Intro: B75+ | B75+

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

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

Chorus:
                      E
     I try to say goodbye and I choke,
                    B
     I try to walk away and I stumble.
                     F#m7
     Though I try to hide it, it’s clear,
              A
     My world crumbles
                      B7sus4
     When you are not near.

         E
     Goodbye and I choke,
                    B
     I try to walk away and I stumble.
                     F#m7
     Though I try to hide it, it’s clear,
              A
     My world crumbles
                      B7sus4
     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:
  Gmaj           Bm7
   Here is my confession,
                    Gmaj
   May I be your possession?
                    F#m7
   Boy, I need your touch,
                         D7
   Your love, kisses and such.
                       C#m7
   With all my might I try,
                      F#m7
   But this I can’t deny, deny.

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

Chorus:
       C              F
     I try to say goodbye and I choke,
                    C
     I try to walk away and I stumble.
                     Gm7
     Though I try to hide it, it’s clear,
              Bb
     My world crumbles
                      C7sus4
     When you are not near.

         F
     Goodbye and I choke,
                    C
     I try to walk away and I stumble.
                     Gm7
     Though I try to hide it, it’s clear,
              Bb
     My world crumbles
                      C7sus4
     When you are not near.

         F
     Goodbye and I choke,
                    C
     I try to walk away and I stumble.
                     Gm7
     Though I try to hide it, it’s clear,
              Bb
     My world crumbles
                      C7sus4
     When you are not near.
