---------------------------
[For chord fingerings, see the tablature at the end of the file.]

G  F#  Bm7  D/A    Gmaj7(6)  Gmaj7(6)/F#  Em  Asus9
[intro]

G         Bm         Em   Asus9
  Once again, I am alone
G                     Bm                       Em                Asus9
  There's no one to blame for the shape I'm in, this condition that I am
G                   Bm                     Em   Asus9
  The note off the table fell from my hands
G                     Bm               Em              Asus9
  Like a leaf off a tree, I watched it, I watched it slowly land

G              F#                Bm7     D/A
  There are no starry skies left,  not for you and I
Gmaj7(6)     Gmaj7(6)/F#   Em           Asus9
  Just the dampness of a cold dark night, and that's all...
  G                F#               Bm7              D/A
right [instrumental]
Gmaj7(6)     Gmaj7(6)/F#   Em           Asus9
[instrumental]

G             Bm             Em             Asus9
  Memories of wine and roses, photos on an old nightstand
G            Bm            Em                Asus9
  The story now is ???????, I thought we'd still be friends
G               Bm           Em              Asus9
  Maybe you'll come that day, there'll be a ring on my phone
G             Bm               Em               Asus9
  Maybe I'll run the other way, or just pretend I'm not home

G              F#                Bm7     D/A
  There are no starry skies left,  not for you and I
Gmaj7(6)    Gmaj7(6)/F#    Em            Asus9
  Just the dampness of a cold dark night, and that's all...
  G                F#               Bm7              D/A
right [instrumental]
            Gmaj7(6)   Gmaj7(6)/F#   Em   Asus9.
That's all right [instrumental]
