B
What would you have me do
F#
Just turn and walk out on you
     C#m
And leave you standing there
Pretending I don't care
      E
When you know as well as I
 F#
That would be nowhere

Chorus:
   B         E       B E
Shouldn't I be with you
   B         E       B E
Shouldn't I be with you

What would you have me say
After I walk away?
Would it be the end or just a second wind
For the good old song that
we used to call pretending?

Chorus

F#            E          F#                    E
It's not the first time that you had me turn away
F#               E
I don't know it won't be the last time
B              F#
But you got to say it you got to

Should we make a brand new start
Or are you gonna break my heart
And leave me standing there pretending I don't care?
When you know as well as I, that would be nowhere

Chorus:
Shouldn't I be with you?
Shouldn't I be with you?

It's not the first time that you had me turn away
And I know it won't be the last time
But you've got to say it, you've got to

Should we make a brand new start
Or are you gonna break my heart?
Will it be the end or just a second wind
For the good old song that
we used to call pretending?
