Stay

	  		
Verse:

A                                      E 
I've been sitting here staring at the clock on the wall 
A                                    E 
And I've been laying here praying, praying she won't call 
             Bm 
It's just another call from home 
       D                                 A      E 
You’ll get it and be gone and I'll be crying 
A                          E 
I'll be begging you baby, beg you not to leave 
A                                   E 
But I'll be left here waiting' with my heart on my sleeve 
            Bm 
Oh for the next time we'll be here 
       D                                     A     E 
Seems like a million years, and I think I'm dying 
Bm                       D 
What do I have to do to make you see 
Bm         D           E 
She can't love you like me 


               A 
Why don't you stay 
                D 
I'm down on my knees 
                        Bm 
I'm so tired of being lonely 
                           E 
Don't I give you what you need 
          C#m         F#m 
When she calls you to go 
                              D 
There's one thing you should know 
                           Bm      E 
We don't have to live this way 
                     A        E   Bm   D   E 
Baby, why don't you stay 



Verse 

A                          E 
You keep telling me baby there will come a time 
A                                  E 
When you will leave her arms and forever be in mine 
       Bm 
Well I don't think that's the truth 
       D                                       A         E 
And I don't like being used and I'm tired of waiting 

Bm                     D 
It's too much pain to have to bare 
Bm        D                E 
To love a man you have to share 


               A 
Why don't you stay 
                D 
I'm down on my knees 
                       Bm 
I'm so tired of being lonely 
                            E 
Don't I give you what you need 
         C#m          F#m 
When she calls you to go 
                              D 
There's one thing you should know 
                           Bm      E 
We don't have to live this way 
                     A 
Baby, why don't you stay 



Verse 

          Bm 
I can't take it any longer 
        D 
But my will is getting stronger 
       Bm                              E 
And I think I know just what I have to do 
         Bm 
I can't waste another minute 
      D 
After all that I've put in it 
      Bm 
I've given you my best 
              E 
Why does she get the best of you 
    Bm 
So next time you find 
     D                         E 
You want to leave her bed for mine 


               A 
Why don't you stay 
                D 
I'm up off my knees 
                       Bm 
I'm so tired of being lonely 
                          E 
You can't give me what I need 
          C#m            F#m 
When she begs you not to go 
                               D 
There's one thing you should know 
                          Bm        E 
I don't have to live this way 
                    A       E   Bm   D   E   A 
Baby why don't you stay
