[Verse 1]
Cmaj7DEm
You don't know what it's like to live in shadows
Cmaj7Bm7Am7
Always regretting what you've done
Cmaj7DEm
Spending time counting every little mistake
Cmaj7Bm7Bbmaj7
Knowing it's always easier to run
Cmaj7DEm
You don't have to spend your life looking backward
Cmaj7Bm7Am7
We've been through this over and over again
Cmaj7D
You can't just wish it away
Em
The past is the past, it'll never change
Cmaj7Bm7Bb5
That was before, this is now and when
[Pre-Chorus]
A5
We have a chance to make it better if we try
E5F5
Oh, but I will not endanger one more friend
Eb5A5
You're free to do the things you want but, listen, so am I
Bb5A5Ab5G5A5
I made my choice, and now I'm making mine
[Chorus]
D5G5A5
Go where you need to
D5Ab5G5
Know I won't leave you
D5Bb5Eb5C5
I'll follow you like morning follows night
D5G5A5
You can run 'til your pain's through
D5Ab5G5
One thing I won't do
Bb5A5D5
Is to let you go alone to face the fight
[Verse 2]
C5D5E5
Hard to know where to turn when your life's a disaster
C5B5A5
Trying to start all over again
C5D5E5
So much shame, so much time that just feels wasted
C5B5Bb5
Feeling like now could never make up for then
C5D5E5
Life's not a game you can play to get even
C5B5A5
We all make mistakes, but we need to move on
C5D5
I know that you hate where you strayed
E5
Forgiving yourself is the only way
C5B5Bb5
Just look ahead, yesterday is gone
[Pre-Chorus]
A5
I know you think you're being selfless, but you're not
E5F5
I refuse to risk another's pain again
Eb5A5
The pain is when you shut me out and take off on your own
Bb5A5Ab5G5A5
No matter what, you'll never walk alone
[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
Dm
See you'll never understand what I feel, what I see
Dm
What's going through my mind, how it feels being me
Dm
All the struggles, all the fights, long days, longer nights
Dm
Trying to search for this happiness lost in the light
Dm
But it seems that it's all just out of my sight
Dm
Just out of my reach, can't seem to get right
Dm
Like I'm cursed with the turbulence placed in my life
Dm
Can't push or pull it, stuck up in this ball pit
Dm
Cycle of pain, all the stress in my brain
Dm
I'm just trying to maintain, 'cause I'm going insane
Dm
But no matter what I do, the cries go unheard
Dm
Yet I still believe in you, every breath, every word
Dm
Every smile, every glance could be another chance
Dm
That you finally see the love that is me
Dm
So until that time, I'll follow everyday
Dm
Every step of the way, and continue to say
[Chorus]
D5G5A5
Go where you need to (Go)
D5Ab5G5
Know I won't leave you
D5Bb5Eb5C5
I'll follow you (Follow you) like morning follows night
D5G5A5
You can run 'til your pain's through (Run)
D5Ab5G5
One thing I won't do
Bb5A5D5
Is to let you go alone to face the fight
