C                  F
You mean to say
       Em               Am    F
After all the years of lovin'
       Em               Am    G
After all the tears are far away
      C               F
You could throw away
         Em                Am     F
All the dreams we build together
         Em                  Am        G
Can't believe you mean the things you say
C                    Dm
I remember you in a loving way
        F              G
In your eyes, in your face
       C                        Dm
And I think about a man with a lot to say
       F            G      G   Bm
In my mind, in my place
           A           Am
By the way, by the way
                            G    Bm
What can I do to make you stay?
           A            Am
By the way, by the way
                           G
What can I do to make you stay?

        C          F
Now I find myself
         Em           Am         F
Begging for the very first time
        Em              Am    G   
On my knees I crawl to you today
C                    Dm
I remember you in a loving way
        F              G
In your eyes, in your face
       C                       Dm
And I think about a man with a lot to say
       F            G    Bm
In my mind, in my place
           A            Am
By the way, by the way
                            G     Bm
What can I do to make you stay?
           A           Am
By the way, by the way
                            G
What can I do to make you stay?
