C      F7M         Em7  Dm7
When I opened your letter yesterday
C                      Dm7
I could not believe my eyes

(similar)

'Cos I've already given all I have to give

And I think it must have slipped your mind

But I remember not so long ago

I gave it all, 
     F
it's gone
              G
And I gave it all to you
        Em
Now I'm living on borrowed time, 
Am  G    F#m7(b5)
but it's mine

Oh, d'you hear me?
F7M                 Em7
I cannot believe it's true
Dm7            F7M                Em7
Are you really doing the things you do.
Dm7 F7M                Em7  Dm7    C
No I cannot believe it's you, really you

Oh these people I'm talking to don't understand

They don't seem to realize

They're listening but they're not hearing me

They're being too cruel to be kind

Any kind of feeling that I had is gone

'Cos I gave it all, it's gone

And I gave it all to you

Now I'm living on borrowed time, but it's mine

Oh, d'you hear me?

I cannot believe it's true

Are you really doing the things you do.

No I cannot believe it's you, really you
Bb       C           Dm
Over and over I keep on telling myself

Over and over I hope I'm gonna make up

Over and over I know it's really happening
            Bb          C      G
And there's nothing that I can say
Bb               C
'Cos nothing can change 
               Dm
all the things that you've done to me
Bb          C       G
Nothing can make me stay

Oh, 'cos you know I cannot believe it's true

Are you really doing the things you do

No I cannot believe it's you, really you
Eb                   F/Eb
I know it's a crying shame, 
     Ab              Bb
it's all the same to you

It seems all so well laid out 

but I cannot get through
C                     F
Never meant it to show
           C                               F
It started happening, that's all you know.
Oh, I gave it all to you
Now I'm living on borrowed time, but it's mine
Oh, d'you hear me?
I cannot believe it's true
Are you really doing the things you do
No I cannot believe it's you, really you
Over and over I keep on telling myself
Over and over I Hope I'm gonna make up
But over and over I know it's really happening
And there's nothing that I can say
'Cos nothing can change all the things that you do to me
Nothing can make me stay
'Cos you know I cannot believe it's true
Are you really doing the things you do
No I cannot believe it's you, really you
