Dave Matthews Band

Dave Matthews Band - Stay Or Leave (2) guitar tab

Well I was looking for some tabs of this song and couldn't find anything descent

enough to look at for more than 3 seconds. So here's my version of 'Stay or Leave'.

I think you will find it fairly accurate.

Listen to the song for timing, and figure out the chords on your own.

I'm too lazy to do either.

Lyrics:

Maybe different but remember

Winters warm there you and I

Kissing whiskey by the fire

With the snow outside

And the summer comes

The river swims at midnight shiver cold

Touch the bottom you and I

With muddy toes

Stay or leave

I want you not to go but you should

It was good as good goes

Stay or leave I want you not to go but you did

Wake up naked drinking coffee

Making plans to change the world

While the world is changing us

It was good good love

You used to laugh under the covers

Maybe not so often now

The way I used to laugh with you

Was loud and hard

Stay or leave

I want you not to go but you should

It was good as good goes

Stay or leave I want you not to go but you did

So what to do

With the rest of the days afternoon hey

Isn't it strange how we change

Everything we did

Did I do all that I should

That I coulda done

Remember we used to dance

And everyone wanted to be

You and me

I want to be too

What day is this

Besides the day you left me

What day is this

Besides the day you went

So what to do

With the rest of the days afternoon hey

Well isn't it strange how we change

Everything we did

Did I do all that I could

Remember we used to dance

And everyone wanted to be

You and me, I want to be too

What day is this

Besides the day you went away

What day is this?

And now the crap no one reads:
