                F                A#
Felt like the stars fell down before us
       F              A#
In a dream of you and me
        F                A#
then a storm came outta nowhere
           F           A#
Turned my peace to misery.

Chorus:
         C    Dm              Am
Cause I been runnin' now for days
A#                        F
Pickin' up the pieces of love
    Dm                  Am
I'm not so sure it I'll go my way
A#                        F
That's just the price of love.
     Dm              Am
I am oh so tired of loneliness
A#                   F
But the world don't change
       Dm                     Am
and I can't have you, you've gone away
A#                  C                       F
You were the reason, you are the reason I stay.

This fairy tale that you painted for me
You only see what you wanna see
But i'm inclined to tell you somethin'
You never show me how you cared for me

Chorus

  Am      A#
I stay (I stay)
   A#                 Am
I stay (The reason I stay)
   Am       A#
I stay (Oh yeah)
     A#        F
The reason I stay
