As recorded by Queensrÿche (From the 1986 Album RAGE FOR ORDER) [Intro] C#m A C#m B A B [Verse 1]
C#m
Wait for me, I'll understand

  A                                 C#m
I just need time to comprehend your changes

                    B            F#     C#m
There's always been these changes in you

C#m                         
I remember there was a time when

A                                  C#m
Fears we had we left behind and we danced

                 B                 A
But it seems the more we learn, we learn
[Chorus]
          C#m A C#m A
That it's over, over

     B              A
It's dangerous this game we play

       C#m                   B
You're killing me with words
[Verse 2]
C#m
Forget, if you can

    A
The way you moved when our hands touched

C#m                         B
You forced me to force you, ah

       F#       C#m
Do you remember

                    A
All the dreams, the nightmare we shared?

                      C#m
The poison of love so pure, it's deceiving

    B                A
And deceit is all we have
[Chorus]
               C#m A C#m  A 
It's got to be over, over

     B              A
It's dangerous this game we play

       C#m
You're killing me with words

   A  C#m B
Over, over

    B              A
Too late to take a chance again

      C#m
It's over
[Guitar Solo] A C#m A C#m F# A C#m B A C#m A [Bridge]
        B              A
Now the wireless in my hand is ringing

    B               A
The distance of our lives keeps spreading

    B                   A
The pounding, I hear my heart, I'm not listening

     B               A
Your voice from far away, it's screaming
[Out-Chorus]
     C#m A C#m A
It's over, over

    B              A                  C#m
Too late to take a chance again, it's over

    A C#m A
Over, over

     B              A
It's dangerous this game we play

       C#m
You're killing me, you're killing me

   A  C#m A
Over, over

           B              A
You're too late to take a chance again

     C#m  B
It's over
