VERSE 1:
G Em7
Friends will tell me that I look so sad,
C D
They don't need to ask me why,
G Em7
They know the reason that I feel so bad,
C D
Since the night you said 'Goodbye'.
MIDDLE 8:
Am7
It's not the letters, that you just don't write,
Em7-9
It's not the arms of some new friend,
Am7
It's not the crying, in the dead of night,
Em7-9 D
That keeps me hanging on, just waiting for the end.
CHORUS
VERSE 2:
I watch the street, I watch the radio,
I don't need to turn it on,
Another friends comes by to say 'Hello',
Another weekend's almost gone.
MIDDLE 8
CHORUS
VERSE 3:
Time is flying fast, and I don't care,
To spend another night alone,
I want to see you, but I don't know where,
'Til then I'm walking on my own.
MIDDLE 8
CHORUS
CODA:

Sweet mystery, sweet sweet mystery,
Em7-9
Sweet mystery, sweet mystery, sweet mystery,

Sweet mystery, sweet mystery,
Em7-9
It's your sweet little mystery...
