Standard (EADGBE)
Remember when we were hand in hand
Remember, we sealed it with a golden band
Now your eyes don't meet mine
You've got a pulse like fever
Do I take you for a lover
Or just a deceiver
Simple is simple, Plain is plain
If you leave me now, You won't come back again
Don't give up
Don't renege on our love
Don't renege on our love
Give me just an ounce of sympathy
Give me my chains of liberty
There's a rope that binds us
And I don't want to break it
If love is a healing
Why should we forsake it
Hunger is hunger, Need is need
Am I just another mouth to feed
When the game is up
Don't renege on our love
Don't renege on our love
Solo
Remember when we were hand in hand
Remember, we sealed it with a golden band
Now your eyes don't meet mine
You've got a pulse like fever
Do I take you for a lover
Or just a deceiver
When my heart breaks
It breaks like the weather
If you leave me now
It'll thunder forever
Oh don't give it up
Don't renege on our love.
Don't renege on our love.
Don't renege on our love.
