C#m
When you refuse me
        A     G#
You confuse me
C#m
What makes you think I'll let you in again?
  A              G#
Think again my friend

Go on, misuse me and abuse me
I'll come out stronger in the end

Chorus:
A            B
And does it make you sad
    Cdim7              C#m
To find yourself alone?
And does it make you mad
To find that I have grown?
I'll bet it hurts so bad
To see the strength that I have shown

         A
When you answer the door, pick up the phone
           G#                            C#m
You won't find me 'cause I'm not coming home

You do not know how much this hurts me
To say these things that I don't want to say
But have to say them anyway
I would do anything to end your suffering
But you would rather walk away

Chorus -x2

When you answer the door, pick up the phone
You won't find me 'cause I'm not coming home
When you answer the door, pick up the phone
You won't find me 'cause I'm not coming home
When you answer the door, pick up the phone
You won't find me 'cause I'm not coming home
