[Verse 1]
C#m G# E
Tell me, wasn't I in your dreams

I reached out as I was falling asleep
F#m
Thought that
you
were next to me
G#7 C#m
And opened up my eyes
C#m G#
Baby, you
gotta let me know
E F#m7
What’s the rhyme and reason for this most recent blow
F#m A
I can't take much more of this
G#7 C#m
My heart will flutter back into it's cage
[Chorus]
F#m
You left me on the line (last night)
F#m7 E
Happens all the time (to me)
A/E F#m B7
Thinking that I might

Pack it up and throw it all away

You left me on the line (last night)
F#m7 E
Happens all the time (to me)

Thinking that I might
