Intro: D Csus2 Em
D
Looking out the door
Csus2 Em
I see the rain fall upon the funeral mourners
D
Parading in a wake of sad relations
Csus2 Em
As their shoes fill up with water
C#m7dim5 F#aug F#aug/E
And maybe I'm too young
Bm (Dsus4 D) D/A G6
To keep good love from going wrong
D Csus2 Em
But tonight, you're on my mind so
You'll never know
D
I'm broken down and angry for your love
Csus2 Em
With no way to feed it
D
Where are you tonight?
Csus2 Em
Child you know how much I need it.
C#m7dim5 F#aug F#aug/E
Too young to hold on
Bm (Dsus4 D) D/A G6 F#
And too hold to just break free and run
CHORUS:
Bm Em7*
Sometimes a man gets carried away,
Bm Em7*
When he feels like he should be having his fun
Bm Em7*
And much too blind to see the damage he's done
C9
Sometimes a man must awake to find that, really,
Em Fdim
He has no-one...
D/F# Gm6
So I'll wait for you...And I'll burn
A6 G6
Oh will I ever see your sweet return?
Aadd9/C#
Oh, will I ever learn?
Cmaj7/E D6 Aadd9/C# Aadd9/B Aadd9 Aadd9/F# Em Emadd9 Em7
Oh, oh, oh, lover, you should've come over
D Csus2 Em
'Cause it's not too late.
D
Lonely is the room, the bed is made
Csus2 Em
The open window lets the rain in

D
Burning in the corner is the only one
Csus2 Em
who dreams he had you with him
C#m7dim5 F#aug F#aug/E Bm (Dsus4 D)
My body turns and yearns for a sleep
D/A G6
That won't ever come
G#dim D/A
It's never over,
D Csus2 Em [Emadd9 Em7 Em]
My kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder
D/A
It's never over, all my riches for her smiles
D Csus2 Em [Emadd9 Em7]
When I slept so soft against her...
Em D/A
It's never over,
D Csus2 Em [Emadd9 Em7]
All my blood for the sweetness of her laughter
Em D/A
It's never over, she's the tear
D Csus2 Em [Emadd9 Em7]
That hangs inside my soul forever
C#m7dim5 F#aug F#aug/E
Maybe I'm just too young
Bm (Dsus4 D) D/A G Em/G
To keep good love from going wrong
(SOLO)
D/F# Gm6 A6 G6 Aadd9/C#
Cmaj7/E D6 Aadd9/C# Aadd9/B Aadd9 Aadd9?F# Em [Emadd9 Em7]
Oh.......Oh..Oh........Lover you should've come over...
D/F# Gm6
(I feel too young to hold on <====(unofficially added by CaRol)
A6 G6
I'm much too hold to break free and run
Aadd9/C#
Too deef, dumb and blind
Cmaj7/E D6
To see the damage I've done
Aadd9/C# Aadd9/B Aadd9 Aadd9/F# Em [Emadd9 Em7 Em]
Sweeeeet looover, you should've come over
Oh, love I'm waiting for you
Lover, you should've come over
D Csus2 Emadd9
Cause it's not too late.)
