[Verse 1]
C F
Can you hold your own while I'm gone?
C F
I swear I won't be gone for long
Dm
Could it be some things never change
F
I think it's just been one of those days
Dm
Too tired to work out what's in front of us
F
Settle down, forget that stuff
Dm
Take a breather, believe in me
F
You can't live your whole life in one evening
Dm F
Promise me while I'm away
That you'll find yourself
[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
C F
I found out right from the start
C F
That I was falling apart
Dm
You were there when I hit the floor
F
After all, what are best friends for?
Dm
Wherever I was you know you were there too
F
Stopping me from what I shouldn't do
Dm
Always saw the good in me
F
And the potential of what I could be
Dm F
I promised you while you were gone
That I would find myself
[Chorus 2]
Am C F

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