Capo 5th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Verse 1

I count the steps from where I am

 To where I started

I tap my feet and close the door

 To your apartment

And I know you're never gonna understand

Its too late for you to stop and think

Too late to mention

I make a move and spill my drink

To break the tension

And I know youre never gonna understand

I'll try my best to follow if I can, but...

Chorus

I would have let you leave

I would have let you leave

I would have let you leave

Verse 2

Same as Verse 1

The static waves across the screen

Define this notion

Back and forth and in between

Like my emotion

And I know youre never gonna understand

And won't you slow this down oh if you can

You swayed your hips and stole the breathe

That I was taking

I touched your lips and held your hand

When they were shaking

Chorus 2

Same as Chorus 1

Look how we've fallen upon our knees

How we forgot it

These empty halls held our disease

Before we caught it

Now out the door and down the stairs from your apartment

I would have let you leave

Bridge

Same as Verses

Chorus 3

Same as Chorus 1 & 2

The static waves across the screen

Define this notion

Back and forth and in between

Like my emotion

Now out the door and down the stairs

From your apartment

I count the steps from where I am

To where I started

Outro

I would have let you (x2)

I would have let you leave
