Verse 1
G             
 On a Tuesday 
D/F#
 in December,
Em                  
 When you walked out
C
 I remember.
G                 
 You were smiling 
D/F#
 as you turned around,
Em                     
 In the hallway, 
       C
you lingered in the doorway.
    D                                                 
And still the words you said to me, make me think of 
C
how we used to be.

Chorus
G                                           
Hand to my heart, 
D/F#
I want to be the 
Em                 
one who always 
C
learned.
                  G
She said, You're just like the sun.
D/F#              
 I get so 
 Em
burned when 
 C
you are close to me.

Verse 2
In the back room of a mansion,
You are planning your deception.
Always calling, never phoning.
I'm a victim of another's war.
And still the words you said to me,
Come ringing in your silent symphony.

Chorus

Bridge
D                        
 And still it hurt so bad, 
C
I thought I'd get one over on you,
D                              
 And still, I hope you're sad, 
C
(you deserve it more than anyone).

G
 I could give you one good reason.
D/F# 
 You could be my winning season.
Em                                        
 All the things we could have been, just 
C
fell away.
