Intro:
G minorGm Bb majorBb x4
Verse:
G minorGm Bb majorBb
Comes to that part of the evening
G minorGm Bb majorBb
When there's nobody left to impress
G minorGm Bb majorBb
You sit by yourself in the corner
G minorGm Bb majorBb
Pat your pockets to see just what's left
G minorGm Bb majorBb
All of the lovers have moved on
G minorGm Bb majorBb
But yours is the steepest of hills
G minorGm Bb majorBb
And you glare at yourself in the mirror
G minorGm Bb majorBb
They all know things that you never will
G minorGm Bb majorBb
They'll feel the things you can't access
G minorGm Bb majorBb
As they stand by the river at dawn
G minorGm Bb majorBb
You've grown older and cagey and classless
G minorGm Bb majorBb
And regret just what little you've done
Bridge:
G minorGm Bb majorBb x4
Verse:
G minorGm Bb majorBb
Here is the thing you should cling to
G minorGm Bb majorBb
For a grin as you gather your strength
G minorGm Bb majorBb
And you drag yourself out of the corner
G minorGm Bb majorBb
This is the picture you paint
G minorGm Bb majorBb
You were good, you were strong, you were handsome
G minorGm Bb majorBb
Yes we all say to God what a gift
G minorGm Bb majorBb G minorGm Bb majorBb
And we share in the gloom when you slip from the room with that smile we've so sorely missed
G minorGm Bb majorBb
You'll remember that night in the orchard
G minorGm Bb majorBb
Barefoot with breath in your lungs
G minorGm Bb majorBb
And you said all these trees came from such tiny seeds
G minorGm Bb majorBb
And you held out your arms as you spun
G minorGm Bb majorBb
Like a dervish, a dancer, a dreamer my friend
G minorGm Bb majorBb
You're as beautiful now as I thought you were then
G minorGm Bb majorBb
And I want you to know that I love you
G minorGm Bb majorBb
I want you to know that I love you
G minorGm Bb majorBb
I want you to know that I love you
G minorGm Bb majorBb
Don't make me say it again
G minorGm Bb majorBb
No don't make me say it again
G minorGm Bb majorBb
I love you
G minorGm Bb majorBb
I love you
G minorGm Bb majorBb
I love you
G minorGm Bb majorBb
Don't make me say it again
