Verse 1:
                 D A/C#
You say you stand 
           D A/C#
by your man 
                 D A/C#
Tell me something 
                  D A/C#
I don't understand 
             D
You said you loved me
             Bm
and that's a fact 
             D A/C#
The you left me 
                     D A/C#
said you felt trapped 


Refrain 1:
          D
Well some things you 
               A
can't explain away 
        Bm
But the heartache's 
                  D
with me till this day 


Chorus:
                      D A/C#
You didn't stand by me 
             D A/C#
No not at all 
                      D A/C#
You didn't stand by me 
      D A/C#
No way 


Verse 2:
             D A/C#
All the times 
                  D A/C#
when we were close 
          D  A/C#
I'll remember 
                     D A/C#
these things the most 
      D
I see all my dreams 
              Bm
come tumbling down 
              D A/C#
I can't be happy 
                  D A/C#
without you around 


Refrain 2:
    D
So alone I keep 
              A
the wolves at bay 
            Bm
And there's only 
                D
one thing I can say 


(Repeat chorus)


Bridge:
         D      A Bm    
You must explain 
                D A/C# D A/C#
why this must be 
        D  A Bm
Did you lie 
                     D A/C# D A/C#
when you spoke to me? 
                    D A/C#
Did you stand be me? 
             D A/C#
No not at all 


Verse 3:
               D A/C#
Now I got a job
                D A/C#
but it don't pay 
                  D A/C#
I need new clothes 
                        D A/C#
I need somewhere to stay 
    D
But without all of 
                   Bm
these things I can do 
                      D A/C#
But without your love
                       D A/C#
I won't make it through 


Refrain 3:
        D
But you don't understand 
            A
my point of view 
     Bm
I suppose there 
              D
nothing I can do 


(Repeat Chorus twice)


Outro:
         D      A Bm    
You must explain 
                D A/C# D A/C#
why this must be 
        D  A Bm
Did you lie 
                     D A/C# D A/C#
when you spoke to me? 
                    D A/C# D A/C#
Did you stand be me?
