Am                     C
This is just to say hello

                 F
And to let you know

                         Dm
I think of you from time to time

Am                          C
I know I never really knew you

                    F
But somehow I miss you

                                Dm
And wish that you'd stayed in my life

F                      C
Making contact gets harder

                        F
As the silence grows longer

                 Am
And isn't it only me

F                             C
Who'd like us to see each other?

                            F
How I would hate to be a bother

                              Am
The way we left it was you'd ring
---CHORUS---
C      F          Am
I'm under no illusion

C        F           Am
As to what I meant to you

F                     C
But you made an impression

C         F                    Am
And sometimes I still feel the bruise

C          F                 Am
Sometimes I still feel the bruise
---BRIDGE--- | Am | C | F | Dm| x 1 ---VERSE---
Am                      C
Now and then I stumble on

                               F
What I've misplaced but never lost

                           Dm
An ache I first felt long ago

Am                               C
Though you've appeared and disappeared

                             F
Throughout these past few years

                             Dm
I'd be surprised if you now showed

F                     C
Making contact gets harder

                        F
As the silence grows longer

                           Am
And why would you think of me

F                             C
When you were not the one in love?

                          F
When you were not the dreamer?

                         Am
When you were just the dream?
---CHORUS---
C      F        Am
I'm under no illusion

C      F             Am
As to what I meant to you

F                     C
But you made an impression

C         F                      Am
And sometimes I still feel the bruise

C       F                    Am
Sometimes I still feel the bruise
