Tuning - Standard ( )
Intro -
Verse 1
I count the steps from where I am
To where I started
I tap my feet and close the door
To your apartment
And I know you re never gonna understand
Its too late for you to stop and think
Too late to mention
I make a move and spill my drink
To break the tension
And I know youre never gonna understand
I ll try my best to follow if I can, but...
Chorus
I would have let you leave
I would have let you leave
I would have let you leave
Verse 2 - Same as Verse 1
The static waves across the screen
Define this notion
Back and forth and in between
Like my emotion
And I know youre never gonna understand
And won t you slow this down oh if you can
You swayed your hips and stole the breathe
That I was taking
I touched your lips and held your hand
When they were shaking
Chorus 2 - Same as Chorus 1
Look how we ve fallen upon our knees
How we forgot it
These empty halls held our disease
Before we caught it
Now out the door and down the stairs from your apartment
I would have let you leave
Bridge - Same as Verses
Chorus 3 - Same as Chorus 1 & 2
The static waves across the screen
Define this notion
Back and forth and in between
Like my emotion
Now out the door and down the stairs
From your apartment
I count the steps from where I am
To where I started
Outro
I would have let you (x2)
I would have let you leave
