Stay With Me

[Intro]:
F Dm A

[Chorus]:
F              Dm         A
Maybe I'm not meant to be held
F              Dm            A
I get close, and they always leave
F                Dm       A
Will you be like everyone else
            F    Dm   A
Or will you stay with me

[Verse 1]:
A                 Dm
They stole all my innocence and
A              Dm
Turned me to a masochist
A                  Dm              F     G
Consumed in all my darkness when I weep
A                Dm
You walked in so heaven-sent and
A             Dm
Laid me in my bed to rest and
   A            Dm              F
My lonely dying garden where I sleep
G                     F     G
When I wake, will you leave

[Chorus]:
F              Dm         A
Maybe I'm not meant to be held
F              Dm            A
I get close, and they always leave
F                Dm       A
Will you be like everyone else
            F    Dm   A
Or will you stay with me
F               Dm        A
Maybe I've done this to myself
F                 Dm           A
Another love that I've had to grieve
F                Dm       A
Will you be like everyone else
            F    Dm   A
Or will you stay with me

[Verse 3]:
  A               Dm
I can't afford to lose another
  A                   Dm
Please don't turn out like my mother
  A                  Dm               F      G
I'm terrified you'll hurt me when I'm weak
 A               Dm
You could be the one to take
A             Dm
All my pretty pain away
      A                Dm              F
Just promise that your love is mine to keep
G                    F    N.C.
If I break, will you leave

[Chorus]:
F              Dm         A
Maybe I'm not meant to be held
F              Dm            A
I get close, and they always leave
F                Dm       A
Will you be like everyone else
            F    Dm   A
Or will you stay with me (Ah-ah)
F               Dm         A
Maybe I've done this to myself (Ah-ah)
F                 Dm           A
Another love that I've had to grieve (Ah-ah)
F                Dm       A
Will you be like everyone else
            F    Dm   A
Or will you stay with me
