AM7 A7 D C#aug I AM7 waited A7 'til I saw D the C#aug sun
F#m B7 E7sus4 F#m I don't know B7 why I E7sus4 didn't come
AM7 A7 D C#aug AM7 I left you A7 by the D house of C#aug fun
F#m B7 E7sus4 A F#m I don't know B7 why I E7sus4 didn't come A
F#m B7 E7sus4 A F#m I don't know B7 why I E7sus4 didn't come A
AM7 A7 D C#aug AM7 When I A7 saw the D break of C#aug day
F#m B7 E7sus4 I F#m wished that B7 I could E7sus4 fly away
AM7 A7 D C#aug AM7 Instead of A7 kneeling D in the C#aug sand
F#m B7 E7sus4 A F#m Catching B7 teardrops E7sus4 in my A hand
F#m B7 E7 My F#m heart is B7 drenched in E7 wine
F#m B7 E7 But F#m you'll be B7 on my E7 mind
AM7 A7 D C#aug AM7 Out a A7 cross the D endless C#aug sea
F#m B7 E7sus4 F#m I would B7 die in E7sus4 ecstasy
AM7 A7 D C#aug AM7 But I'll A7 be a D bag of C#aug bones
F#m B7 E7sus4 A F#m Driving B7 down the E7sus4 road alone A
F#m B7 E7 My F#m heart is B7 drenched in E7 wine
F#m B7 E7 But F#m you'll be B7 on my E7 mind
AM7 A7 D C#aug AM7 Something A7 has to D make you C#aug run
F#m B7 E7sus4 F#m I don't know B7 why I E7sus4 didn't come
AM7 A7 D C#aug AM7 I feel as A7 empty D as a C#aug drum
F#m B7 E7sus4 A F#m I don't know B7 why I E7sus4 didn't come A
F#m B7 E7sus4 A F#m I don't know B7 why I E7sus4 didn't come A
F#m B7 E7sus4 A F#m I don't know B7 why I E7sus4 didn't come A
