Intro
[Am] [Am/G] [F]
[C] [E7] [F]
[C] [Gadd4/B] [A7]
[F] [G] [C(add2] [C)]
You could [C]stay a while [Gadd4/B]longer
We could [Am]stay up and talk [Am/G]about last [F]summer
We could [C]go down to the [Gadd4/B]water
Watch the [Am]sunset [Am/G]going [F]under
It's [Am]not that I'm a [Am/G]stranger to lonely [F]moments
I've [C]had my [E7]share of [F]those[G#]
Please don't [C]go
Please don't [Em7/B]leave me [A7]alone
F G C(add2 -> C)
A mirror is so much harder to hold
I could [C]try and point the [Gadd4/B]finger
Am Am/G F (G->C walk)
But the glass points in my direction
Sure you've [C]got your sharp [Gadd4/B]edges
But my [Am]wounds are for my [Am/G]own re[F]flection
[(/E)]You've got [Am]nothing I could[Am/G] ever hold against [F]you
I've got [C]fatal flaws to [E7]call my [F]own[G#]
Please don't [C]go
Please don't [Em7/B]leave me [A7]alone
F G C(add2 -> C)
A mirror is so much harder to hold
I [Dm]met a man who's looking for per[G]fection
Said he'd [Dm]never met a girl who's good eno[G]ugh
His [E]eyes are getting [E7]old like they'd [F]love to love again
Such a [Am]lonely ma[Am/G]n[D/F#]
Such a [G]lonely ma[(G7)]n
I see [C]him in my re[Gadd4/B]flection
Am Am/G F (G->C walk)
Taking steps towards me these days
So I [C]hold you that much [Gadd4/B]closer
And [Am]pray we don't [Am/G]throw this a[F]way
It's not [Am]that I'm a [Am/G]man who couldn't [F]love you
I [C]know what these [E7]arms are [F]for[G#]
Please don't [C]go
Please don't [Em7/B]leave me [A7]alone
A [F]mirror is so much [G]harder to [C]hold[Gadd4/B]
Am Am/G F (G->C walk)
A mirror is so much harder to hold
Please don't [C]go
Please [Em7/B]don't leave me [A7]cold
F G C(add2 -> C)
A mirror is so much harder to hold
