right back on. For the Fmaj7/C you do the same. For the Am, you take your middle two
fingers off and then right back on. For the G you take the finger that is on the high G
note and put your first finger on the C note on the B string. This is ONLY FOR THE INTRO AND
WHENEVER IT SAYS INSTRUMENTAL!!!!)
C/E Fmaj7/C
I'm Standing at your doorway
Am G C/E
My stomach all tangled n tight
Fmaj7/C
Have it your way
Am G (pause) C/E
Oh God, where are you tonight??

'Cuz I don't know what I'm doing here
G C/E
Or where to begin
Fmaj7/C Am
So take one deep breath
G
But darling, don't let me in
Instrumental C/E Fmaj7/C Am G x2
C/E Fmaj7/C
A Thousand times we've said
Am G C/E
"I'm sorry it's over again"
Fmaj7/C
I can't live like this
Am G C/E
Or feel like this in my own skin
Fmaj7/C Am
It all seems so degrading
G C/E (hold)
And like mourning such sin
Fmaj7/C (hold) Am (hold)
And faith, just like a child
G (pause)
Oh darling, don't let me in (whispering)
C/E Fmaj7/C
And we laughed just like children
Am G C/E
In waiting, in sheets on your bed
Fmaj7/C Am
Why we secretly pray
G C/E
Like we're mourning the dead
Fmaj7/C Am
And you tell me you're so weary
G (pause)
I know
C/E (hold)
'Cuz I'm weary too
Fmaj7/C (hold) Am
But hold back a tear
G (pause)
But darling, what a way to do
(instrumental to outro) C/E Fmaj7/C Am
G x2
C/E Fmaj7/C
And the wine, and the rain
Am G C/E
And the feel of your skin..Against mine
Fmaj7/C Am G
I'm swimming, I'm flying, I'm dying
C/E Fmaj7/C
This face, this fear
Am (hold) G (hold) C/E (hold)
Stay with me, oh stay with me my dear
Fmaj7/C (hold)
This hand
Am (hold)
This glow
G (pause)
It's only thing that I love
Instrumental C/E Fmaj7/C Am G x4
