Verse 1:
G+G   A minorAm  FF       E minorEm
Long night, too long and lonely
FF      G+G
Laying there asking myself
A minorAm                G+G
Hey, what's going on with you and me
A minorAm      G+G    A minorAm
 How could I be so unaware
   G+G        A minorAm
So blind I could not see
G+G         A minorAm
Knowing you'd be there
G+G         FF G+G
And always would be
        FF    C majorC FF
Is anyone to blame but me
        G+G         FF
I've been so concerned with myself
        C majorC
Now I need you desperately
A minorAm      G+G     A minorAm
 If you've fallen for another
     G+G        A minorAm
Let's be honest with each other
      G+G
Is there still a chance
   C majorC         G+G
And maybe hope to save our romance

 I won't let this be a love in vain
A minorAm        C majorC  G+G
 Don't want the loneliness
A minorAm     C majorC  G+G
 Of just a memory
A minorAm        C majorC   G+G
 I don't want a love in vain

 Just one more night, I want to spend with you

 We'll let our hearts do the talking
       G+G
Like we used to do
A minorAm        G+G         A minorAm
 We'll make our first kiss last forever
     G+G       A minorAm
Put the pieces back together
         G+G
Because there's still a chance

There may be hope to save our romance
