When I Can Afford To Lose Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]two years, [G]three months,
[Am]five [F]days,
i've been tryin' to [G]climb this wall.
two [C]years, three [G]months, five [Am]days,[F]
well, please don't let [G]me fall.[F]
understand, [G]my dear,
[F]when you come walkin' nea[G]r,
i want [Am]you back again
'cause i [F]know that i can't [G]win.
[F]it's not for me [G]to choose.
i'll take [F]you back again,
when [G]i can afford to lose.
[C][G][Am]

[Verse 2]
[C]
i see your [G]picture on [Am]my table[F]
and your ghost is sleepin' in my [G]bed.[C]
your [G]goodbye [Am]still rattles and
rattles and rattles [F]around
like thunder through my [G]head.
[F]so i'll have one more cigar[G]ette
[F]and hope that soon i will for[G]get
when [Am]you walked in..
[F]'cause i know that i can't [G]win.
[F]it's not for me to [G]choose.
i'll take you [F]back again,
when [G]i can afford to l[C]ose.[G][Am]
[G]take you back [F]again,
when [G]i can afford to [C]lose.[Dm]
don't leave me [G]hangin' on this

[Verse 3]
[C]
borderline.
the [Am]things i could do with a [F]whisper from you [G]could just

[Interlude 1]
blow your mind.
[C][G][Am][F][G]
[F]
and understand, [G]my dear,

[Verse 4]
[F]
when you come walkin' [G]near,
i want [A]you [Am]back again
[F]'cause i know that i can't [G]win.
[F]it's not for me to [G]choose.
i'll take you [F]back again,
when [G]i can afford [C]to lose.[G][Am]
[G]take you back [F]again,
when [G]i can afford [C]to lose.[G]
[Am]i'll take [G]you back again[F],
when [G]i can afford t[C]o lose.
