G

Verse 1:
           G
It was a freezing night and not a single cloud

   D
I had a couple in me so I reached out

             Em
And then I heard your voice Felt you all inside

    C
I prayed for the distance to keep us in line

              G
But there's things I've done you understand like no one else

         D                 
There's pain I kept buried deep inside myself

            Em                     D
I've been saying for forever "hey that's not me"

    Em                               D
But me with you is who I think I'll always be

Chorus
            C
Please say no

            G
Please say no

            C
Please say no

            G
Please say no

      Em          C
Say anything you will

                  G           Em
Except how you'd have me still

     D            C
Say anything but no

                  G
And I'll go I'll go I'll go

Verse 2:
            G
It was the peak of summer and I thought I'd drowned

     D
We couldn't get close  All the kids were around

             Em
But I could read you plain You want a different life

C
Someday hell, you might ruin mine

       G
I've lately come to wonder what it might feel like

    D
If one last time we went and did this right

     Em                             D
And someone no one possibly could know our names

 Em                          D
Someone no one bothers to remember face


Chorus
            C
Please say no

            G
Please say no

            C
Please say no

            G
Please say no no no no no

      Em          C
Say anything you will

                  G           Em
Except how you'd have me still

     D            C
Say anything but no

                  G
And I'll go I'll go I'll go

G

If all you're really hoping for is peace of mind

Don't come to me with questions, you'll just waste your time
