[Intro]
Dm     G    x2
[Strophe]
Am                     Bm 
How can I just let you walk away 
             C               Dm 
Just let you leave without a trace, 
       F                 G                 Em   Am 
When I stand here taking every breath with you, ooh. 
           Dm           F                 G 
You're the only one who really knew me at all. 
Am                    Bm 
How can you just walk away from me, 
         C                     Dm 
When all I can do is watch you leave, 
            F                   G 
Cause we've shared the laughter and the pain, 
    Em              Am 
And even shared the tears. 
           Dm           F                 G      G7 
You're the only one who really knew me at all.
[Refrain]
                     C 
So take a look at me now 
                      D 
Cause there's just an empty space, 
            Am                   F 
And there's nothing left here to remind me, 
         Dm             G 
Just the memory of your face. 
          G7         C 
Oh take a look at me now 
                      D 
Cause there's just an empty space, 
               Am            F 
And you coming back to me is against the odds, 
           Dm               G        G7 
And that's what I've got to face.
[Strophe]
  Am                         Bm 
I wish I could just make you turn around, 
C                      Dm 
Turn around and see me cry, 
           F              G 
There's so much I need to say to you, 
   Em           Am 
So many reasons why. 
           Dm           F                 G       G7 
You're the only one who really knew me at all.
[Refrain]
                     C 
So take a look at me now 
                      D 
Cause there's just an empty space, 
            Am                   F 
And there's nothing left here to remind me, 
         Dm             G 
Just the memory of your face.  
          G7         C 
Oh take a look at me now 
                      D 
Cause there's just an empty space, 
       Am                        F 
But to wait for you, well that's all I can do, 
           Dm               G 
And that's what I've got to face. 
            G7         C 
Take a good look at me now 
                    D 
Cause I'll still be standing here, 
               Am            F 
And you coming back to me is against all odds, 
         Dm                 G       G7 
It's the chance I've got to take
