N.C.           C              G7    G7      C    C/G  C
Just watch the sunrise on the other side of town

               C               G7          G7     C      C7
Once more I've waited and once more you've let me down

           F            D7/F#           C     G/B* Am
This would be a perfect time  for me to   die

            C                 G   G6   F    C
I'd like to take this opportunity   to cry

[Verse 2]

              C            G7         C   C/G  C
You gave your word now I return it to you

             C             G7   G6      C   C/G  C
with this suggestion as to what you can do

       F                  D7/F#            C  G/B  Am
Just exchange the words I love you for goodbye

while I take this opportunity   to cry

I'd like to see you but I'm afraid

  C          C7    C    C7    C
I don't know wrong from right

         F               D7/F#
And if I saw you would I kiss you

           C*                  G*
or want to kill you on of sight

[Verse 3]

            C               G             C   C/G  C
It's been a long night so I think I'll go home

            C                       G       G6        C    C7
And feed my nightmares they've been waiting all night long

               F            D7/F#       C  G/B  Am
They'll be the last ones to tell me goodbye

                    C         G7          F   F7  C/G*
And they'll give me many opportunities to cry
