[Verse 1]
                               Db5 Eb5
Is there a word or right to say
                              Gb5 Ab5
Even in this oldfashioned way?
Go make your move, girl,
Gb5                   E5
   I'm not coming home
Gb5
B5                                               Db5 Eb5
  Would things have changed if I could've stayed?
                                   Gb5 Ab5
Would you have loved me either way?
                             Gb5
Dressed to the blues, day to day,
                 E5
with my collar up
Gb5 B5                               Db5 Eb5
      Decision sits, so make it quick
                                    Gb5 Ab5
A breath inhaled from an air so sick
                        Gb5                    E5
I cursed the day that I learned of the web you spun
                           Gb5 Db5 Db5
You had your hold 'til blee___ding

[Pre-Chorus]
                         E5
Hey, hey If it was up to me
             Gb5       Ab5
I would've figured you out
      Gb5                  B5
Way before the year clocked  out
      E5                 Db5
Oh, I hope you're waiting
                         E5
Hey, hey If it was up to me
             Gb5       Ab5
I would've figured you out
      Gb5                  B5
Way before the year clocked  out
      E5                 B5
Oh, I hope you're waiting

[Verse 2]
                                          Db5 Eb5
Would we have lived as a child would care?
                               Gb5 Ab5
With this vial to drink, I dare
                 Gb5                     E5
Only to cry all alone with your taste on tongue
Gb5 B5
      Should we try this again,
          Db5 Eb5
with hope?
                                Gb5 Ab5
Or is it lost? Give up the ghost
                       Gb5
And should I die, all alone,
            E5
as I knew I would?
                            Gb5 Db5 Db5
Then burn in hell, young sin___ner

[Pre-Chorus]
                         E5
Hey, hey If it was up to me
             Gb5       Ab5
I would've figured you out
      Gb5                  B5
Way before the year clocked  out
      E5
Oh, I hope you're waiting
                         B5
Oh, I hope you're waiting

[Chorus]
B5                               Gb5
  Listen well, will you marry me?
                                  Ab5
And are you well in the suffering?
The most gracious of hosts
    E5
You may be invited, girl,
    Gb5                 B5
but you're not coming in
                               Gb5
Listen well, will you marry me?
                                  Ab5
And are you well in the suffering?
The most gracious of hosts
  E5
I may be invited, girl,
    Gb5              B5 Db5
but I'm not coming in

[Pre-Chorus]
                         E5
Hey, hey If it was up to me
             Gb5       Ab5
I would've figured you out
      Gb5                  B5
Way before the year clocked  out
      E5                 Db5
Oh, I hope you're waiting
                         E5
Hey, hey If it was up to me
             Gb5      Ab5
I would've never walk out
     Gb5              B5
So until the sun comes  down
      E5                 B5
Oh, I hope you're waiting

[Chorus]
B5                               Gb5
  Listen well, will you marry me?
                                  Ab5
And are you well in the suffering?
The most gracious of hosts
    E5
You may be invited, girl,
    Gb5                 B5
but you're not coming in
                               Gb5
Listen well, will you marry me?
                                  Ab5

Listen well, will you marry me?
                                  Ab5
And are you well in the suffering?
The most gracious of hosts
    E5
You may be invited, girl,
    Gb5                 B5
but you're not coming in
                               Gb5
Listen well, will you marry me?
                                  Ab5
And are you well in the suffering?
The most gracious of hosts
  E5
I may be invited, girl,
    Gb5
but I'm not coming in

[Outro]
E5                        B5
  And you're not coming in
