Capo 4
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, well
A 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
Well 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
Chorus
