[A]
Something told me [Bm] it was over when [C#m]
[Bm] I saw you [A] and her talking.
Something deep down in [Bm] my soul said cry girl, cry, cry, when I saw you and that [A] girl walking
down.
I would rather, I would rather go [Bm] blind boy, than to see you walk away from [A] me child, no.
So you see I love you so [Bm] much, that I don't want to watch you leave me baby.
Most of all I just don't, I [A] just don't want to be free, no.
I was just, I was [Bm] just, I was just sitting there thinking of your kiss and your [A] warm
embrace and care.
When the reflection [F#m] in the glass [Bm] that I held to my lips now babe, revealed the tears [A] that
was on my face yeah.
And baby, [Bm] I'd rather be blind boy, than to see you walk away, see you [A] walk away from me yeah.
[Bm] [B] [D]
