we could either be successful,

Falling upon the lonely tenement
A 
D 
I set my mind to wander
A 
Bm 
Into the windows of my lovers,
F#m 
G 
they never know unless I write
D 
This is no declaration,
E 
G 
I just thought I'd let
you know goodbye
A 
G 
A 
Said the hero in the story,
G 
A 
it is mightier than swords
G 
Bm 
I could kill you, but I could only make
