I walked out of your apartment, I left you sleeping on [G] your bed.
I wanted to look back over [F] my shoulder, [C]
but I did not turn my [G]
head.
We [C] had a good arrangement.
But now I felt the [G] need to move.
But things had not worked out [Em] like a pain,
because I'd [C] become attached [G] to you.
