[G]
Well, the first [D] time that I saw her
[G] Standing in the middle of the [D] road
[G] Eyes as bright [D] as Christmas lights Wearing someone else's [E]
clothes
I did my best to ignore her [G] But ignoring my best [D] pretty soon
[G] We spent the night all [D] tangled tight [E] In an [G] armchair in my friend's front [D] room
[G] I said, darling, you know [D] Darling, you know I can't stay
So I [F] give her my heart and my [G] word To a girl far away
I felt weak as she kissed [F#m] my cheek I [G] sighed when I heard her say
[Gm]
I [Bm] never knew I [A] could keep my [G] heart broken [A] In [D] less than a day
[G] [D]
[G] [D]
[A] [G]
Oh, and the next time that I saw her Must have been a year or [D] more
[G] Face stained [D] with mascara Shivering outside my [A] door
I did my best to assure her [G] But assurance isn't easy [D] to give
If [G] you've never been sure of [D] anything much [A] The less so, the [D] longer you live
[G] She said, darling, you know [A] Darling, you know I [D] can't stay
So I [F] give her my heart and my [G] word To a boy far [D] away
I spoke soft and pretended to cough Like [G] I didn't care either way
[Gm]

broken [A] In so [D] many ways

[D] The last time that I saw her [G] [E] Standing in the pouring [D] rain
[G]
Hair a little shorter But everything else looked the same
[A] I [D] could have told her that I adored her She [G] could have said she felt the same [D] way
[G]
But we just smile cause [D] sometimes words
[A] Aren't the right [Bm] words to say
