  C       Em       F                C
Vanessa Simmons,       funny kinda name,
Fmaj7               Cmaj7   D            G     (G/A)(G/B)
      Young, and yet wise,      only a child,
C                    Em      F                      C
    Wakes up in the morning,      frown across her face,
Fmaj7              Cmaj7   D                 G     G7
       I know your name,      but not your place-----!


C                   F        C         Em/B       Am
     Wish I could show you...   how to live your life,
Cdim                         G            G7
     But I'm not sure which one of us is right,
F                                    C     F       C
     God only knows the tears I've cried!

Fmaj7                  Cmaj7   D                G    (G/A)(G/B)
     Have you got life wrong,     is it just a game?
C                   Em       F                   C
    Wake up in the morning,    find a friend at night,
Fmaj7                     Cmaj7   D                   G    G7
      Friends are hard to find,       especially at night-----!


C                   F        C         Em/B       Am
     Wish I could show you...   how to live your life,
Cdim                         G            G7     F
     But I'm not sure which one of us is right,     God only knows,
                                            C     F      C
And he's the one that shows the tears I've cried!
                                         |  /  /  /  / |  /  /  /  / |


Dm7       (Dm7/E)  F               C          Em/B    Am
    And if   I   asked you for the sun, would you not say,
G6                   Fmaj+11       E
    "Light's not the  only  way to be!"
Dm7       (Dm7/E)  F                 C          Em/B     Am
    And if   I   asked you for your love, would you not say,
G6               Fmaj7+11              E
    "Love is not   what  you want from me!"
      C              D     Dsus4 D     Dsus4 D      
And would I not be right, 
    F                           C    F       C  
To sit alone and wonder every night?
