They say you stand by your man

Tell me something I don't understand

And then you left me said you felt trapped

Well, somethings you can explain away

But the heartache's with me till this day

Did you stand by me ? No, not at all
E B E B
Did you stand by me ? No way. Ooh, ooh

E B
All the times that we were close
E B
I remember these things the most
E C#m
I've seen all my dreams come tumblin' down
E B
I can't be happy without you around

So alone I keep the wolves at bay

And there's only one thing I can say

You didn't stand by me ? No way

Without your love I won't make it through
E B
But you don't understand my point of view

I suppose there's nothing I can do
