Nothing in Return (Erikson)
Verse 1:
      E5
      I call your name in the midnight

      A5               B5
      But you don't hear me at all

      E5
      I love you so dearly and nearly

      A5               B5
      But you don't love me at all

Biss:         A5                   B5
      There's nothin in this big round world that's worse

      E5  E5  C#5  C#5
      Hu--ur---ur---rts

      A5                     B5            E5
      Than payin out 'n receivin nothin in return

Verse 2:
      Every day and night I dial your number
      But you never answer the phone
      Are you really not there when I call you?
      What gives you so much chance to roam?

                  - chorus -

Bridge: A5         B5    E5  E5  C#5  C#5
      If I only knew how to get you
             A5                              B5
      Well I tried all I know and failed except for lovin you so

Verse 3:
      I sought you out and found out your name first
      But my name you never seem to have called
      How in this world can I date you
      When you won't give me a call?

                  - chorus -
                  - bridge -
                  - verse 1 -
                  - chorus -

End:         E5  E5  C#5  C#5
      Oh no---oh---oh

      A5                     B5            E5
      Payin out 'n receivin nothin in return
