[intro]
G Bm Em Asus9
Once again, I am alone
G Bm Em Asus9
There's no one to blame for the shape I'm in, this condition that I am
G Bm Em Asus9
The note off the table fell from my hands
G Bm Em Asus9
Like a leaf off a tree, I watched it, I watched it slowly land
G F# Bm7 D/A
There are no starry skies left, not for you and I
Gmaj7(6) Gmaj7(6)/F# Em Asus9
Just the dampness of a cold dark night, and that's all...

G Bm Em Asus9
Memories of wine and roses, photos on an old nightstand
G Bm Em Asus9
The story now is ???????, I thought we'd still be friends
G Bm Em Asus9
Maybe you'll come that day, there'll be a ring on my phone
G Bm Em Asus9
Maybe I'll run the other way, or just pretend I'm not home
G F# Bm7 D/A
There are no starry skies left, not for you and I
Gmaj7(6) Gmaj7(6)/F# Em Asus9
Just the dampness of a cold dark night, and that's all...
