A                            D                  A
When you love somebody with all your heart and soul
                                             E                A
And you want to keep them with you, but you know they want to go
            D                 A
What do you do, what do you say
                                             E                A
When you know they want to leave, as bad as you want them to stay

A                                      D
And there's nothing quite as sad as a one-sided love
A                                      E          A
When one doesn't care at all and the other cares too much
                              D
It's a sad situation, I must say
A                      E                                A
When someone wants to leave, as bad as you want them to stay

A                                    D                  A
You know how much I love you, but I know you don't love me
                                  E               A
And I know it's just a matter of time before you leave
                                  D            A
But I do, I stand aside and just let you walk away
                                        E              A
But I know you want to leave, as bad as I want you to stay

A                                      D
And there's nothing quite as sad as a one-sided love
A                                      E          A
When one doesn't love at all and the other loves too much
                        D
It's a sad situation I must say
A                                      E                A
When someone wants to leave as bad as you want them to stay
                            D
Oh, it's a sad situation I must say
A                                      E                A
When someone wants to leave as bad as you want them to stay
