A C G D A C G D Trying to keep a candle burning in a hurricane A C G D A C G D that's what it's like when you love me and leave me this way A C G D A C G D Like a dove crying out when he's lost the will to fly, yeah A C G D A C G D Shackled down to earth by your long chain of lies, wellWell I can see you dancing in that strangers arms My world hasn’t stopped turning but it’s fallin’ apart Every breath that I take’s a little to sane, yeah They say time is a healer but it’s still a long, long ways away, yeah Chorus I can’t do it today Don’t wanna do it today Bridge: A There’s a part of me that wishes I could just forget G But I haven’t found the mercy yet, ain’t no mercy yet ChorusA G D A I'll forgive you tomorrow if the sun doesn't shine A G D A Let you back into my life when the oceans are dry A G D G Take you back when every shade of the rainbow turns to gray D A C G A C G A But I just can't do it today, I can’t do
