am G
I would say goodby-----ye, goodby-----yе
C
I would say goodbye
[Bridge]
F
I’m tired of your lies
Am
And if you don’t get it right
G
I’m leaving you tonight
C
I would say goodbye
F
I’m tired of your lies
Am
And if you don’t get it right
G
I’m leaving you tonight
[Chorus]
C * F *
If I could, if I could take your place
Am * G *
Then I would, then I would walk away
C *
But I’ll be your shoulder to cry on
F *
Wipe the tears from your eyes
Am * G *
If I could do it for you
C F
Then I would say goodby-----ye
Am G
Wish I could do it for you
C F Am G *
I wish I could say goodbye
