G  D  F  C  Cm  G  C  Bm  Am7

[verse 1]
G          D            F                 C
And when I see the sign and it points one way
Cm        G               C  Bm  Am7
The lot I used to pass by every day

[chorus]
G              Em
Just walk away Renee
       C                      G        D
No you won't see me following you back home
G             Em            C                 Bm
The empty sidewalks on our block are not the same
C         Bm  Am7  G
But you're not to blame

[interlude]
G  D  F  C  Cm  G  C  Bm  Am7

[verse 2]
G                    D    F              C
Your name and mine inside a heart upon a wall
Cm            G                       C      Bm       Am7
Still finds a way to haunt me baby, though they're so small

[chorus]
G              Em
Just walk away Renee
       C                      G        D
No you won't see me following you back home
G              Em          C             Bm
Now as the rain falls down upon my weary eyes
C  Bm  Am7  G
I start to cry

[solo]
G  D  F  C  Cm  G  C  Bm  Am7

G  Em  C  G  D  G  Em  C  Bm  C  Bm  Am7  G

[verse 3]
G                   D    F            C
From deep inside a tear I'm forced to cry
Cm                   G    C   Bm     Am7
From deep inside the pain I chose to hide

[chorus]
G              Em
Just walk away Renee
       C                      G        D
No you won't see me following you back home
G             Em            C                 Bm
The empty sidewalks on our block are not the same
C         Bm  Am7  G
you are not to blame

[chorus]
G              Em
Just walk away Renee
       C                      G        D
No you won't see me following you back home
G              Em          C             Bm
Now as the rain falls down upon my weary eyes
C  Bm  Am7  G
I start to cry
G              Em
Just walk away Renee
C           G
Please walk away
