VERSE 1:
G5                  D5    A5               E5
Since you've been gone, I feel my life slipping away.
G5            D5    A5                  E5
I look to the sky, and everything is turning gray.
G5              D5           E5                    F5
All I made was one mistake, how much more will I have to pay.

CHORUS:
C5               G5             C5             D5           D5
W/why can't you think it over.  Why can't you forget about the past?
G5                D5            A5               C5
When love makes a sound babe, a heart needs a second chance.

Don't put me down babe, can't you see I love you.
G5                           D5         
Since you've been gone  I've been in a trance.  
A5                   E5 
This heart needs a second chance.  
A5                     C5                      G5
Don't say it's over, I just can't say goodbye.

So this is love, standing in the pouring rain.
G5              D5    A5                  E5
I've called on you.  'Cause she never meant a thing.
G5                  D5            E5             F5
All I know I ain't got the right to ask you to sympathize.  But ... (to CHORUS)

She was willing and that's all there is to say.
