G D
I Am a woman
Em
Cut in two
F
By ambitious pride
G D
Stuck in my ways
Em
Between you
F
And my other life
Am C
Now I have been around enough to know when love has ended
Am D
But I believe that you and I deserve to be extended
G D
So why don't you try
Em
To make me stay
F
When it's time to go
G D
Why don't you try
Em
To stand in my way
F
Cause we both know
G
I can't stop myself
D
Our empty house
Em
You occupy
F
When I'm far away
G D Em
Heavier hearts won't justify
F
Why I'm gone today

Am C
Now I have hung a cloud above our lives from always leaving
Am D
Figured you would at least make me give a better reason
G D
So why don't you try
Em
To make me stay
F
When it's time to go
G D
Why don't you try
Em
To stand in my way
F
Cause we both know
G
I can't stop myself
Instrumental part: G D Em F x2
(I have no idea how this part is really played in the recording so I just put that
chord progression instead)
Am D
In the early mornings when I'm up before dawn
Am D
You say "why don't you stay" but you keep sleeping on
G F Em
Maybe you're just used to me being gone
Am D
Cause if you know that I don't want to go
G D Em
So why don't you try
F
When it's time to go
G D
Why don't you try
Em
To stand in my way
F
Cause we both know
G
I can't stop myself
D
Why don't you
Em
Why don't you try
F
When it's time to go, oh
G
Cause I don't want to have to go
D
And be the one to leave you holding on alone
Em
But this, this is my goodbye
F
So why don't you try
G D Em F x2
End on G
