Told you not to [Fm]worry, but maybe that’s a [Cm]lie
Honey, what’s your [Fm]hurry, won’t you stay [Cm]inside?
Remember not to [Fm]get too close to stars
They’re never gonna [Cm]give you love like ours


[Cm]Where did you go? I should know, [Cm]but it’s cold.
And I don’t [Gm]wanna be lonely, so show me the way [Fm]home.
[Fm]I can’t lose [Cm]another life.
Hurry, I’m [Gm]worried…


The world’s a little [Fm]blurry, or maybe it’s my [Cm]eyes.
The friends I’ve had to [Fm]bury, they keep me up at [Cm]night.
Said I couldn’t love [Fm]someone ’cause I might break.
If you’re gonna [Cm]die, not by mistake.


So, [Cm]where did you go, I should know, [Cm]but it’s cold.
And I don’t [Gm]wanna be lonely, so tell me you’ll come [Fm]home.
Even if it’s just a [Cm]lie.


I tried not to [Cm]upset you, let you rescue me the day I [Gm]met you.
I just wanted to [Fm]protect you, but now I’ll never [Cm]get to.
Hurry, I’m [Gm]worried.


[Fm] [Cm]
[Cm]Where did you go, I should know, [Cm]but it’s cold.
And I don’t [Gm]wanna be lonely
Was hoping you’d come [Fm]home
I don’t care if it’s a [Cm]lie
