Bb Dm C Gm
[Verso 1]
Dm
When it's just the two of us
Bb
You told me that I'm what you've always wanted
C
But lately, love, if I'm being honest
Gm
I think your promises are built to break
My mistake
Dm
'Cause inside my chest
Bb
I got one piece left of this broken heart, so
C
When I gave it to you I should've been more careful
Gm
So just let go if you can't say you'll stay
Say you'll stay
[Refrão]
Bb
When you love me
Dm
Oh, my heart bleeds
C
Till I can't breathe
Gm

Bb
Hold me
Dm
And leave me lonely
C
Unless you show me
Gm
That you mean it when you tell me
Bb Dm
You won't go
C Gm
Say you'll stay
Bb Dm
Go
C Gm
Say you'll stay
[Verso 2] Dm
Are you coming home?
Bb
Should I lock the door or should I leave a light on?
C
'Cause all my friends, they say you're like a kite, oh
Gm
You're flying high, always changing with the wind
Should I give in?
