INTRO: F Bb F
Baby, how could I have been so vain
To make you feel like you're the only one to [Bb]blame
For all these distances and [F]none of this pain
Baby, how could I have been so blind
To presuppose that your needs were just like [Bb]mine
You've been a prisoner for a [F]long, long time
CHORUS:
'Cause now you [C]run from me and I will [Bb]set you free
If that's the [F]way it must be
I tried so hard to make you part of me
That every time I looked at you I thought I'd [Bb]see
Someone that you could never, [F]ever be
So full of pride, I could not see straight
I thought you'd change, if'n I could only [Bb]wait
I see the truth now, but it's [F]much too late
CHORUS:
'Cause now you [C]run from me and I will [Bb]set you free
If that's the [F]way it must be
BRIDGE:
Oh oh oh [Dm]oh oh, how'd it ever get so [Bb]cold and [F]mean
Oh oh oh [Dm]oh oh, is there nothing left but [Bb]silence in be[C]tween [F][Bb][F]
Oh oh oh [Dm]oh oh, how'd it ever get so [Bb]cold and [F]mean
Oh oh oh [Dm]oh oh, is there nothing left but [Bb]silence in be[C]tween [F]
Baby, how'd we hold on so long
To something both of us must have known was [Bb]wrong
We're either fools, or must be [F]terribly strong
CHORUS:
'Cause now you [C]run from me and I will [Bb]set you free
If that's the [F]way it must be
'Cause now you [C]run from me and I will [Bb]set you free
If that's the [F]way it must be
'Cause now you [C]run from me and I will [Bb]set you free
If that's the [F]way it must be
