 1st Verse:
Please show  me there’s something  wrong
 That I  don’t see  in  you
Some  terrible  secret  flaw
 That no  one could  excuse
I  try to  hide you from  my mind
And  make myself  forget
Please don’t  try  to stay
And  make what’s clean a  mess
Run  away girl
Run  away now
 2nd Verse:
The way  that you smile  at me
Isn’t  helping  much  at all
Please try  not to laugh  it only
Makes  me  want you  more
We both  know this could  never be
But  I can’t  let  you go
 (add 3rd fret high e & b string with chord formation)
What  if  you thought  you saw a ghost
A  hundred times a  day
What  if  the thing  you wanted most
 Was impossible  to save
La  La La  La  La La
 (Essentially, the verse chords)
