Introduction: <span>D9 <span>D9/<span>C <span>D9/<span>B <span>A9
<span>D9
The 1st time I saw you
<span>D9/<span>C
I did try hard to burn my eyes
<span>D9/<span>B
Life was but a sad dream
I was but a sad breath
<span>A9
But you were something like sand
When sunlight hits the sea
<span>D9
The 2nd time I saw you
<span>D9/<span>C
I was about to take the road
<span>D9/<span>B
I asked would you wait for me
You said life ain't a highway
<span>A9
Better if we'd been born
As siamese songbirds
<span>D9
The 3rd time I saw you
<span>D9/<span>C
We went to the zoo
<span>D9/<span>B
All steady hot beers, sorrowful monkeys
<span>A9
Big eyes laughing
With I had not held hands
<span>D9
The 4th time I saw you
<span>D9/<span>C
It was like I was gonna die
<span>D9/<span>B
I was waiting outside
You just had a new guy
<span>A9
Asked me why, I, I
<span>D9
Son, son, son
<span>D* <span>D*
won't you come along? ||||||
<span>D9/<span>C ||||||
We have no time for another ||||||
D9 |||1|2
song, song, song ||||3|
<span>D* **ºººº
Won't you sing along?
<span>D9/<span>C
We have no sea, child
<span>D9, <span>D9/<span>C, <span>D9/<span>B, <span>A9)
<span>D9
The 5th time I saw you
<span>D9/<span>C
He was traveling abroad
<span>D9/<span>B
And your eyes, they were not here
You just made new friends
<span>A9
While I tried to stop with cigarrettes
<span>D9
The 6th time I saw you
<span>D9/<span>C
I was properly insane
<span>D9/<span>B
For the whisky I had drunk
The drugs I'd taken
<span>A9
Gimme one way and you will realise
<span>D9
The 7th time I saw you
<span>D9/<span>C
You were married again
<span>D9/<span>B
If I had just once kissed you
Things wouldn't be the same
<span>A9
Surely the sky'd be different
<span>D9
The 8th time I saw you
<span>D9/<span>C
I was strummin' the guitar
<span>D9/<span>B
& your ear were just for him
My ears were a-bleeding
<span>A9
The waiter was blind
Please someone blind my eyes!
<span>D9 <span>D9/<span>C <span>D9/<span>B <span>A9 (with the mouth organ)
<span>D9
The last time I saw you
<span>D9/<span>C
It was about six a.m.
<span>D9/<span>B
You approached me in a strange car
Finally kissed me
<span>A9
Then did wave goodbye
Before you disappear
<span>D9
Sometimes I ache, babe
<span>D9/<span>C
Or I ain't hard enough to stand
<span>D9/<span>B
But the days they just drown me
Coming back from work
<span>A9
Having sour breakfast
<span>D9
