INTRO
 
B            G#m                             E 
Baby if you could would you go back to the start? 
B               G#m                          E 
Take any fresh steps or watch it all fall apart, again 
 
VERSE 1:
 
B            G#m                      E 
Play another song here then you can leave 
B                   G#m                      E 
With your delicate wings, I use to weave 
 
PRE-CHORUS 1:
 
C#m               B 
Maybe there's an under-tow here. 
F#                E 
Or maybe this is stuck up in the air 
                  B                               F# 
I know how it looks but all that glitters ain't gold 
 
 
        E                                                         
        You gave me magical             
        F#                                                         
        I gave you wonderful                                      
        B                   G#m                                    
        Cut that invisible cord or I'll starve you of             
        E                       F#                               
        What's understandable, let's make immeasurable            
        G#m                                     (A#m second time) 
        Moves to the left or the right but not central 'cause.    
 
 
 
POST-CHORUS
 
B 
You gave me magical 
E 
I gave you wonderful 
G#m 
Let's make this biblical 
F# 
And hang from our invisible cords 
 
VERSE 2:
 
B            G#m                             E 
Baby if you could would you go back to the start? 
B               G#m                         E 
Take any fresh steps or watch it all fall apart, again 
 
PRE-CHORUS 2:
 
C#m                     B               F# 
It could have been a wonderful year 
                      E 
Instead we might not make it to the end 
            B               F# 
Everybody cares but nobody knows 
 
CHORUS (2x) 
 
POST CHORUS (x2)

Baby how can you walk away? Baby how can you walk away? 
F# 
Baby how can you walk away? Baby how can you walk away? 
 
B            G#m                             E 
Baby if you could would you go back to the start? 
B               G#m                         E 
Take any fresh steps or watch it all fall apart, again
