G
I know you're not mine, only borrowed
           Am                                  Em
'Cause you already belong to her, at least you said so
    G
But I'm starting to believe it ain't the whole truth
         Am                            Em
As we're lying side by side, I get the whole you

[Chorus]
        D
I wanna hold out, but gotta hold on, even though I know it's wrong
       G                              Em
'Cause I don't want to give you back, I don't want to give you back
D                                   C
You're the best I'll never have, so I don't want to give you back
           G
But you're borrowed

       G
Do you tell her that you love her, like you do me?
       Am                                      Em
Do you make love to her, the way you make love to me?
      G
Well, I keep myself alone in case you call tonight
         Am                                       Em
It's pa- thetic how I lie around and wait all the damn time

[Chorus]
       D
It's a short hide and long low, every time you have to go
       G                              Em
'Cause I don't want to give you back, I don't want to give you back
D                                   C
You're the best I'll never have, so I don't want to give you back
           G
But you're borrowed

Am                                   G               D
How much time is left, you don't re- turn, don't re- turn?
         Am                                G            D              Am
How much time, oh, it's left you don't re- turn, no re- turn, how much time?
