If You Want Me To Stay

Red Hot Chili Peppers

Am G C  F G E (x2)
                       Am                                  G           C
            If you want me to stay, I'll be around today
                        F                            G     E (Bb)
            To be available for you to see
            I'm about to go, well, then you know
            For me to stay here, I got to be me

            You'll never be in doubt, that's what it's all about
            You can take me for granted and smile
            Cause the day I'm gone forget to get to me by phone
            Cause I promise I'll be gone for awhile

            And when you see me again, I hope that you have been
            The kind of person that you really are now
            We've got to get it straight, how could I ever be late
            When you're my lover taking up my time

            Oh, how could I ever allow, I guess I wonder how
            I could get outta pocket for fun ow, ow
            When you know that you're livin' number two
            Number one is gonna be number one ow, ow, ow, ow

            Oh, I wish I could get
            This message over to you now
            Doo doo doo doo doo, doo, doo doo doo doo doo
            Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo

            Doo doo doo doo doo, doo, doo doo doo doo doo
            Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo
            Doo doo doo doo doo, doo, doo doo doo doo doo
            Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo

            And when you see me again, I hope that you have been
            The kind of person that you really are now
            Oh, be so good
            You know I wish I could get this message over to you now

            Doo doo doo doo doo, doo, doo doo doo doo doo
            Get this message over to you now
            Be so good - I wish I could
            Doo doo doo doo doo, doo, doo doo doo doo doo...
