     FF         Dm7Dm7
Now the day is gone and I sit alone and think of you girl

      Am7Am7     Bb majorBb     FF
What can I do without you in my life.

DmDm     C#C#+         F/CF/C         G7G7
I guess that our guessing game just had to end that way

   Bb majorBb      Dm7Dm7    Gm7Gm7     C7C7
    Bb majorBb C majorC
The hardest one to lose of all the games we played

     FF          Dm7Dm7
But the time has passed for living in a dream world

   Am7Am7       Bb majorBb        FF
And lying to myself, can't make that scene

  DmDm        C#C#+     F/CF/C          G7G7
Of wond'ring if you love me, or just making a fool of me

     Bb majorBb     Dm7Dm7    Gm7Gm7       C7C7
   FF
Well I hope you understand, I just had to go back to the island,

FF           Bb majorBb           FF
And watch the sun go down, hear the sea roll in

             C7C7             FF
But I'll be thinking of you and how it might have been

          Bb majorBb            FF
Hear the nightbird cry and watch the sunset down

     C7C7                        FF
Well I hope you understand I just had to go back to the island.

DmDm       F/CF/C    Bb majorBb         FF
For all the sunny skies it's rainin' in my heart

DmDm         Bb majorBb            FF
I know down in my soul I'm really gonna miss you

    DmDm       F/CF/C Bb majorBb          FF
But it had to end this way with all the games we played

     Bb majorBb      F/CF/C     Bb majorBb    C7C7
   FF
Well I hope you understand I just had to go back to the island

FF           Bb majorBb           FF
And watch the sun go down, hear the sea roll in

             C7C7             FF
But I'll be thinking of you and how it might have been

 FF         Bb majorBb            FF
Hear the nightbird cry and watch the sunset down

     C7C7                        FF
Well I hope you understand I just had to go back to the island

FF           Bb majorBb           FF
And watch the sun go down, hear the sea roll in.

      Dm7Dm7    C#C#+
