1st Verse:
G      D9           C9      Em7
Please show me there?s something wrong 
      D9  D9/F#  C9
That I don?t see in you
G      D9   C9   Em7
Some terrible secret flaw 
      D9  D9/F#  C/G
That no one could excuse
G       D9     C9   Em7
I try to hide you from my mind
D9    D9/F# C9
And make myself forget
G      D9  C9   Em7
Please don?t try to stay 
D9           D9/F#  C/G
And make what?s clean a mess

C9    G   C9
Run away girl
C9    Em7 C9
Run away now

 
2nd Verse:
G   D9        C9     Em7
The way that you smile at me
D9       D9/F#   C9
Isn?t helping much at all
G      D9       C9   Em7
Please try not to laugh it only
D9   D9/F#    C/G
Makes me want you more
G  D9              C9   Em7
We both know this could never be
D9    D9/F#    C9
But I can?t let you go


Bridge: 
(add 3rd fret high e & b string with chord formation)
D9/F#       Em7            C9
What if you thought you saw a ghost
G                D9
A hundred times a day
D9/F#     Em7             C9
What if the thing you wanted most
       G           D9
Was impossible to save

D9 , C9 , Em , D9 , D9/F# , C/G
La      La    La   La      La      La
