When You Walk Away

Tom : E
C#m G#m A E
Here by your side, The candle flickering
C#m G#m A B
The t.v.'s still on, But you're not listening
C#m G#m A E
So I reach for your hand, And the smile that brings
F#m G#m A
A whisper, Asking me to sing
E B A E
Oh,when you walk away, Oh darling, when you walk away
F#m A E
Don't turn around to me, 'Cause I don't want you to see, Me this way
C#m G#m A E
Tremble at first, My voice it comes so hard
C#m G#m A B
I don't want you to see, Me come apart
C#m G#m A E
And then it all opens up, When you show me your heart
F#m G#m A
Rising up, To push away the dark
E B A E
Oh, when you walk away, Oh darling, when you walk away
F#m A E
Don't turn around to me, Cause I don't want you to see
F#m A
Me this way All the things I feel inside
E B
All the anger that is mine, What a tearful lullaby
F#m A
But you brush those tears aside
C#m A B
How can one that's laid so low, Lift me up so high? Where do I go
C#m G#m A E
To try and put things right? And if I tear out my heart
C#m G#m A B
Will the stars ignite? And to whom do I rage
C#m G#m A E
Against the dying of the light? On this a long day's
F#m G#m A
journey, Into night
E B A E
Oh, when you walk away, Oh darling, when you walk away
F#m A E
Don't turn around to me, Cause I don't want you to see, Me this way
C#m G#m A E
Somewhere I'm told, There is a world of grace
C#m G#m A B
That will take those hard lines, From your face
C#m G#m A E
But until that day comes,I'll be right here in my place
F#m G#m A
Just a man, Just a kiss, Just in case
