[Intro]
Am  C  F#m   E   Am
 
[Verse 1]
Am
You see my oldest friend
                             E
Tell her that I’m gone again
Am                     Dm
You take my old guitar
                             F#m
The one that I once said was ours
         E
Don’t be blue
 
[Verse 2]
Am               G
You hum that old tune
    F#m
The one I used to sing for you
              E
When we were alone
Am                 G
You ask her if she knew
F#m
Was this something I would do?
         E     D  Dm
From the start
 
[Chorus]
C            Am      F  Dm
Please don’t pass me by
       C             Am         F
If I'm walking but I don’t know why
     C                Am      F
It's something that I have to try
Dm      C            Am         F  Dm  Am  C  F#m   E
Can you love me if I put up a fight?
 
[Verse 3]
Am             C
Take my old guitar
F#m
And sell it off for parts
       E
As you should
Am          C
Take my old tune
B7                     F
Turn it into something new
    E7       Dm   N.C.
Something good
 
[Chorus]
C            Am      F  Dm
Please don’t pass me by
       C             Am         F
If I'm walking but I don’t know why
     C                Am      F
It's something that I have to try
Dm      C            Am         F  Dm  Am  C  F#m   E
Can you love me if I put up a fight?
 
[Verse 4]
Am                         Dm       G
Is it something you make a habit of?
                  C                     Am
That's not what I need from love, right now
      Cmaj7      Am         F#m E7 G
Right now, right now, right now
 
[Outro]
Dm  B   E   Am  C  F#m  E   Am
              You see my oldest friend
Tell her that I'm gone again
You take my old guitar
One that I once said was ours
Don't be blue

You haul that old tune
One I used to sing for you
When we were alone
You ask her if she knew
Was this something I would do?
From the start

Please don't pass me by
If I'm walking but I don't know why
It something that I have to try
Can you love me if I put up a fight?

Take my old guitar
And sell it off for parts
As you should
Take my old tune
Turn it into something new
Something good

Please don't pass me by
If I'm walking but I don't know why
I can't keep you off of my mind
Can you love me if I put up a fight?

Is it something you've made a habit of?
It's not what I need from love, right now
Right now, right now, right now
