Verse 1:

      Em          Am
         So many words
      D      /F#                G
         Are buzzing 'round my head
      Em          Am
         So many words
      D             /F#           G
         Are still waiting to be said

      E         A         E            A
      I keep a-tryin' to tell you I'm sorry
      E         A               E         A
      I keep a-tryin'  but my mouth gets numb
      E         A         E            A
      I keep a-tryin' to tell you I'm sorry
      E                         Ab
        It's on the tip of my tongue

Chorus:

      Eb             Ab         C#m
         It's on the tip of my tongue [1, 2, 3: baby]
      Eb             Ab         C#m
         It's on the tip of my [1, 4: tongue]  [2, 3: T- t- t- ah!]
      Eb             Ab          A
         It's on the tip of my tongue
                               C#m    B
      But the words they don't come

Verse 2:

      Each time you see me
      You must be thinking, "here comes a bad scene"
      But if you could just be me
      Then you'd know what I mean

      When I keep trying  to tell you I'm sorry
      When I keep hoping it's not over and done [45: yeah  LP: no!]
      When I keep trying  to tell you I'm sorry
      It's on the tip of my tongue

Bridge:

      C 
         What is it you want me to do
      Am
         Do I have to come out and spell it for you
          Bm           Bb+  Bm7/A        E/G#
      It must hurt you too, going on this way
       A                         B             E
      Wanting to hear words that I just can't say

[repeat chorus 2X; fade at end 2nd time]
