OR (depending on your taste)
B B/G# B B/G#
B G#m
It's not my fault, it wasn't up to you
B G#m
Christmas eve comes once a year and that will never do
E C#m
Your image started fading
B D#m Emaj7/C#
I closed my eyes to see*
E
Tell me do you close your eyes for me?
B G#m
B G#m
Now your door seems half a world away
B G#m
The price of gasoline is more than I can pay
E C#m B D#m Emaj7/C#
Plus I don't have a car I can call my very own
E
I guess I'll spend another night alone
B G#m B G#m
E F# G#m7
If I could say I’m sorry
E F# G#m7
Who would I say it to?
E F# E F# B G#m
Besides apologies mean less than dirt to folks like me and you
B G#m
You know it's true
B A B
Should I say too bad
A B
Or so what?
A G#m
What's appropriate?
G#m E
Should I show it?
G#m E G#m E G#m B
Call you on the phone and let you know it?
N.C.
Back at my house there's nothing on TV
The bathroom mirror casts confusing looks from me to me
E C#m
I watched you from a distance
B D#m Emaj7/C#
For too briefly held you close
E
I guess that's just the way this story goes
B G#m B G#m E F# G#m7
Notes:
I play the Emaj7/C# like this:
e|-3-
B|-5-
G|-4-
D|-5-
A|-0-
E|-x-
This chord is my best guess of what to play here, but if that's too tricky,
a Emaj7 or even an C#m would sound fine too :)
