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|
