Verse 1:
             Em                
I've been waiting for you to come    
        Am                  Em
Staring out at the setting sun
              Em                  
You've been running 'round again
         Am                  Em
With that boy you call your friend


           C          Em            
And it's driving me insane
         C                Em       
Does he make you say his name?
                                 
And you can't get off your tongue
      Am                      Em     
Little girl, you are not so young

Verse 2:
        Em                         
Does it hurt when you lie to me
         Am                     Em   
I you'd asked, I would set you free
         Em                        
But the time to forgive is gone
              Am                   Em
The day has passed, the night has come


             C              Em    
Ain't you worried what I'll do?
          C                Em    
And that boy should worry, too
                                 
Can you face me for what you've done?
        Am                 Em      
Little girl, you're not so young


Chorus 1:
 C                 Em             
Oh, is he ready to die for you, baby?
 C                 Em            
Naw, but you know I was
 C                               
I'm fond of living
    Em                     C       
But I would have given it all
                Em               
for the girl I love


Chorus 2:
 C                  Em            
Oh, is he ready to die for you, baby?
 C                    Em            
Now that the deed is done
 C                    Em          
I'm just waiting for night
                C                  Em
And the fading light of the setting sun


Verse 3:
         Em                       
Tell me when did I lose your love?
       Am                    Em  
Was it him you were thinking of
          Em                      
All those nights when you made me swoon
        Am               Em        
Making love beneath the moon?


          C               Em   
Were you dreaming of his touch?
          C            Em     
When you couldn't get enough
           Em                    
Was there truth in the songs you sung?
        Am                  Em     
Little girl, you're not so young


Verse 4:
C              D     Em           
Well, I could never betray your love
              G       C          
You had me, heart and soul
            D        Em          
You might never have known it, girl
             G    C          
But I was a all yours
              D    Em            
I know I'll never reclaim your love
                 G     C        
But that's just how it goes
               D     Dm           
I ain't the person I was this morning
          G   C                  
when the sun rose


Verse 5:
                D    Em          
Well, I could never betray your love
              G        C        
You had me, heart and soul
            D         Em           
You might never have known it, girl
           G   C              
But I was all yours
             D     Em           
I know I'll never reclaim your love
                 G      C         
But that's just how it goes
             D       Em         
I ain't the person I was this morning
          G   C            
when the sun rose


Outro:
             D      Em          
I know I'll never replace your love
               G          C     
and that's as hard as it gets
             D       Em           
So I'll be taking a life this evening
          G  D  Em               
when the sun sets
