The Dutchess and the Duke: Hands
[verse]
AmSun Gcomes E7up
IAm'm counting the Gdays I've got E7left
AmI'm counting the Gtime on my E7hands, watch the days roll Gby
AmWhen GI'm E7gone
AmWho will be Gwaiting for E7me to come home?
AmWho waits for a Gghost to come E7in from the cold, just to Ghaunt you?
FSometimes girl I'm aGlready gone, I've been rCeady so longAm  
FIn your heart there's a Gdifferent man, and I Cjust ain't that strongAm  
FI can't win, GI can't lose, and Ceverything I do is wAmrong
FOne hand clawing at the Gother hand, trying to hold E7on
AmSun gGoes dE7own
AmIf I stay too lGong then I'll jE7ust fade away
AmAnd if you were Gsmart you woE7uld just walk away, don't you cGry
AmWhen GI'm gE7one
AmI know for Gcertain the E7birds will still sing
AmAnd I know the Gclouds will still E7cry like a child, on my Gshadow
FSometimes girl I'm aGlready gone, I've been rCeady so longAm  
FIn your heart there's a Gdifferent man, and I Cjust ain't that strongAm  
FI can't win, GI can't lose, and Ceverything I do is wAmrong
FOne hand clawing at the Gother hand, trying to hold E7on.

The Dutchess and the Duke: Hands

[verse]

Am G E7

Sun comes up

Am G E7

I'm counting the days I've got left

Am G E7 G

I'm counting the time on my hands, watch the days roll by

Am G E7

When I'm gone

Am G E7

Who will be waiting for me to come home?

Am G E7 G

Who waits for a ghost to come in from the cold, just to haunt you?

F G C Am

Sometimes girl I'm already gone, I've been ready so long

F G C Am

In your heart there's a different man, and I just ain't that strong

F G C Am

I can't win, I can't lose, and everything I do is wrong

F G E7

One hand clawing at the other hand, trying to hold on

Am G E7

Sun goes down

Am G E7

If I stay too long then I'll just fade away

Am G E7 G

And if you were smart you would just walk away, don't you cry

Am G E7

When I'm gone

Am G E7

I know for certain the birds will still sing

Am G E7 G

And I know the clouds will still cry like a child, on my shadow

F G C Am

Sometimes girl I'm already gone, I've been ready so long

F G C Am

In your heart there's a different man, and I just ain't that strong

F G C Am

I can't win, I can't lose, and everything I do is wrong

F G E7

One hand clawing at the other hand, trying to hold on.
