[Intro]
Am G C F

[Verse 1]
Am G C F
Like a childhood room when you’re home for a long weekend
Am G C F
Everything’s the same but it all feels different
Am G
I remember when I used to
C F
know that I was safe next to you
Am G
Now I’m standing in the same place
C F
And I don’t feel anything at all

[Chorus]
Am G C F
‘Cause letting go of you feels like I’m letting go of me
Am G C F
Without you here I won’t know who I am or who to be
Am G C F
If I walk away I’m scared I’ll never see you again
Am G C F
But I’m fighting for a memory, I’m starting to forget
Am G
‘Cause the thought of losing you is sinking in

[Instrumental]
Am G C F

[Verse 2]
Am G C F
You were the ground that I used to stand on
Am G C F
Now the familiar’s gone and I’m trying to hold on
Am G
I’ve been trying to resist it
C F
Tryna keep it at a distance, oh
Am G
But I’m standing in the same place
C F
And I don’t feel anything at all

[Instrumental]
Am G C F

Don’t leave me here, don’t leave me here

Don’t leave me here

Don’t leave me here

Don’t leave me here, don’t leave me here
F
Don’t leave me here
Am G C
Don’t leave me here, don’t leave me here
