Verse
G#m A# D#m
He put the coffee in the cup and with milk he filled it up
G#m A#7 D#m
He added sugar and I never knew he liked it like that
G#m A# D#m
He took his coat from the hook and his scarf and his hat
G#m A#7 D#m
And he put down a key and said I won’t be needing that
D#m
(Instrument)
G#m A#7 D#m
And he turned and smiled and said that explained it all
G#m A# D#m
And he walked down the hall and he opened the door
G#m A# B
And said I’ll call, I’ll call
[Chorus]
F# C# G#m D#m
Ahh haa Why do I bring you love
F# C# A#7
When all you give me back is pain
F# C# G#m D#m
Haa ahh Why do we search it out
F# C# A#7
To watch you wash your hands and walk away
[Verse II]
G#m A# D#m
Now there’s a black black black bird in my chest
G#m A# D#m
All the flatter all caged in
D#m
(Instrument)
G#m A# D#m
Wanting to break free with the wolves in my head
G#m A# B
You’re tearing every worse thing, I should have said
[Chorus]
F# C# G#m D#m
Ahhhhhhhh haa Why do I bring you love
F# C# A#7
When all you give me back is pain
F# C# G#m D#m
Haa ahh Why do we search it out
F# C# A#7
To watch you wash your hands and walk away
[Bridge]
G#m A#m
We’re like the strangers we were
F#
When we first met
A#7 D#m
But the pain in strangers had the end
G#m A#m F#
And all that remains is a day without plans
A#7
The loneliness and the forever lost
F# - C# - G#m - D#m
F# - C# - A#7 - A#
[Chorus] x2
F# C# G#m D#m
Ahh haa Why do I bring you love
F# C# A#7
When all you give me back is pain
F# C# G#m D#m
Haa ahh Why do we search it out
F# C# A#7
To watch you wash your hands and walk away
