Riff 1    
               *                                  *           
I've this creeping Suspicion that things here are not as they seem 
         *                      *                                 *
Reassure me Why do I feel as if I'm in too deep Now I've been praying 
                              *                                *
For some way to show them I'm not what they see Oh I have done wrong 
                         *                Riff 1 
But what I did I thought needed be done I swear 

          *                          *                               *   
Oh unholy day If I leave now I might get away Oh, but this weighs on me 
                         *
As heavy as stone and as blue as I go

I was just wondering if you'd come along Hold up my head when my head 
           G74   C           F           C/E          G74
won't hold on    I'll do the same if the same's what you want 
    C           Riff 3                       * 
But if not I'll go         I will go a long way 

                      *                              *
Ah ha ah ah From that fool's mistake and now forever pay No, run 
                    *
I will run and I'll be okay

I was just wondering if you'd come along Hold up my head when my head 
           G74   C           F           C/E          G74
won't hold on    I'll do the same if the same's what you want

But if not I'll go         I will go a long way 

                       *                                 * 
To Bury the past for I don't want to pay  Oh, how I wish this 
                              *
To turn back the clock and do over again

But if not I'll go         I will go a long way 
       *                                * 
I need so To stay in your arms, see you smile, hold you close 
                     *                          *
And now it weighs on me As heavy as stone and a bone chilling cold

I was just wondering if you'd come along          Tell me you will
