Verse 2
I re (D major) member the first time
(B minor) I saw you on the street
(D major) You looked so pretty (B minor) my
heart (G major) skipped a beat
I can't wait any longer
but I still (A major) feel the heat
Verse 3
I'm down (D major) but I'm still on (A major) my feet
(D major) I walked on down the
(B minor) old (G major) fairground
Up from the docks blew a (A major) lonely sound
I sat (D major) for a while on the (B minor) cold
hard ground
Verse 4
Watched the stars (G major) slowly turn
as the (A major) earth spun around
As the (D major) past falls behind up
ahead (B minor) there's a crack
Of (D major) light shining bright through
the (G major) night so black
Like a runaway train rolling
(A major) down the track

From here (D major) there's no turning back (A major)
Listen (D major) to me baby
Once upon a time
My heart (G major) was an ocean

You swam (A major) against the tide
The (D major) time is past for grieving
My tears have all run dry
I'll leave (G major) you with my love
Verse 7
And now (A major) I say goodbye (D major) (G major) (D major) (G major)
(D major) The bottles broke the glasses (B minor)
are cracked
The cards (G major) are all dealt and
the chips (A major) have been stacked
The (D major) lamp shades busted and
the (B minor) curtains are torn
Verse 8
The (G major) door keeps knocking but
there's (A major) nobody home
I stood (D major) by the road brushed
a tear (B minor) from my eye
Cursed the (D major) cars and the rain
and the (G major) rolling grey sky
I turned around turned my
(A major) back on that town
Verse 9
And I (D major) never looked back (A major) (D major) (G major) (A major) again
