Capo 4 (you can do Capo 2 but there will be an F#m in it so I decided to make this easier)

G                        Em
Blue moon out my window, guess this means goodnight
Am                                     G
And you come in and start right in not treating me right
G                           Em
Misery's a ball and all its company
Am                                 D
I'll play the victim for you honey but not for free

I run into that heartache just like a wall
And act like nothing happened to me, nothing at all
Lately I'm amazed at how blind we can be
Lately even dreaming feels like old reality

 
Chorus:
C            D            G
What would I give to be a diamond in your eyes again
C            D       G
What would I give to bring back those old times
C          D                G                Em
What did I say to make your cold heart bleed this way
C               D         G
Maybe I'll just go away today
 

I don't care who's waiting at my front door
You know that life don't hold no glamour anymore
Oh how can it all look so right and feel so wrong
I'll play the victim for you honey but not for long

Chorus 2:
What would I give to be a diamond in your eyes again
What would I give to bring back those old times
What did I say to make your past turn up this way
Maybe I'll just go away today

G
Maybe I'll just go away
Em
Maybe I'll just go away
Am              D          G
Maybe I'll just go away to stay
G
Maybe I'll just go away
Em
Maybe I'll just go away
Am                      G
Maybe I'll just go away
