Intro x4
So I'm stCanding at your dFoorway
With my stoAmmach all tanGgled and tighCt

                 Am  G(pause) C  
Oh God, where are you tonight?
Cause I don't knFow what I'm doAming here
Or wGhere to begiCn
So tFake a deep breAmath
But darGling don't let me iCnF  Am  G  
A thoCusand times we'Fve said
I'm soAmrry, it's ovGer agaiCn
I can't lFive like this, fAmeel like this
GIn my own skiCn
It all seFems so degAmrading
                       G  C(finger pick)
And the mourning such sin
       F (finger pick) Am (finger pick)
Your face just like a child

through gradually getting louder)
