That things don't always work out like they should

But there's no easy way
Ab A#
To tell it like it is so, baby

I know it well, it comes as no surprise
Ab A#
You've been avoidin' me
Cm
But now you want to talk it over
[Verse 4]

Before you take my hand
Cm
And tell me softly in a whisper
Ab F
There's no need to explain
Ab A# D#
I've read the book, I know how this all ends
