Taylor Swift – Say Don’t Go Chords on Piano & Ukulele

[Intro]
D

[Verse 1]
D
 I've known it from
 the very start
Bm
  We’re a shot in the
 darkest dark
G
 Oh no, oh no, I'm unarmed
D
 The waiting is a sadness
Bm
  Fading into madness
G
 Oh no, oh no, it won't stop

[Pre-Chorus]
G
 I’m standin' on a
 D          A
 tightrope alone
I hold my breath a
            G
 little bit longer
                D
Halfway out the door,
              A
 but it won't close
I'm holdin' out, oh,
            G    D      A
for you to say, "Don't go"
I would stay forever
       G    D      A
if you say, "Don't go"

[Chorus]
G                          D
 Why'd you have to lead me on?
                            A
Why you’d have to twist the knife?

Walk away and leave me
bleedin’, bleedin'?
G                         D
 Why’d you whisper in the dark
                        A
Just to leave me in the night?

Now you silence has me
 screamin', screamin'
G           D
(Say) Say, "(Don't)
        A
Don’t (Go) go"

I would stay forever if you
  G           D
 (Say) say, "(Don't)
         A
 Don't (Go) go"
(Say, say, say, say)

[Verse 2]
D
 Now I'm pacin' on shaky ground
Bm
  Strikе a match,
then you blow it out
G
 Oh no, oh no, it's not fair
D
'Cause you kiss me and
it stops timе
Bm
  And I'm yours,
but you're not mine
G
 Oh no, oh no,
you're not there

[Pre-Chorus]
G                    D         A
 I'm standin' on the sidewalk alone

I wait for you to drive by
G                  D
 I'm tryna see the cards
                A
 that you won't show

I'm about to fold unless you
  G           D             A
(Say) say, "(Don't) Don't (Go) go"
I would stay forever if you
  G           D
(Say) say, "(Don't)
         A
Don't (Go) go"
