[Chorus]
B E I could not escape A A plea from the heart D B You know what it means to me E She said don't walk away A I'm down on my knees D B So please don't be mean to me
[Verse 2]
E A C#m So I talked to you for an hour A Bsus4 B In the bar of a small town hotel E A C#m You asked me what I was thinking Bsus4 B I was thinking of a padded cell A E With a black and white T.V. G# A To stop us from getting lonely
[Chorus]
B E I could not escape A A plea from the heart D B You know what it means to me E She said don't walk away A I'm down on my knees D B So please don't be mean to me E No, I could not escape A A plea from the heart D B Mysterious sympathy E I couldn't wait for a chance A To walk out the door D B You know what it means to me
