Phil Collins - Against All Odds

Capo: 1st Fret

[Intro]

Dm G x2

[Verse]

Am Bm
How can I just let you walk away
C Dm
Just let you leave without a trace,
F G Em Am
When I stand here taking every breath with you, ooh.
Dm F G
You’re the only one who really knew me at all.
Am Bm
How can you just walk away from me,
C Dm
When all I can do is watch you leave,
F G
Cause we’ve shared the laughter and the pain,
Em Am
And even shared the tears.
Dm F G G7
You’re the only one who really knew me at all.

[Chorus]
C
So take a look at me now
D
Cause there’s just an empty space,
Am F
And there’s nothing left here to remind me,
Dm G
Just the memory of your face.
G7 C
Oh take a look at me now
D
Cause there’s just an empty space,
Am F
And you coming back to me is against the odds,
Dm G G7
And that’s what I’ve got to face.

[Verse]

Am Bm
I wish I could just make you turn around,
C Dm
Turn around and see me cry,
F G
There’s so much I need to say to you,
Em Am
So many reasons why.
Dm F G G7
You’re the only one who really knew me at all.

[Chorus]

C
So take a look at me now
D
Cause there’s just an empty space,
Am F
And there’s nothing left here to remind me,
Dm G
Just the memory of your face.

G7 C
Oh take a look at me now
D
Cause there’s just an empty space,
Am F
But to wait for you, well that’s all I can do,
Dm G
And that’s what I’ve got to face.
G7 C
Take a good look at me now
D
Cause I’ll still be standing here,
Am F
And you coming back to me is against all odds,
Dm G G7
It’s the chance I’ve got to take

[Outro]

Dm G Dm G

G7 Dm G
Take a look at me now.
