[CAPO 1ST FRET] [Pickup on G]
INTRO: [C] [C] [FFFAm] [G] [C] [C] [FFFAm] [G]
The sign says [C]»Do Not Touch» — you’re [C]out of bounds
You’re for-[Am]bidden fruit, [Am]don’t come around
It says [F]don’t make plans, [F]’cause on your hand
Is a [C]promise made to a-[G]nother man.
Cause [F]when you’re around, my de-[F]fenses go down
[C]Feelings get stronger, [C]looks get longer
The [F]closer you come, the [F]weaker I get
If it [G]ain’t happened now, it just [G]ain’t happened yet.
[NC]So please, please, please [F]go. I’m not [G]strong enough to say [C]no.
[C]Please, please, don’t [F]stay. I’m not [G]man enough to walk a-[C]way.
[C]Please, please pass [F]by. I can’t re-[Am]sist you even though I [F]try;
So please [G]go. I’m not [G]strong enough to say [C]no. [C] [F] [G]
The sign says [C]»Slow Down — [C]Slippery Ice»
You’ve got [Am]dangerous curves, [Am]don’t think twice
It says «[F]Not For Sale,» you’re [F]spoken for
Just [C]take your heart and walk [G]out the door.
Cause [F]when you’re around, my de-[F]fenses go down
[C]Feelings get stronger, [C]looks get longer
The [F]closer you come, the [F]weaker I get
If it [G]ain’t happened now, it just [G]ain’t happened yet.
[NC]So please, please, please [F]go. I’m not [G]strong enough to say [C]no.
[C]Please, please, don’t [F]stay. I’m not [G]man enough to walk a-[C]way.
[C]Please, please pass [F]by. I can’t re-[Am]sist you even though I [F]try;
So please [G]go. I’m not [G]strong enough to say [C]no. [C] [C] [C]
[F] [F] [G] [G]
Don’t [Am]say I didn’t warn you, don’t [Em]say you didn’t know
Don’t [F]wait till it’s too late, and [C]then try to go
The [F]closer you come, the [F]weaker I get
If it [G]ain’t happened now, it just [G]ain’t happened yet.
[NC]I’m beggin you! Baby please, please,
Please [F]go. I’m not [G]strong enough to say [C]no.
[C]Please, please, don’t [F]stay. I’m not [G]man enough to walk a-[C]way.
[C]Please, please pass [F]by. I can’t re-[Am]sist you even though I [F]try;
So please [G]go. I’m not [G]strong enough to say [C]no. [C] [FFFAm] [G]
[C] [C] [FFFAm] [G] (fade out).
