Intro x4
C5 F5
So I'm standing at your doorway
A5 G5 C5
With my stomach all tangled and tight
F5
Have it your way
A5 G(pause) C5
Oh God, where are you tonight?
F5 A5
Cause I don't know what I'm doing here
G5 C5
Or where to begin
F5 A5
So take a deep breath
G5 C5 F5 A5 G5
But darling don't let me in
C5 F5
A thousand times we've said
A5 G5 C5
I'm sorry, it's over again
F5 A5
I can't live like this, feel like this
G5 C5
In my own skin
F5 A5
It all seems so degrading
G5 C(finger pick)
And the mourning such sin
F (finger pick) Am (finger pick)
Your face just like a child
G(pause) C5 F5 A5 G5
C5 F5 A5 G5
Darling don't let me in
C5 F5
And we laugh just like children
A5 G5 C5
In waiting in sheets on your bed
F5 A5
Why we secretly pray
G5 C5
Like we're mourning the dead
F5 A5
And you tell me you're so weary
G5 C5
I know, I'm weary too
F5 A5
Hold back a tear
G(pause) C5 F5 A5 G5
Oh darling, what are we to do?
Instrumental: Violin solo (I think it sounds fine if you play the intro 4 or 5 times
through gradually getting louder)
C5 F5
And the wine and the rain
A5 G5
And the feel of your skin
C5
Against mine
F5 A5 G5
I'm swimming, I'm flying, I'm dying
C5 F5
This face and this fear
A5 G5 C5
This stay with me, please stay with me my dear
F5
This hand
A5
This glove
G(pause) C5 F5 A5 G5
C5 F5
This only thing I love
A5
This losing
G5
This losing
C5
This losing
F5
This losing
A5
This losing
G5 C5
This losing in love
