If You Stay

Intro:
A A6 Amaj7 A6 (x2) 



[Verso 1]
 
A           A6            Amaj7 
Who else is gonna look at me 
               A6         A    A6 Amaj7 A6 
Like they just won the lottery 
A           A6            Amaj7 
Who else is gonna read my mind 
               A6 
And take their time 
            A 
We'll never find 
            A6               Amaj7 A6 
The love we need if we don't try 
 


[Pré-Refrão]
 
D 
It's raining outside 
Dm                            A A6 Amaj7 A6 
It's quiet on garden street tonight 
D 
It's dangerous to hide 
Dm                  A A6 Amaj7 A6 
I'm an ideal, not a bride 
 


[Refrão]
 
But if you stay 
D                           A A6 Amaj7 A6 
I promise I'll learn how to change 
                
So stuck in my ways 
D                           A A6 Amaj7 A6 
But I could love you if you stay 
 


[Verso 2]
 
A          A6              Amaj7 
I trace my secrets on your back 
           A6            A       A6 Amaj7 A6 
I place my tired arms in your lap 
A             A6          Amaj7 
God knows I'm not an open book 
              A6        A          A6 Amaj7 A6 
But crack the spine and take a look 
 


[Ponte]
 
D 
Your eager eyes 
Dm                     A A6 Amaj7 A6 
Gentle touches, gentle sighs 
D 
When I left your place 
Dm              C#m  C#      F#m  E 
I studied every inch of your face 
D 
To hold it in my mind 
Dm                     A A6 Amaj7 A6 
To keep our kisses memorised 
 


[Refrão]
 
But if you stay 
D                          A A6 
I could memorise you every day 
Amaj7         A6             
It's not like me to beg and pray 
D                                   A A6 
Darling, this hurts more than I can say 
Amaj7    A6                  
I always thought you'd run away 
D       Dm  A A6 Amaj7 A6 
But can you stay?

                   A A6 Amaj7 A6 
Every inch of your face 
                 A A6 Amaj7 A6 
When I left your place 
                A A6 Amaj7 
Memorised every day 
   A6  A A6 Amaj7 A6 A 
If you stay
