C           C7                    F
I loved the girl but I messed her up.

Gb  G           F              C
Now she's with another so I've found.

F                        G                    C                 C7
They say "better to have loved and lost, than not have loved at all".

F                     G             Em
But much more than my foolish pride, has took a fall.

F               G Am       Bb                F
They all tell me about, mistakes that I have made.

F           G Am        Bb           F
And I have no doubt, my hand was overplayed.
[Chorus]
D                A                Bb               A
There's a shadow on my house, the window's shed no light.

D                    A                 Bb                   A
Since you've gone it seems so wrong, I can't tell day from night.

C       C7          F
All too late I have learnt.

Gb       G              F                   C
Burn the candle at both ends and you'll get burnt.
[Bridge]
Fm                    Ab
How could there be, a fool such as I?

Gm                    Bb
To let you walk away, out of my life.

Fm                         Ab
Sitting here alone all the days seem the same.

Gm                           Bb              C    Db
I don't know how much longer I can stand the pain.
[Chorus]
D                A                Bb               A
There's a shadow on my house, the window's shed no light.

D                    A                 Bb                  A
Since you've gone it seems so wrong, I can't tell day from night.
