Intro: C#75+/G# | C#75+/E

F#                   C#
Games, changes and fears,
               G#m7
When will they go from here,
When will they stop!
               F#
I believe that fate
                 C#
Has brought us here
                   G#m7
And we should be together, babe,
But we’re not.

  B                          Bbm7
   I play it off, but I’m dreaming of you.
  G#m7                           C#
   And I’ll keep my cool but I’m fiending.

Chorus:
                      F#
     I try to say goodbye and I choke,
                    C#
     I try to walk away and I stumble.
                     G#m7
     Though I try to hide it, it’s clear,
              B
     My world crumbles
                      C#7sus4
     When you are not near.

         F#
     Goodbye and I choke,
                    C#
     I try to walk away and I stumble.
                     G#m7
     Though I try to hide it, it’s clear,
              B
     My world crumbles
                      C#7sus4
     When you are not near.

I may appear to be free,
But I’m just a prisoner
Of your love.
And I may seem alright,
And smile when you leave,
But my smiles are just a front,
Just a front. Hey!

   I play it off but I’m dreaming of you.
   And I’ll keep my cool but I’m fiending.

Chorus:
     I try to say goodbye and I choke,
     I try to walk away and I stumble.
     Though I try to hide it, it’s clear,
     My world crumbles
     When you are not near.

     Goodbye and I choke,
     I try to walk away and I stumble.
     Though I try to hide it, it’s clear,
     My world crumbles
     When you are not near.

Bridge:
  Amaj           C#m7
   Here is my confession,
                    Amaj
   May I be your possession?
                    G#m7
   Boy, I need your touch,
                         E9
   Your love, kisses and such.
                       Ebm7
   With all my might I try,
                      G#m7
   But this I can’t deny, deny.

  B                           Bbm7
   I play it off, but I’m dreaming of you,
   But I’m dreaming of you, babe.
  G#m7                           C#
   And I’ll keep my cool but I’m fiending.

Chorus:
       D              G
     I try to say goodbye and I choke,
                    D
     I try to walk away and I stumble.
                     Am7
     Though I try to hide it, it’s clear,
              C
     My world crumbles
                      D7sus4
     When you are not near.

         G
     Goodbye and I choke,
                    D
     I try to walk away and I stumble.
                     Am7
     Though I try to hide it, it’s clear,
              C
     My world crumbles
                      D7sus4
     When you are not near.

         G
     Goodbye and I choke,
                    D
     I try to walk away and I stumble.
                     Am7
     Though I try to hide it, it’s clear,
              C
     My world crumbles
                      D7sus4
     When you are not near.
