[Verse 1]
E A
Can you hold your own while I'm gone?
E A
I swear I won't be gone for long
F#m
Could it be some things never change
A
I think it's just been one of those days
F#m
Too tired to work out what's in front of us
A
Settle down, forget that stuff
F#m
Take a breather, believe in me
A
You can't live your whole life in one evening
F#m A
Promise me while I'm away
That you'll find yourself
[Chorus]
E A E A
F#m A F#m A
[Verse 2]
E A
I found out right from the start
E A
That I was falling apart
F#m
You were there when I hit the floor
A
After all, what are best friends for?
F#m
Wherever I was you know you were there too
A
Stopping me from what I shouldn't do
F#m
Always saw the good in me
A
And the potential of what I could be
F#m A
I promised you while you were gone
That I would find myself
[Chorus 2]
C#m E A

[Verse 3]
C#m E A
I don't know when you'll come my way
C#m E A#m
Another time, another place
F#m A
Can you hold your own while you are gone?
F#m A
Have you been there all along?
F#m A
Promise me while I'm away
