Verse 1
G
I feel the trembling tingle
Am
of a sleepless night
C
D
Creep through my fingers
G
and the moon is bright
Beams of blue come flickering
Am
through my window pane
C
D
Like gypsy moths
G
that dance around a candle flame
Chorus 1
Am
And I wonder if you know
D
G
Em
That I never understood
Am
That although you said you'd go
C
Until you did
D
G
I never thought you would
Am

Verse 2
G
Moonlight used to bathe
Am
the contours of your face
C
D
While chestnut hair
G
fell all around the pillow case
And the fragrance of your flowers
Am
rest beneath my head
C
D
A sympathy bouquet
G
left with the love that's dead
Chorus 2
Am
And I wonder if you know
D
G
Em
That I never understood
Am
That although you said you'd go
C
Until you did

I never thought you would

Never thought the words you said were true

Never thought you said

just what you meant
G
Em
Never knew how much I needed you

Never thought you'd leave,
G
until you went

Verse 3
G
Morning comes and morning goes
Am
with no regret
C
And evening brings
G
the memories I can't forget
Am
Empty rooms that echo as I climb the stairs
C
D
And empty clothes that drape
G
and fall on empty chairs
Chorus 3
Am
And I wonder if you know
D
G
Em
That I never understood
Am
That although you said you'd go
C
Until you did
D

I never thought you would
