Am
[tab]    C                    G
Her harlequin hovers nearby.

G          D     Am
Awaiting a word, gasping at glimpses

   C                      G
of gentle true spirit, he runs,

G                D
wishing he could fly,

        Am7               C      G   D
only to trip at the sound of goodbye.

Am
Wordlessly watching,

   C                          G
he waits by the window and wonders,

                   D
at the empty place inside.

Am                     C
Heartlessly helping himself to her

               G
bad dreams, he worries..

                   D       Am7  C    G
Did he hear a good-bye, or even hel..lo?

G
They are one person, they are two alone.

                                   F        C
They are three together, they are for each other.

Am                            C
Stand by the stairway, you'll see something

                G                      D
certain to tell you, confusion has its cost.

Am                     C                      G
Love isn't lying..it's loose in a lady who lingers

             D       Am7            C    G
saying.. she is lost and choking on hel..lo.

G
They are one person, they are two alone.

                                   F    C          G
They are three together, they are for each other.
