[Intro]
F   C/E Dm   C Bbsus2   F/A C   C7
F   C/E Dm   C Bbsus2   F/A C
 
 
[Verse 1]
F                            C/E    Dm
  They met at school, that's how it goes
                Cadd9  Bbsus2
Some drinks and then a rose
              F/A  C
Then plans to meet again
F                     C/E        Dm
  He wrote her poems, songs, and prose
              C       Bbsus2
She knew that he'd propose
         F/A      C
She only wondered when
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Gm Dm                       C       F
      One night before they went to bed
   C/E             Bbsus2
He kneeled on both knees
            F/A     C   C7
And this is what he said:
 
[Chorus]
  Gm  F      Bbsus2  Cadd9
I may not be wise
    Dm      Cadd9    Bbsus2
And I won't save the day
Fm  F          Bbsus2  Cadd9
But look in my eyes
    Dm        Cadd9  Bbsus2
And know I'll always stay
    Bbm          F
And I won't run away
Bbm          F   C/E Dm   Cadd9 Bbsus2   F/A C   C7
I won't run away
 
[Verse 2]
F                         C/E   Dm
  Some years went by they had a child
              Cadd9        Bbsus2
He was funny, strange, and mild
               F/A     C
Their love for him ran deep
F                              C/E       Dm
  Some nights his dreams would drive him wild
        C       Bbsus2            F/A  C
So into bed she piled to help him fall asleep
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Gm Dm                      C      F
     One night he couldn't get to bed
       C/E             Bbsus2
So she kneeled on both knees
            F/A      C    C7
And this is what she said:
 
[Chorus]
  Gm  F      Bbsus2 Cadd9
I may not be wise
    Dm      Cadd9    Bbsus2
And I won't save the day
Fm  F          Bbsus2 Cadd9
But look in my eyes
    Dm        Cadd9  Bbsus2
And know I'll always stay
    Bbm          F
And I won't run away
Bbm          F   C/E Dm   Cadd9 Bbsus2   F/A Dm   C   C7
I won't run away
 
[Verse 3]
F                    C/E     Dm
  You say it's safer on your own
             Cadd9 Bbsus2
You'd rather sleep alone
             F/A     C
Then grow to need me there
F                C/E     Dm
  But I hope now you can see
                C          Bbsus2
What my mom and dad showed me
              F/A C
I'm not going any-where
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Gm Dm                    C         F
     I love you more and more each day
   C/E            Bbsus2
To love is not to leave
           F/A    C   C7
So hear me when I say:
 
[Chorus]
  Gm    F    Bbsus2 Cadd9
I may not be wise
    Dm      Cadd9    Bbsus2
And I won't save the day
Fm  F          Bbsus2 Cadd9
But look in my eyes
    Dm        Cadd9  Bbsus2
And know I'll always stay
    Bbm          F    C/E Dm   Cadd9 Bbsus2   F/A C/G   F   C/E Dm   C Bb
And I won't run away
Bbm          F
I won't run away
