G5/B  C5add9    G5/B  C5add9     G5/B  C5add9   D
    I tremble         when I lay       in your arms.

         G5/B      C5add9  G5/B        C5add9  G5/B       C5add9    D
But itīs hard to believe   that youīll stay,   I will not hold you back.

         G5/B      C5add9  G5/B   C5add9        G5/B       C5add9    Asus2
You will always be free,   I know that, I donīt wait for a chance anymore.

(...Asus2...)
I hope you leave before I, I start to ache.


(Chorus:)

C5add9  D     (Dsus4)  C5add9    D      (Dsus4)
You are now or never,  you could stay forever,

C5add9  D    (Dsus4)   Em7  D/F#  G5   D
But I   feel now, that I canīt go on.

C5add9  D     (Dsus4)  C5add9    D      (Dsus4)
You are now or never,  you could stay forever.

I still love you, but I canīt go on.

G5/B  C5add9   G5/B  C5add9        G5/B  C5add9           D
    I gave you       all my warmth,      I thought I had enough.

      G5/B        C5add9 G5/B    C5add9  G5/B           C5add9  D
But I slowly burn low,   disappear,    I canīt feed the flames alone.

          G5/B         C5add9  G5/B    C5add9    G5/B         C5add9     Asus2
It wasnīt meant for us both       to be,     the time and the place were wrong

(...Asus2...)
Why do I ache, when I always knew...

                       Csus2      Asus2             Csus2
You made it happen and I walk away...... overthrown.

          G5/B  C5add9  G5/B  C5add9      G5/B  C5add9   Em
I canīt go,                   passionatly.      Itīs all gone...
