Let me tell you some more

Washing the dishes scrubbing the floors

Caring for someone who don't care anymore

E7                                                     A
Learning to hate all the things that she once loved to do

Like washing his shirts and never complaining except of red stains on the collars

D
After carefully considering

    G         D                                 A7
The whole situation I stand with my back to the wall

 D                     G       D                       A          G   D
Walking is better than running away and crawling ain't no good at all

And if guilt is the question truth is the answer I've been lying to me all along

            D                     G          D
There ain't nothing worth saving except one another

                       A          G    D
And before you'll wake up I'll be gone
[Chorus]
     D
'Cuz after carefully considering

    G         D                                 A7
The whole situation I stand with my back to the wall

Walking is better than running away and crawling ain't no good at all

And crawling ain't no good at all
