Dm F Bb A
[Verse 1]
Dm
Fell for you first day that I met you.
F
Never dreamed that I ever could forget you.
Bb A
But black and white make a mess when they turn to grey.
Dm
Sunlight came sweepin´ cross the window,
F
Rewind to the time when we were so close,
Bb A
Got me longin´ for yesterday.
Dm F Bb A
But, Lord, you know me so well, I can be a little punk sometimes.
[Chorus]
Bb A Dm C
But don´t leave me, leave me alone, bust down the door to my heart like it´s your home.
Bb A Dm
Don´t need no keys, I´m on my knees, begging you please.
Bb A Dm C
I´ve gotta settle this thing once and for all, you got my heart, my soul, you can have it all.
Bb A Dm N.C.
I´m on my knees, beggin´ you please, beggin´ you please, Lord, don´t leave me alone.
Dm F Bb A
Don´t leave me alone.
[Verse 2]
Dm
Through the tears, through the pain comes a new day.
F
Blown away still amazed You pursue me
Bb A
Ain't no limit to the way You love
Dm
Don't stop, Lord I need You like a heartbeat
F
Concrete, Rock solid under my feet
Bb A
And You're callin' me, You're callin' me up
Dm F Bb A
But, Lord, you know me so well, I can be a little punk sometimes.
[Chorus]
Bb A Dm C
But don´t leave me, leave me alone, bust down the door to my heart like it´s your home.
Bb A Dm
Don´t need no keys, I´m on my knees, begging you please.
Bb A Dm C
I´ve gotta settle this thing once and for all, you got my heart, my soul, you can have it all.
Bb A Dm N.C.
I´m on my knees, beggin´ you please, beggin´ you please, Lord, don´t leave me alone.
