You Left It Up To Me

E E {intro} E When I let you go, I cursed myself with empty hands E Strong enough to watch you walk, but not enough to understand it E With spiteful eyes you burn for my grace E I was trying to stand outside of this, you were trying to save face E E You can say that I don't care (I don't care) E E You can hope that we still have something left to A E share; But just between you, baby, and me A E Just between me, baby, and you E There's nothing there I finally found someone I can hold You ask me to defend myself, as if I shouldn't be so bold Well, get that look off of your face I don't have the time, (I don't have the time) and you don't have the place To say that I don't care (I don't care) And hope that we still have something left to share But just between me, baby, and you Just between you, baby, and me There's nothing there {Instrumental, same chords as one verse} Baby, what are you gonna do? I can't salvage any truth from you Everybody else already knows E A A It hurts you to realize, so leave well enough, enough alone D D E E You don't need my hands to help you understand A A D D You don't need to hear my voice (you have no choice) D D E E So don't be throwing stones; the closer we get, the harder they come A A D D Now, even if you're feeling alone, don't come home E E D D 'Cause when it was up to you (when it was up to you) E E D D When it was up to you, you left it up to A E/A E me (me...) You left it up to A E/A E me, oh you left, oh you left it up to me E E D E A. When it was up to you, you left it up to me - Adam Schneider, schneider@pobox.com
