View chords used in this chart
[Refrão]
D /E /D C G
Oh darlin' hold on take it another step further along
D /E /D C G
Rest assured when your life is through you gave your heart all it's due
 
Em D
Right now it seems so far away
Em D
But I could never stop believing
G F#m
The hope within me is alive today
Em Bm
I'll stick around I ain't leavin'
 
Em D
I know it's hard to be misunderstood
Em D
And I'm glad you read between the lines
G F#m
I've tried to be the best friend that I could
Em Bm A
Ain't no more cause for passin' time
 
Chorus
 
Maybe I ain't got the golden touch
The kind that's music to your ear
What gain would I have not much
For the words you wanna hear
 
Keep your distance now and stand your guard
Though I never meant to threaten you
You've played your hand I've seen your cards
What happens now is up to you
 
Chorus (solos over D and Dsus4)
