Intro: A5 G5 A5

D5            A5          G5 
In the hope I'll forget I'll wait 
        D5           A5       G5 
It's a chance I'll take oh yeah 
         D5         A5        G5    
In the hope I'll forget I'll wait 
          D5    A5   G5 
For the time 


D5              A5         G5  
In the spring I'll watch my step
        D5           A5       G5 
While the night-time passes by
         D5            A5    G5   
When a smile suits me all alone
      D5    A5   G5 
I'll be fine


                      A5         
There's got to be a better song to sing 
          G5               
Before I hang upon your shoulder 
              G5                           A5 
Telling the truth it may be bolder this time 
                     D5              A5 
There's got to be a better song to sing 
               G5               
That makes a lonely one less cold oh 
          G5                 D5         A5 
Before I hang upon your shoulder and cry 


         D5              A5        G5  
Watching friends playing in the dirt
        D5           A5     G5 
Feeling hard but feeling hurt
         D5            A5    G5   
By the sadness that wastes my time
       D5    A5   G5 
It's a crime


         D5         A5    G5  
Counting acts which I must add
        D5        A5     G5 
To collect sad memories
         D5       A5    G5   
From a past I'd soon forget
     D5      A5   G5 
Swap or leave


                      A5         
There's got to be a better song to sing 
          G5               
Before I hang upon your shoulder 
              G5                           A5 
Telling the truth it may be bolder this time 
                     D5              A5 
There's got to be a better song to sing 
               G5               
That makes a lonely one less cold oh 
          G5                 D5         A5 
Before I hang upon your shoulder and cry 


         D5         A5    G5  
At the gate I'll wave goodbye
        D5            A5       G5 
To the friends that were my lies
         D5         A5    G5
And I'll see them off at dawn
       

D5      A5   G5
