D 
G 
Late af
D 
ternoon light
G 
through the living room curtain
D 
Brings a vanishing feeling,
G 
what we got ain't such
D 
Not like it was when we
G 
didn't know better
D 
Like when we put our hearts
G 
D 
G 
D 
G 
in a ten page letter
D 
G 
We share the time, we share the bills
D 
Like we share the silence
G 
that nearly kills
D 
Between all of this and a
G 
change of heart
D 
There must be a point of view
G 
D 
G 
D 
that don't fall apart
G 
A 
G 
Oh, love comes by so slow
F#m 
A 
And the world goes by    so fast
How do you make a good thing
D

last?

D 
G 
D 
You could be the one
G 
and I could be the other
D 
We live together
G 
but don't know one another
D 
G 
I don't know when it got like this,
D 
G 
I guess it's not gone till it's
D 
G 
D 
G 
missed
D 
G 
D 
G 
D 
Promises are made and
G 
promises are broken,
D 
G 
and all the best words remain unspoken
D 
If all my lucky stars formed
G 
a  constellation,
D 
compared with you they're
G 
D 
G 
D 
just a cancellation
G 
A 
G 
Oh, love comes by so slow,
F#m 
A 
and the world goes by    so fast
How do you make a good
D 
G 
D 
thing last?
