 (repeat 4x - on fourth time drop last beat)

            Bm
So there it is
        G
All the truth is on the table
        D          Bm/F# (walking bass)
Nothing to forgive
     F#          Bm        F#7
It's OK to start again

The wedding cake
All but fades into a memory
Thrown in Cupid's face  
            F#7         B    C#sus C#
Love's just frosting anyway

      D#m                     D#m/C#
They both think back to long ago
      G#/C                 G#
When thoughts of them both growing old
     C#m           C#m7/B           F#/A#  F#
Had given them the grey hair they deserved
        B         A         F#m       E
Singing bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
           G       A        B         F#7
Well, I've come to take you home

Another wife
Neglected to the end
Lives her own prison life
Solitaire's not just a game

She called his bluff (She is the meaning in his world)
Even though the tokens
And gold watch were never enough
To tell the time and start again

It seems all of these tragedies
That last and last eternities
Have broken every bank and every bone

Singing bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
Well, I've come to take you home
Singing bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
           G       A        B     Eb7
Well, I've come to take you home

They both think back to long ago
When thoughts of them both growing old
Had given them the grey hair they deserved

Singing bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
Well, I've come to take you home

Singing bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
Well, I've come to take you home
