Standard tuning, capo 1st position.
      A                A7M
    Before you go walk out on me
    Em          A              D
    Take a look around tell me what you see
    A                    A7M
    Here I stand like an open book
    Em                 A                   D
    Is there something here you might have overlooked
           D             E                   E
    'Cause it would be a shame if you should leave
                  Bm                 E                    A
    And find that freedom ain't what you thought it would be

    The years we had were not all bad

    In fact I know the good outweighed the bad

    Now you say that you've grown tired

    You want to be by yourself a while

    It would be a shame if you should go

    And find that freedom was a long time ago


    D                     E                     A
    I know that you can't stand the chains that bind you
    D                 E           A
    They just keep on drivin' us apart
    D                  E             A
    You could go where I could never find you
                  E       F#m      D                  E
    But could you go far enough to get away from your heart

    Solo:  
A   A7M   Em   A   D

       A                  A7M
    So one more time, for ol' times sake
    Em                A            D
    Come and lay your head upon my chest
    A                       A7M
    Please don't throw this moment away
    Em                A                D
    We can forget the bad and take the best
    D                 E               A       E
    If you don't have nothing left to say
           Bm                E                  A
    Let me hold you one more time for ol' times sake


    D                 E               A       E
    If you don't have nothing left to say
           Bm                E                  A
    Let me hold you one more time for ol' times sake
