GGlazes into the dAark
DWas it the moon or only hAer fear of being lonely
DThat gave her leave of her hAeart
[Chorus]
Em7Wo oh Goh oh RDomeo, RoAmeo,  
Who would lay down her lDife, RoAmeo,
ASwallow the poDison, beck of the nAight
Maybe I Dcry, Maybe I Acry,
AJust a teardrop or Dtwo, tear or Atwo,
AI would not Bmdie for you, 
GI would not dAie for yDou,
[Verse 2]
DJust another romantic depressive,  
GiAving in she becomes obsessive,
DMaybe this time I'll lAearn,

SomAetimes the whole thing catches,
And aDll you can do is watch it bAurn
[Chorus]
