[Verse]
B E B
I think we better talk this o-ver
B E B
Maybe when we both get sober
E B E B
You’ll understand I’m only a man
E B
Doin’ the best that I can
[Verse]
B E B
This situation can only get rougher
B E B
Why should we needlessly suffer?
E B E B
Let’s call it a day, go our own different ways
E B
Before we decay
[Bridge]
F# B E B
You don’t have to be afraid of looking into my face
F# B E F#
We’ve done nothing to each other time will not erase
[Interlude]

Oooh ...
[Verse]
B E B
I feel displaced, I got a low-down feeling
B E B
You been two-faced, you been double-dealing
E B E B
I took a chance, got caught in the trance
E B
Of a downhill dance
[Verse]
B E B
Oh, child, why you wanna hurt me?
B E B
I’m exiled, you can’t convert me
E B E B
I’m lost in the haze of your delicate ways
E B
With both eyes glazed
[Bridge]
F# B E B
You don’t have to yearn for love, you don’t have to be alone
F# B E B
Somewheres in this universe there’s a place that you can call home
[Interlude]

Oooh ...
[Verse]
B E B
I guess I’ll be leaving tomorrow
B E B
If I have to beg, steal or borrow
E B E B
It’d be great to cross paths in a day and a half
E B
Look at each other and laugh
[Verse]
B E B
But I don’t think it’s liable to happen
B E B
Like the sound of one hand clappin’
E B E B
The vows that we kept are now broken and swept
E B
’Neath the bed where we slept
[Bridge]
F# B E B
Don’t think of me and fantasize on what we never had
F# B E B
Be grateful for what we’ve shared together and be glad
[Interlude]
| B | % | % | % |
Oooh ...
| B | % | % | % |
[Bridge]
F# B E B
Why should we go on watching each other through a telescope?
F# B E F#
Eventually we’ll hang ourselves on all this tangled rope
[Verse]
B E B
Oh, babe, time for a new transition
B E B
I wish I was a magician
E B E B
I would wave a wand and tie back the bond
E B
That we’ve both gone beyond
[Outro]
