[Verse]
Bm         A         Bm         A
Haven't we been here before

Bm              A         Bm           A
Footsteps lead down to the note on the door

           Bm           A         E
That says, I can't stay here anymore

Bm              A         Bm    A
And haven't we felt this same way

Bm              A         Bm            A
Sure in our hearts, but afraid just the same

        Bm           A          G
To say, I can't stay one minute more
[Pre-Chorus]
           Em
You might think that it's hopeless

 A
Beyond our control

   Em                      A
But that's not necessarily so

           G
Can't you see there's a chance

            A
For the daring young soul

       G                     A
Who's finally learned to say no

      Em             A7
No, I won't be misused

    Em         A7
Ignored or refused

        G                       A
And I won't just give up and let go
[Chorus]
   D         A      Bm         A
So tonight, hold me close to you

     D         A    Bm             A
And don't give up what's important to you

    Em      G      A
And as time rolls on

   Em      G      A
Nothing can stand in our way

      D            Dmaj7          Bm
(And I) I believe if we learn from the past

 A          Em     G            A
We'd say, haven't we been here before

     D            Dmaj7          Bm
(And I) I believe if we open our hearts

A          Em     G            A
We'd find keys to unlock every door
[Post-Chorus]
Bm              A
Dark would turn into light

G
We'd be strong

A
We'd be right
[Chorus]
   D         A      Bm         A
So tonight, hold me close to you

     D         A    Bm             A
And don't give up what's important to you

    Em      G      A
And as time rolls on

   Em      G      A
Nothing will stand in our way

     D            Dmaj7          Bm
(And I) I believe if we learn from the past

 A          Em     G            A
We'd say, haven't we been here before

     D            Dmaj7          Bm
(Oh, and I) I believe if we open our hearts

A          Em     G            A
We'd find keys to unlock every door
[Post-Chorus]
Bm                                 A                 
Hearts could change (Don't say no) overnight (Don't say no)

 G                               A
We'd be strong... (Don't say no) we'd be right
[Outro]
Em              A
So stay with me now

Em              A
The future is ours

G                          Bb  
And we'll be the ones who go on
