[Intro]
D C G D
[VERSE]
D C
I've spent my life waiting, For that famous final scene
G
I believe you know the one
D
When she falls in love with me
As for you
D
You've been fakin' your smile
C
Fillin' your time on small talk, and cheap wine
G D
Knowing in your heart there was someplace that you'd rather be
[PRE-CHORUS]
C G
So right or wrong, I wrote you this song
D
To tell you how I feel
C G
Don't put up no fight, you just turn off the lights
A
Walk over here to me
[CHORUS]
D Am G/B
And lay your body down on me
C G D
Down on me, tonight, oh yeah
D Am G/B
Oh, let your tears fall down on me
C G D
Down on me, tonight, oh yeah
[VERSE]
As for me
D
I've lied to, denied to, fight with, and tried to
C
Apologize for all my ways...To all the women
G D
Who were fool enough to fall in love with me
D
You played your role like a movie
C
Got your lines for who is, who was, who would be
G D
Somehow you lost track while real love slipped away, yeah
[PRE-CHORUS]
C G
So for tonight, just turn off the lights
D
And let those real feelings show
C G
There's no wrong or right, but until you try
A
You're never gonna know

Ain't it A shame, your heart must feel pain
D
Before you get back on your feet again
[SOLO]
