(The 2 guitars continue this picking pattern for the whole song)
[A]Will this night f[G]ulfill all the promises
And [A]bury us in [G]peace?
[A]Will it leave us [G]free and forgetful?
[A]Or at least bring some sl[G]eep?
[D]Your eyes don't catch the [Em]little things
[D]As they narrow on y[Em]our fault
[D]I'm checkin' your pulse, 'cuz [Em]you're so quiet
[D]I'm kissin' you, but [Em]you don't feel it
[G]Why'd you do this to [A]me?
[G]Showin' me that a[A]ll I'm good for
[D]Is to watch you [Em]sleep
[D]As lifeless as an [Em]angel
[A]She was the most beautiful [G]cloud
That ever [A]passed before the face of [G]girl
Seems like [A]nothing's too good for this [G]life
Yeah, [A]some things are too good for this [G]world
[D]And our names and our [Em]faces
[D]Amount to just [Em]spare change
[D]The memory of us a[Em]ll
[D]Kept droppin' [Em]spare change
[G]Why won't you [A]stay?
[G]Why won't you [A]stay?
[G]Why won't you [A]stay?
[G]Why--- won't you [A]stay, hey?
(Instrumental)
[D] [D] [Em] [Em] [D] [D] [G] [G]
[A]A memory of a little [G]girl
[A]Who was far too much in love with the [G]world
And who [A]really didn't wanna stick [G]around for the end
[A]Why won't you [G]stay?
[A]Why won't you [G]stay?
[A]Why won't you [G]stay?
[A]Why won't you [G]stay?
end on D.
