Fatal Hesitation                        Words and music by Chris de Burgh


Someone posted these chords on the net... and it appears that every website copied and pasted them 'as was' 
so to speak. Well I for one was most grateful for the effort applied by the original poster. The thing is, 
for a novice, (as am I) the post didn't fully apply the chords to the entire song leaving it kinda difficult 
to sort out. I've spent a little time trying to put it together as best I can... so to anyone who would care 
to take the job a little further, (this song deserves the effort) to address any errors I have made, I for 
one would be so grateful. Stay cool everyone! Chords re-arranger by Bernard Cox

Fatal Hesitation                        Chris de Burgh

Intro: Dm - Bbmaj7 - Fmaj7 - Bb - Dm - Bbmaj7-   Fmaj7 - Csus - C

      Dm            Bb            F               Bb 
The cafes are all deserted, the streets are wet again,
        Dm                        Bb        F                   Csus C
There's nothing quite like an out of season holiday town in the rain,
          Bbmaj7              G7 
When the tourists go and the cold winds blow,
        F      C          Bb    G9 
And my girl is on a plane, home...

      Dm            Bb            F                 Bb 
I'm never going to love another, the way that I have loved you,
        Dm                        Bb        F                   Csus C
It's taken me a little time to discover it,
          Bbmaj7              G7 
Now I know it's true, but fatal hesitation,
        F      C          Bb    G9 
Made me miss the show,


  G  Gm7    Fmaj7/A          Bb - Bb/C
Oh Romeo is standing in the rain,
    F  Gm7                 Fmaj7/A      Bb -  Bb/C 
And I know that I have let her____ slip away,


Dm     C      Bb  F 
Fatal hesitation, ah, fatal hesitation...


      Dm            Bb            F                 Bb 
I saw you again this morning, walking down the beach,
        Dm                        Bb        F                   Csus C
And though you are a thousand miles away,
          Bbmaj7              G7 
You were only just out of reach, but when I got up close,
        F      C          Bb    G9 
And I saw her face, I knew it couldn't be so, no, no;


  G  Gm7    Fmaj7/A          Bb - Bb/C
Oh Romeo is standing in the rain,
    F  Gm7                 Fmaj7/A      Bb -  Bb/C 
And I, yes I know, I have let her slip away,


Dm     C      Bb  F 
Fatal hesitation, fatal hesitation,


Db                 Eb/Db                   F/C
I'm going to get on my____ boat and sail away;


  G  Gm7    Fmaj7/A          Bb - Bb/C
Oh Romeo is standing in the rain,
    F  Gm7                 Fmaj7/A      Bb -  Bb/C 
And I, yes I know, I have let her slip away,

Dm     C      Bb  F 
Fatal hesitation, Fatal hesitation,
Dm     C      Bb  F 
Fatal hesitation, Fatal hesitation...


Dm     C      Bb  F 
I'm going to read a little Shakespeare,
Dm     C      Bb  F 
And get her out of my head, 
Dm     C      Bb  F 
It doesn't matter any more,
Dm     C      Bb  F 
I'm going to miss her just a little bit, 

Dm     C      Bb  F 
Just a little bit...
