Verse 1

E           C#m                G#m
 Just when I had you off my head
     G                     D                C#m        A
Your voice comes thrashing wildly through my quiet bed
E           C#m            G#m 
 You say you wanna try again
    D                         A      E 
But I've tried everything but giving in


Pre-Chorus

F#m B 
    Why you wanna break my heart again
F#m B
    Why am I gonna let you try


Chorus

     E            C#m           F#m 
When all we ever do is say goodbye
   B            A              E
Oh all we ever do is say goodbye
E                     C#m
All we ever do is say goodbye
   B            A              E
Oh all we ever do is say goodbye


Verse 2

E           C#m            G#m              
 I bought a ticket on a plane
    G              D              C#m         A
And by the time it landed you had gone again
E             C#m                G#m
 I love you more than songs can say
    D                          A       E
But I can't keep running after yesterday


Pre-Chorus
