The main riff is the only pain. It comes with a little practice but is easy once you get that fluid sound that Steve uses. Lyrics This is not the first time - you tried to get away. This is not a party - where people know your name. This is not a classroom - with teacher at the board. This is not a cat show - with prizes at the door. |Chorus| Go - Don't you go. Won't you stay with me one more day. If we get through one more night. If we get through one more night. This is not a horse race - where winner beats the time. This is not a funeral - with mourners in a line. This is not a sitcom - where everything's alright. This is not a prison - with terror through the night. |Chorus|
