Intro: Dm - G    Dm - G 
 
    Am                    Bm 
1. 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. 
                          C                           D 
    So take a look at me now, '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                           D 
   Ooh, take a look at me now, '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. 
      Am                         Bm 
2. 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. 
                          C                           D 
    So take a look at me now, '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                           D 
    Now, take a look at me now, '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                          D 
    Take a good look at me now, 'cause I'll still be standing here, 
                    Am              F 
    and you coming back to me is against all odds, 
               Dm                 G   - G7    Dm - G    Dm - G 
    it's the chance I've got to take. 
            G7         Dm    - G 
    Take a look at me now
