[tab]                             Asus2
I tell myself before I go to sleep.

G6sus4 G5
Don't say the words you might regret,

                                   Asus2
I lost before, you know I can’t forget.

            A      Em      G
There was a girl I used to know,

Dm           A      Em     G
She dealt my love a savage blow,

Dm       A          Em       G
I was so young, too blind to see,

Dm     Fmaj7      G    Cadd9
But anyway that’s history.

G6sus4 G5
History never repeats,

                             Asus2
I tell myself before I go to sleep.

G6sus4 G5
Don't say the words you might regret,

                                   Asus2
I lost before, you know I can’t forget.

            A      Em      G
You say I always play the fool,

Dm           A      Em     G
I can't go on if that’s the rule,

Dm       A          Em       G
Better to jump than hesitate,

Dm     Fmaj7      G    Cadd9
I need a change and I can’t wait.

G6sus4 G5
History never repeats,

                             Asus2
I tell myself before I go to sleep.

G6sus4 G5
There’s a light shining in the dark,

                                   Asus2
Leading me on towards a change of heart.

History never repeats.
History never repeats.
            A      Em      G
Deep in the night it’s all so clear,

Dm           A      Em     G
I lie awake with great ideas,

Dm       A       Em       G
Lurking about in no-man's land,

Dm     Fmaj7      G    Cadd9
I think at last I understand.

G6sus4 G5
History never repeats,

                             Asus2
I tell myself before I go to sleep.

G6sus4 G5
There’s a light shining in the dark,

                                   Asus2
Leading me on towards a change of heart.
