Em                Am
"Every time you kiss me, I could cry" she said

"Don't tell me how you miss me
     C
I could die tonight of a broken heart
D               Am
This loneliness will change, and we've been too far apart
Em                   Am
And it's too late now for me to just forget
Bm               C
I never thought I'd need to regret for all I never was
D                  Am
But all this time alone has left me hurt and sad and lost
Em                  Am
Yeah, every time you kiss me I could cry
Bm
Don't tell me how you miss me

I could die tonight of a broken heart

This loneliness has changed me, we have been too far apart"

Bm                 C
Nothing you can do now but pretend again"

"Nothing you can do to change it back" she said
Bm
"Nothing you can do but sing
C
This love is a fragile thing
D
This love is my everything

But nothing you can do to change the end"

Verse 2:
Em               Am
"Every time you leave me is a lie" she said
   Bm                 C
"You make believe you need me, but you try too hard
               D
And it feels so wrong You promise me forever,
    Am
and you say it won't be long
Em                  Am
But it's too late now for me to just forget
  Bm             C
I never thought I'd need to regret for all I never was

Yeah, every time you leave me is a lie

You make believe you need me, but you try too hard
               D
And it feels so wrong You promise me forever,
    Am
and you say it won't be long"
