[D] [A]
Oh, the games people play now Every night, every day now
Never [D] meaning what they say [A] now Never [Dm] saying what they mean
While they wallow with the hours In [A] their ivory towers
Till [D] they're covered up with [A] flowers In the back of [D] a black limousine
Oh, we make one another cry Break [A] our hearts when we say goodbye
Cross [G] our hearts and we hope to [A] die Said [D] the other was to blame
Neither one will ever feel So [A] we gaze at an 8 for 10
Thinking [G] about things that might have [A] been It's [B] a dirty writing shame
