Gavin Degraw — Stay Chords

**Note: Gavin does something interesting at the end of his choruses in this song. Rather
the traditional and expected IV—V—I harmonic resolution, he leaves us on the minor ii
Upon listening to the track, you will notice that neither the F Major chord 
 nor the G Major chord (V)[/ch] quite fit in that spot. Also, I couldn't
out how to get the chords in the right spots over the words, but this is not a
song to pick up so you'll figure it out after a few tries.

Stay

Verse 1:
Am			   C	           F
You don't have to be part of the problem
			C
I just need a second chance
			Gsus
I just need a second chance
Am			       C	          	F
Instead of leaving me standing in sorrow
			     C
I know that you'll understand
			      Gsus
I'm hoping you'll understand

Pre—Chorus:
Dm	        C	      F
I know that I was wrong
	F
But just don't walk away

Chorus:
C		  Dm
Oh, won't you stay
F		     	G
I need you, need you here
C		      Dm
When you're with me
F		     G
All others disappear
C		Dm
I'll follow close
F		G
So close I'll almost touch
C		Dm
I need your love

But it never hurt this much

Verse 2:
Am			C		F
I don't want to be someone who's searching
		        C
I finally met someone
		       Gsus
I finally met someone
Am			       C		      F
And there's a couple of things I'm still learning
		     C
Just gotta figure out
				Gsus
But you need someone who knows

Pre—Chorus:
Dm	      C	     F
I came to you tonight

But now you're just walking away

I need you, need you here

When you're with me

All others disappear
C		Dm
I'll follow close
F		G
So close I'll almost touch
C		Dm
I need your love
Dm
But it never hurt this much

Bridge:
Am		G	       F			C
Don't get caught up in it feeling off course today

You could take a minute before you go slipping away
Dm	     C
I know I took some time

But I realize my mistake

Pre—Chorus:
Am			C	       F
You don't have to be part of the problem

I just need a second chance

All others disappear
C		Dm
I'll follow close

So close I'll almost touch

But it never hurt this much
		Dm	C	G
I need your loving arms tonight

But it never hurt this much
