INTRO 
Bm  F#m  Em  x2 
 
VERSE I 
Bm                      F#m                                  Em 
Some say I'll be better without you, but they don't know you like I do 
 
Or at least the sides I thought I knew 
        Bm                               F#m 
I can't bear this time, it drags on as I lose my mind 
            Em 
Reminded by things I find, like notes and clothes you've left behind 
Bm                          F#m 
Wake me up, wake me up when all is done 
                        Em 
I won't rise until this battle's won, my dignity's become undone 
 
 
    Em F#m   G     G           A     F#m 
But I  won't go, I can't do it on my own 
   F#m              G       Em 
If this ain't love, then what is? 
    Em         F#m      Bm 
I'm willing to take the risk 
Em F#m   G     G           A     F#m 
 I won't go, I can't do it on my own 
   F#m              G       Em 
If this ain't love, then what is? 
    Em         F#m      Bm 
I'm willing to take the risk 
 
VERSE II 
   Bm                          F#m 
So petrified, I'm so scared to step into this ride 
                            Em 
What if I lose my heart and fail, declined 
 
I won't forgive me if I give up trying 
            Bm                             F#m 
I heard his voice today, I didn't know a single word he said 
                           Em 
Not one resemblance to the man I met, just a vacant broken boy instead 
 
 
    Em F#m   G     G           A     F#m 
But I  won't go, I can't do it on my own 
   F#m              G       Em 
If this ain't love, then what is? 
    Em         F#m      Bm 
I'm willing to take the risk 
Em F#m   G     G           A     F#m 
 I won't go, I can't do it on my own 
   F#m              G       Em 
If this ain't love, then what is? 
       Em         F#m      Em... 
I, I'm willing to take the risk 
 
BRIDGE 
         ...F#m                     Bm 
There will be times, we'll try and give it up 
                          (D) 
Bursting at the seams, no doubt 
Em                                   F#m 
   We'll almost fall apart, then burn to pieces 
G                                  F# 
   So watch them turn to dust, but nothing will ever taint us 
 
 
Em F#m   G     G           A     F#m 
 I won't go, I can't do it on my own 
   F#m              G       Em 
If this ain't love, then what is? 
    Em         F#m      Bm 
I'm willing to take the risk 
Em F#m   G     G           A     F#m 
 I won't go, I can't do it on my own 
   F#m              G       Em 
If this ain't love, then what is? 
       Em         F#m      Bm... 
I, I'm willing to take the risk 
 
 
VERSE III 
                  ...F#m 
Will he, will he still remember me? 
                           Em 
Will he still love me even when he's free? 
                                                                Bm 
Or will he go back to the place where he will choose the poison over me? 
                  F#m                                          Em 
When we spoke yesterday, he said to hold my breath and sit and wait 
 
I'll be home so soon, I won't be late 
 
 
Em F#m   G      G           A      F#m 
He won't go, he can't do it on his own 
   F#m              G       Em 
If this ain't love, then what is? 
     Em         F#m      Bm 
He's willing to take the risk 
  Em F#m   G      G           A      F#m 
So I won't go, he can't do it on his own 
   F#m              G       Em 
If this ain't love, then what is? 
    Em         F#m      Bm 
I'm willing to take the risk 
 
CHORUS 
       Em F#m   G      G           A      F#m 
'Cause he won't go, he can't do it on his own 
   F#m              G       Em 
If this ain't love, then what is? 
      Em         F#m      Bm 
We're willing to take the risk 
Em F#m   G     G           A    F#m 
 I won't go, I can't do it on my own 
   F#m              G       Em 
If this ain't love, then what is? 
    Em         F#m      Bm     (F# Bm) 
I'm willing to take the risk.
