Intro D Dbm D Db 

D 
I'm holding on for my dear life to the railing on the roof,  
F#m 
and the ground below me looks up and says "What are you gonna do?' 
G 
"Are you gonna throw it all away?  
Gonna end it all  
        D                       A 
Or not?"  
D 
And I'm waiting for the phone to ring, to hear your voice again.  
Dbm 
Cause you're the only one who can save me from this dark and lonely end.  
Em                                                                      G 
But its getting colder by the second, surrounded by  
                   D 
these forget-me-nots.  
A 
And second thoughts.  
                   D 
And I want them to stop.  
                Dbm 
Please, stop.  
D 
Stop.  
F#m 
Please, stop.  
D 
Well, the ground is looking softer every second that I wait.  
Dbm 
And the rain is stinging on my skin as tears fall down my face.  
Bm 
And I hold your picture in my hand,  
                            D               A 
So you'll be with me when I go.  
D 
And I recall the moments that lead me to this.  
All of my mistakes.  
F#m 
I say goodbye to all my memories,  
And lies to my face.  
Bm 
Cause I was hurting on the inside,  
                                 D 
So I hurt myself on the outside, too.  
        A 
But then came you.  
                     D 
And you begged me to stop.  
                Db 
Please, stop.  
D 
Stop.  
                F#m 
Please, stop.  
Bm 
And I walk up to the edge,  
And I kiss your picture goodbye.  
        D 
And I turn around to lean back and I see you  
A                             D 
With your hands out screaming "Stop!"  
        F#m 
Please, stop!  
D 
Stop!  
        Dbm 
Please, stop! 
(Slower and softer)  
                D 
But you were just a little too late.  
I touched your fingers on my way down.  
F#m 
Falling faster than I fell for you.  
        D 
And when I look up,  
I see you looking down on me.  
        D 
You're screaming, crying, begging, pleading,  
A 
weeping.  
                       D 
That's when everything stopped.  
F#m 
Stopped.  
D 
Stop.  
F#m 
Stop. 
F# D
