[Opening]
[D]You’re still in the shower, don’t know [E]where I’m gonna go.
I [F#m]wish I had the power to make this [E]house feel more like home.
[D]I won’t sleep a minute, leave the [E]light on by the bed,
The [F#m]bed you should be in, yeah, it’s not [E]how it’s supposed to end.
[D]Please don’t [A]leave me [E]here, I don’t [A]know where I started.
[F#m]Please don’t [A]leave me [E]here, I don’t [A]know where my heart is.

[verse 2]
[D] [E] [F#m] [Fm] [E]
I’ll [D]see you when I see you, it [E]hurts you’ll never know,
‘Cause [F#m]maybe you’ll come running when you’re [E]done being alone.
I [D]swear I’ll wait forever, if it [E]means not letting go.
I’ll [F#m]put you under pressure; were you [E]scared of getting close?

[chorus]
[D]Please don’t leave me [E]here, I don’t know where I started.
[F#m]Please don’t [A]leave me [E]here, I don’t [A]know where my heart is.

[Closing]
[D] [E] [F#m] [Fm] [E]
[D]All these bridges that we’re [A]burning, tables that we’re [E]turning,
[A]I won’t let this go til I’m in the [F#m]ground.
[A]Promises you’re breaking, parts of mine you’re [E]taking,
[A]I don’t know myself when you’re not around.

[chorus]
[D] [A] [F#m] [A] [E] [A]
[D]Please don’t leave [A]me [E]here, I don’t [A]know where I started.
[F#m]Please don’t [A]leave me [E]here, I don’t know where my heart is.
