[Intro]

F Am G C

F C6

[Verse]

F Am G C

Oh save me

F Am G C

From such a sad, sad song

F Am G C

I’m leaning on a lamppost

F Am G C

Oh I'm melting in the sun

F Am

My toes are dripping through the sewer

G C F Am G C

I can feel my heart beating, as the tears roll down my tongue

F Am

And as the nights are getting cooler

G C

Never thought that you'd be leaving

F Am G

Should've known that I'd be wrong

[Chorus]

F Am G C

Oh goodbye, baby

F Am G

And the music starts to fade

Oh goodbye, baby

F Am C G

I really wish you could've stayed

[Interlude]

F Am G C

F Am G C

Holding roses in my hand

F Am G C

Moonlight reflecting off my tooth

F Am G C

A man will do all that he can,

F Am G C

just to be getting over you

F Am G C

And when the sadness lingers, with his hand on my shoulder

F Am G C

Well you know it's been there before

F Am

And as the wind blows through my fingers

G C F Am G

Feels like I'm getting older every time I turn a door

[Outro]

F Am G C

Oh goodbye, baby

F Am G

and the curtain starts to sway

F Am G C

Oh goodbye, baby

F Am G

I really wish you could've stayed

F C6
