It would be in your arms
Prechorus/Chorus:
A E F#m D E
Do you wanna see me crawl across the floor to you
A E F#m D E
Do you wanna see me beg you to take me back, I’ll gladly do it because
A Amaj7 A7 D E
I don't want to fade away give me one more day please
A Amaj7 A7 D E F G7
I don't want to fade away, in your heart I long to stay
It's all wrong, but it's all right.
The way that you treat me baby.
Once I was strong but I lost the fight.
You won't find a better loser.

Prechourus/Chorus
Bell bottom blues, don't say goodbye.
I'm sure we're gonna meet again,
And if we do, don't you be surprised
If you find me with another lover.
Prechourus/Chorus
I don't want to fade away.
Give me one more day please.
I don't want to fade away.
In your heart I long to stay.
