[Verse 1]
ABmnother night with C#7open eyes
Too F#late to sleep, to Emsoon to rise
You're Bmshort of breath, is it a C#7heart attack?
F#Hot and feverish, you Emface the fact
[Bridge]
You're in Bmlove
And it A6feels like shame
Because she's Emgone and made a fool of you in F#mpublic again
You're in Bmlove
And it A6feels like pain
Because you Emknow there's too much truth in ev'rytF#mhing she Aclaims
[Chorus]
So Gask yourAself now, Bmcan you forD6give her
GIf she Awants you F#mto?A  
GAsk yourAself can you Bmeven deD6liver
GWhat she deAmands of F#myouA  
[Verse 2]
You Bmdrift into the C#7strangest dreams
Of F#youthful follies and Emchanging teams
AdBmmit you're wrong oh, C#7no! Not yet
Then you F#wake up and remember that you Emcan't forget
[Bridge]
She's made Bmyou
Some kind of A6laughing stock
Because you Emdance to disco and you F#mdon't like rock
She made Bmfun
Of you and A6even in bed
Said she was Emgonna go and get herself a F#mreal man insAtead
[Chorus]
So Gask yourAself now, Bmcan you forD6give her
GIf she Abegs you F#mto?A  
GAsk yourAself can you Bmeven delD6iver
GWhat she demAands of F#myou

[Verse 3]
ReBmmember when you were more C#7easily led
Behind the F#cricket pavilion and the Embicycle shed
BmTrembling as your C#7dreams came true
You F#looked right into those blue Emeyes and knew
[Bridge]
It was Bmlove
And now you A6can't pretend
You've forgEmotten all the promises of F#mthat first friendA  
It's bad enBmough
She knows A6how you feel
But she's Emnot prepared to share you with a F#mmemoAry
[Chorus]
So Gask yourAself now, Bmcan you forD6give her
GIf she Abegs you F#mto?A  
GAsk yourAself can you Bmeven deD6liver
GWhat she deAmands of F#myou
[Chorus]
