[Verse]
G      D                C          G
It all started when you said to me
C                         G
You need to come get your things
              D          C           G
It struck me still and I couldnt believe
     C                     D
That words could cary such pain

         G           D
They say sticks and stones may
C           G
Break your bones but
C                    G
Words can never hurt you
                 D
That might be a fact
        C            G
But it feels like a slap to the face
     C          D          G
When I hear you say you're through

[Chorus]

Baby
F          C          G
Please dont leave me now
F       C          G
All of this can be figured out
F          C       G
Please dont walk away
     Em
I'll give you what you want
       C           D        G
But I need you to want to stay

[Verse]

G        D         C          G
You know I always try to do right
    C                      G
By you and those that you love
      G       D           C      G
And I promise I'll always do my best
C       D              G
Even though I'll slip up

[Chorus]

Just
F          C          G
Please dont leave me now
F       C          G
All of this can be figured out
F          C       G
Please dont walk away
     Em
I'll give you what you want
       C           D        G
But I need you to want to stay

(Strum G)(Bridge)

      F          C             G
Theres too many memories with you by my side
F        C             G
Too many more left to make
F            C            G
I think it's time we both swallowed our pride
    Em             D
And do whatever it takes

[Verse]

     G        D         C         G
So sticks and stones can break my bones
     C                  G
But words can break my heart
       D                C           G
Especially when they're from you to me
       C        D        G
Sayin that you want us apart

[Chorus]

Baby
F      C      G
I'm not leavin now
F       C        G
So glad we got it figured out
   F         C        G
No I'm never walking away
      Em                        C         D        G
I'll give you what you want and darlin I'm here to stay
