 A                                       Bm
Remember when our so-called friend would not call out to you 
               F#m                                     D D9
while tumbling loosely out a hole punched through your home? 
     A                                        Bm
It?s pretty clear, though you could hear, you truly finally knew,
              F#m                                D D9
in time, he?d tell his tale the way he?d like it told.

       F#m          Bm
Now he isn?t on the phone, 
        Bm                     D
and his story might as well be so.

       A                            Bm
Well, loving is as loving does, and I?d say we should know,
                     F#m                       D D9
because we both have loved, have lost, and are alone. 
     A                                  Bm
Your face?s falling tears, to me they?re lovely and they?re dear,
           F#m                                     D             D9
though you don?t love me and it?s clear that I will never see you in my arms.

       F#m             Bm
There?s no room in your heart
     Bm                        D D9
for even this finely-sharpened dart; 

    A      F#m      Bm                         D              A        
although I had started to think there might be hope, it isn?t so.

Bridge: A Bm F#m D D9

   F#m             Bm               D                A
So wake up, make up some new song again around the same tune. 

           A                                       Bm 
The water cools, the leaves they fall, the sun it bends, the summer ends;
            D                A
our so-called friend doesn?t need you.

                  A                                  Bm
So proceed out the door and down the street. December?s lying near,
           F#m                            D D9
but in the oven?s heat this house is now a home.
A                                  Bm
Sixty days of trips and stays you took to tell me, dear, 
            F#m                           D D9
that you cannot love me because you secretly still love a stone. 

           F#m                 Bm              
Although I put my lips to your face, 
              Bm                       D
trying to push his kiss out of its place, 

   A         F#m      Bm                      D                   A
although my heart started to race, now it has slowed, I?ll let it go.


End: A Bm F#m D (X2) A
