Intro
C# E D#m F#
[Verse 1]
C# E
See the sleep that rests upon
D#m F#
The quiet street we're standing on
C# E
Is it time to go away?
D#m F#
Try again some other day?
[Chorus]
C# E D#m F#
These are the words we use,
C# E D#m F#
to say goodbye
C# E D#m F#
These are the words we use,
C# E D#m F#
to say goodbye
[Verse 2]
C# E
Bones crack, curtains drawn
D#m F#
On my back and the sheet is gone
C# E
Somewhere else I do not know
D#m F#
Time will tell and I will go
[Chorus]
C# E D#m F#
These are the words we use,
C# E D#m F#
to say goodbye
C# E D#m F#
These are the words we use,
C# E D#m F#
to say goodbye
[Bridge]
G# F#
(hammer the high e-string: C with the D, and C# with the C)
G# F#
[Verse 3]
C# E
I will wait, take a turn
D#m F#
Sort it out, let it burn
C# E
Empty out empty drawer
D#m F#
In my pockets there's nothing more
[Outro]
C# E D#m F#
These are the words we use,
C# E D#m F#
to say goodbye
