Intro: Am C G D 
 
Am                    C                    G 
Helplessly hoping her harlequin hovers nearby 
           D 
Awaiting a word 
Am                     C 
Gasping at glimpses of gentle true spirit 
   G                      D 
He runs, wishing he could fly 
        Am          C            G D 
Only to trip at the sound of goodbye 
Am                      C 
Wordlessly watching, he waits by the window 
    G                           D 
And wonders at the empty place inside 
Am                     C 
Heartlessly helping himself to her bad dreams 
   G                          D 
He worries, did he hear a goodbye 
   Am C     G D 
Or even hello 
 

G 
They are one person 
G 
They are two alone 
G 
They are three together 
         F    C         G 
They are four for each other 
 
 
Am                            C 
Stand by the stairway, you'll see something 
             G                         D 
Certain to tell you confusion has its cost 
Am                      C 
Love isn't lying, it's loose in a lady 
     G                      D 
Who lingers, saying she is lost 
     Am   C   G    D 
And choking on hello
