There's a sign on the cafe window
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
It says closed please call again.

If only you'd been wearing that sign on your heart,

I've heard that true love can make you survive
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
When a pushin comes to a shove.

But I may as well have tried to hold back the tide
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
As to try and go and win your love.

So throw me a penny in the wishing well
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
Keep knocking my fist from the wood.

But I may as well have tried to hold back the tide,
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
As to try and go and win your love.
