This is the bare bones of the song very simple and straight.  The main riff

is the only pain.  It comes with a little practice but is easy once you get

that fluid sound that Steve uses.



Lyrics



This is not the first time - you tried to get away.

This is not a party - where people know your name.

This is not a classroom - with teacher at the board.

This is not a cat show - with prizes at the door.



|Chorus|

	Go - Don't you go.

	Won't you stay with me one more day.

	If we get through one more night.

	If we get through one more night.



This is not a horse race - where winner beats the time.

This is not a funeral - with mourners in a line.

This is not a sitcom - where everything's alright.

This is not a prison - with terror through the night.



|Chorus|
