Capo 4 
 
 
A5         C5             G5            D5         A5  C5   G5  D5 
Trying to keep a candle burning in a hurricane 
A5                C5             G5           D5             A5  C5  G5  D5 
that's what it's like when you love me and leave me this way 
A5      C5           G5             D5                A5 C5 G5 D5 
Like a dove crying out when he's lost the will to fly,  yeah 
A5        C5       G5             D5             A5    C5 G5 D5 
Shackled down to earth by your long chain of lies,    well 
  

A5                   G5            D5           A5 
I'll forgive you tomorrow if the sun doesn't shine 
A5                    G5             D5          A5 
Let you back into my life when the oceans are dry 
A5                        G5            D5                G5 
Take you back when every shade of the rainbow turns to gray 
      D5                       A5 C5 G5 A5  C5 G5  A5 
But I just can't do it today,    I can?t do   
 


Well I can see you dancing in that strangers arms 

My world hasn?t stopped turning but it?s fallin? apart 

Every breath that I take?s a little to sane, yeah 

They say time is a healer but it?s still a long, long ways away, yeah 
 
Chorus 
 
I can?t do it today 

Don?t wanna do it today 
 
Bridge: 
A5 
There?s a part of me that wishes I could just forget 
                              G5 
But I haven?t found the mercy yet, ain?t no mercy yet 
 
Chorus
