J.R. Carroll - Stay

Capo: 2nd fret

[Verse 1]
G
Do you think about me since I’m gone?
D
Is that why you can’t stop drinkin’?
Am
Is that why you’re sinkin’?
C G
Did my leavin’ get the best of you?
G
Have you heard what I’ve been writin’?
D
I hope you don’t know it’s about you
Am
‘Cause all my time without you
C G
Has got me sinkin’ down to all the depths of my despair
G7 C D
Are you dancin’ with another lonely drifter

[Chorus]
G D/F# Em
Or are you spinnin’ on your own?
C D
Did you take his hand and promise he could be your man
G D/F# Em
Or did you turn him down and just make your way home
C D
To tell me pretty lies until that mornin’ sun does rise
G D/F# Em
When I see you in a different light of day?
C D
But the only light right now is in your eyes
G
And I want you to stay
G
Most times, you don’t seem worth the trouble

[Verse 2]
D
But when we’re right, it’s like I’m dreamin’
Am
Always havin’ trouble breathin’
C
Baby, you’re the reason
G
Girl, you take my breath away
G
And if you ever do forgive me
D
I’ll show the world that you’re a star
Am
But you just love me when you’re lonely
C G
And act like you don’t know me ‘til the light turns into dark
G7 C D
Are you dancin’ with another lonely drifter

[Chorus]
G D/F# Em
Or are you spinnin’ on your own?
C D
Did you take his hand and promise he could be your man
G D/F# Em
Or did you turn him down and just make your way home
C D
To tell me pretty lies until that mornin’ sun does rise
G D/F# Em
When I see you in a different light of day?
C D
But the only light right now is in your eyes
C G
And I want you to stay
