B5                 A5
The candle has all burned down to the stub
B5           A5         
Illuminating corners of our love
B5             A5
I get up put a record on to turn
B5                  A5
And wonder when the reckoning will come

B5              D5
and all my best intentions
D5        A5       E5
can they ever be enough
B5               D5
and how can I be what you want
D5        A5           E5
when you always want too much

B5                       D5
I look out of the window to the street
B5                   D5                 A5
And think of all the places we used to meet
B5           D5               A5
A gallery of pictures on the wall
B5                D5                A5
Reminds me of the times you used to call

B5              D5          A5                E5    
and all my best intentions can they ever be enough
B5               D5        
and how can I be what you want
D5        A5           E5
when you always want too much

B5
you gave me inspiration 
D5     A5            E5
but I never had enough
B5                        D5             A5      E5  
and how can I be what you want when you always want too much

F#5
she calls me up
A5                 D5
she wants me back again
F#5              A5                   D5
and I don't know if I can go through that again
B5 or E5
it's not the same


B5              D5          A5                E5    
and all my best intentions can they ever be enough
B5               D5        
and how can I be what you want
D5        A5           E5
when you always want too much
