[D] [A#m] [Bm]
[F#m]
[Em] [D] Looking at the door I see the rain fall upon [G] the funeral [Em] mourners
[D] Parading in a wake of sad relations Their [G] shoes [Em] fill up with water
[C#]
Well maybe [F#] I'm too young to [G]
keep good love [D] from going [G] wrong
But [D] tonight you're on my [Em] mind, you'll never know
[G] [D] I'm broken down and hungry for your love with [G] no way [Em] to feed it
Where [D] are you tonight?
Child, you [G] know how [Em] much I need it
[C#]
Too young to [F#] hold on, too [G] old to [D] just break free [G] and run
[F#] [Bm] But sometimes a man [Em] gets carried away [Em] when [Bm] he feels like he should be having [Em] his fun
I'm [Bm] much too blind to see the [Em] damage he's done
[C] Sometimes [C] a man must wait to find that really he [Em] has no one
[Fm] [D] So I wait for you [Gm] and I burn [F#m] Will I ever [G] see your sweet return?
[A]
Oh, [C] you [Bm]
[F#m] should have [Em] come over, cause it's not too [D] late
[A] [D]
[Em] Where are you?
[G] [D]
Lonely is the room the bed is made, the open window lets the rain in
And burrowing in the corner is the only one who [G] dreams they had you with him
My body [F#] turns and yearns [G] for a sleep that [D] won't [G] ever come
[G#m] It's never [D] over, my kingdom for [A] a kiss upon [Em] her shoulder
[G] It's [D] never over, all my riches for her smiles when [A] I slept so [Em] soft against her
[G]
It's never [A] over, the sweetness of her laughter
[G] It's never [D] over, she is the [A] tear that hangs [G] inside my [Em] soul forever
[Em]
[C#] I'm [E] just too young [G] to keep good [D] life from going [G] wrong
[Gm]
[Gm]
[F#m] You [G]
[A]
[C] [Bm] [A]
[A] should have [Em] come [Em] over, [D] but I'm too young, [Gm] [F#m] much too old to break free [G] and run
Too [A] young to see the [C] damage I've done
[Bm]
Sweet lover, [G] [F#m] you should have [Em] come over
[G] How long will I wait for [D] you?
Lover, [Gm] lover,
[F#m] [G]
[A] [C]
[Bm] [A] you should have [Em] come over, cause it's not [A] too late
[D] [Em]
