[Verse 1]
D Dmaj7 If you really knew how many times I've tried to help you D7 G Make your mind up in the matters of the heart, you'd not be bothered Gm D/F# By the miscues or the bad trips that seem to come and plague us E7 A7 D Having thought it over, I sure would like to talk to you again [Interlude] D Dsus4 e|---5---5----5---5-|---5---5---5---5-| B|-7---5----7---5---|-8---5---8---5---| G|------------------|-----------------| D|------------------|-----------------| A|------------------|-----------------| E|------------------|-----------------|
[Verse 2]
D Dmaj7 I was stone cold sober, it was daylight in October D7 G When you reached across the table put your hand upon my shoulder Gm D/F# And my lips were warm with kissing while we found the missing pieces E7 A7 D To all the empty spaces; I sure would like to talk that way again [Interlude] D Dsus4 e|---5---5----5---5-|---5---5---5---5-| B|-7---5----7---5---|-8---5---8---5---| G|------------------|-----------------| x2 D|------------------|-----------------| A|------------------|-----------------| E|------------------|-----------------|
[Verse 3]
D Dmaj7 We have soared above the clouds, we've heard the angels breathing D7 G While we made love in the morning, there was never talk of leaving Gm D/F# We would lie that way for hours with our arms around each other E7 A7 D It was all so easy, I sure would like to talk to you again
[Interlude]
D Dmaj7 Em A7
[Bridge]
D D7 'Cause I'm stone cold sober, the daylight has crossed over Em A7 D In the night, a touch of sadness we had it coming, had it going way back then [Interlude] D Dsus4 e|---5---5----5---5-|---5---5---5---5-| B|-7---5----7---5---|-8---5---8---5---| G|------------------|-----------------| x2 D|------------------|-----------------| A|------------------|-----------------| E|------------------|-----------------|
[Verse 4]
D Dmaj7 I was stone cold sober when I woke the morning after D7 G Having shattered the illusions of the object of my passions Gm D/F# With a will made out of iron and a mind that is her own E7 A7 D Having thought it over, I sure would like to talk to her again
[Interlude]
D Dmaj7 Em

[Verse ]
D Dmaj7 I hope that we can see each other often, that our points of view D7 G Will blend into each other like the sea and the horizon Gm D/F# And the sun will shine upon us as we live our lives forever E7 A7 D Having thought it over, I sure would like to talk to you again [Outro] D Dsus4 e|---5---5----5---5-|---5---5---5---5-| B|-7---5----7---5---|-8---5---8---5---| G|------------------|-----------------| x2 D|------------------|-----------------| A|------------------|-----------------| E|------------------|-----------------|
