 Intro:
Dmaj7Dmaj7

Verse 1:
     Ebdim7Ebdim7   E minor 7Em7   Dmaj7Dmaj7
Why don’t we stop fooling ourselves?
      Dmaj7Dmaj7  D6D6 E minorEm
The game is over, over, over
  G+G     G minorGm
No good times,
D MajorD D/F#D/F# Bm/B
no bad times
D MajorD    G+G F# minorF#m   B minorBm
There’s no times at all
     E minorEm       E MajorE
Just The New York Times
Riff D MajorD
E minorEm         G+G
Sitting on the windowsill
     Dmaj7Dmaj7
Near the flowers
G minorGm A augmentedA A7A7 Dmaj7Dmaj7


Verse 2:
      F#dim7F#dim7  E minor 7Em7
We might as well be apart
D MajorD     D6D6
It hardly matters
  Dsus4Dsus4     E minorEm D/F#D/F# G+G
We sleep separately
G+G     G minorGm  D MajorD    D/F#D/F#  B minorBm
And drop a smile passing in the hall
      G+G F#m7F#m7  B minorBm
But there’s no laughs left
     E minorEm        E MajorE
’Cause we laughed them all
Riff D MajorD
    D MajorD      E minor 7Em7
And we laughed them all
        G+G
In a very short time

Bridge:
G+G
Time
         F#m7F#m7 Dmaj7Dmaj7
Is tapping on my forehead
E minorEm       Dmaj7Dmaj7
Hanging from my mirror
E minorEm      F#m7F#m7
Rattling the teacups
   E minorEm G minorGm Dmaj7Dmaj7
And I wonder


Verse 3:
    Ebdim7Ebdim7  E minor 7Em7 Dmaj7Dmaj7
How long can I delay?
       D6D6
We’re just a habit
   D MajorD     E minor 7Em7 F#7F#7 G+G
Like saccharin
      C9C9   D MajorD    F# minorF#m  B minorBm
And I’m habitually feelin’ kinda blue
  G+G  F# minorF#m  B minorBm D MajorD   E9E9
But each time I try on the thought of leaving you
 D MajorD
I stop...
            Dmaj7Dmaj7
Stop and think it over
