[Intro] C  Em  D
 
[First Part]

C
No more barricades, slowly diffusing
Em                  D
I'll be leaving now, nobody's losing
C
If you could play a part, stay in resistance
Em                  D
Every fault would fade into the distance
 
[Chorus]

C
Run if you like
G                      D
All of the things that you left behind
C
Hold me down
G                  D
You can't deny and I can't deny
C
Open your eyes
G                   D
I'll look away and you come around
C
To build your words
G                D
High enough to carry you over
Am
And I never would've given you up (never would've given you up, you up)
Em
If you only hadn't given me up (only hadn't given me up, me up)
Am
Then I never would've given you up (never would've given you up, you up)
Em                               D
If you only hadn't given me up (only hadn't given me up, me up)
 
[Pre-Chorus]

C
No more clarity, only confusion
Em                      D
Every focused thought, just an illusion
C
If I could see you now, if you would listen
Em                   D
Every fault would fade into the distance
 
[Chorus]

C
Run if you like
G                      D
All of the things that you left behind
C
Hold me down
G                  D
You can't deny and I can't deny
C
Open your eyes
G                   D
I'll look away and you come around
C
To build your words
G                D
High enough to carry you over
Am
And I never would've given you up (never would've given you up, you up)
Em
If you only hadn't given me up (only hadn't given me up, me up)
Am
Then I never would've given you up (never would've given you up, you up)
Em                               D
If you only hadn't given me up (only hadn't given me up, me up)
 
[Pre-Chorus]

        C  Em  D
And you are
      C                       Em   D
If I only hadn't given you up
       C                       Em
If you only hadn't given me up
        D
And you are
     C                        Em
If I only hadn't given you up
D
Losin' my breath and leaving' the rest
 
[Chorus]

C
Run if you like
G                      D
All of the things that you left behind
C
Hold me down
G                  D
You can't deny and I can't deny
C
Open your eyes
G                   D
I'll look away and you come around
C
To build your words
G                D
High enough to carry you over
Am
And I never would've given you up (never would've given you up, you up)
Em
If you only hadn't given me up (only hadn't given me up, me up)
Am
Then I never would've given you up (never would've given you up, you up)
Em                               D
If you only hadn't given me up (only hadn't given me up, me up)
Am
Then I never would've given you up (never would've given you up, you up)
Em
If you only hadn't given me up (only hadn't given me up, me up)
Am
Then I never would've given you up (never would've given you up, you up)
Em                               D
If you only hadn't given me up (only hadn't given me up, me up)
