[Verse 1]
F#m
Time flies
G
When you're having fun
Bm F#m
I heard somebody say.
A F#m
But if all I've been is fun,
G
Then baby let me go,
Bm F#m
Don't wanna be in your way.
A G Bm
And I don't wanna be your second choice,
D Bm F#m
Don't wanna be just your friend.
A G Bm
You keep telling me that you're not in love,
G Bm A
You wanna throw it all away.
[Segue]
A Bm
But I can't stay away from you.
F#m A
I don't wanna let you go.
A Bm
And though it's killing me that's true,
G A
There's just some things I can't control.
G
Your love is slipping through my hands.
D Bm G
And though I've heard it all before...
[Chorus]
G A D
I know you're telling me the truth,
G A
I know it's just no use,
G A D
But I can't stay away from you.
[Verse 2]
F#m
Hold on
G
To every bit of hope,
Bm F#m
That's all I ever do.
A F#m
Hoping you might change your mind
G
And call me up to say
Bm F#m
How much you need me too
A G Bm
And though you're leaving me no other choice
D Bm F#m
Than to turn and walk away
A G Bm
Look over your shoulder, I'll be there
G Bm A
You can count on me to stay ...
[Segue]
A Bm
'Cause I can't stay away from you.
F#m A
I don't wanna let you go.
A Bm
And though it's killing me that's true,
G A
There's just some things I can't control.
G
Your love is slipping through my hands.
D Bm
And though I've heard it all before...
[Chorus]
G A D
I know you're telling me the truth,
G A
I know it's just no use,
G A D
But I can't stay away from you.
[Chorus]
G A D
I know you're telling me the truth,
G A
I know it's just no use,
G A D
But I can't stay away from you.
[Outro]
