A5                      C#5     C#5
I can't find a reason, to     let go
     F#5                    D5
Even though you found a new love,
          F#5                  D5
And she's what your dreams are made of.
A5                    C#5   C#5
I can find a reason, to hang on
          F#5              D5
What went wrong can be for-given,
        F#5                D5         A5
Without you it ain't worth living, a-lone.

Chorus
    E5       D5       A5         D5
Sometimes I wake up cryin' at night,
        E5       D5               A5
And sometimes I scream out your name.
     E5              D5       A5    [2]  your heart away
What right does she have to take [1] you away?
         B5      D5        E5
When for so long you were mine.

Verse
  A5                C#5          C#5
I took out all the pictures of our wedding day.
         F#5              D5
It was a time of love and laughter,
F#5        D5
happy ever after.
    A5                             C#5   C#5
But even those olds pictures have begun to fade,
       F#5               D5
Please tell me she's not real,
         F#5                  D5       A5
And that you're really coming home to stay.

Chorus 

Bridge:
D5 G5                  B5
  I can give you two good reasons,
   F5                   C5
To show you love's not blind.
     B5          C#5        F#5       D5
He's two and she's four, and you know they adore you.
   B5        C#5        D5                   E5
So how can I tell them , you've changed your mind?

Chorus (Modulation)
    F#5      E5       B5         E5
Sometimes I wake up cryin' at night,
        F#5      E5               B5
And sometimes I scream out your name.
     F#5             E5       B5        
What right does she have to take your heart away?
         C#5      E5        F#5
When for so long you were mine.
C#5         E5    F#5       B5
I remember when you were mine.
