Intro: Dmaj D7 | Gmaj F#7
       Bm7 E7 | A7sus4 Gadd9

 Dmaj      D7    Gmaj        F#7
I waited ’til I saw the sun,
Bm7           E7      A7sus4    D  A7sus4
I don’t know why I didn’t come.
Dmaj        D7      Gmaj        F#7
I left you by the house of fun,
Bm7           E7      A7sus4 D  D7
I don’t know why I didn’t come,
 Bm7          E7      A7sus4 D
I don’t know why I didn’t come.

Dmaj    D7        Gmaj      F#7
When I saw the break of day
Bm7           E7      A7sus4    D  A7sus4
I wished that I could fly away,
Dmaj         D7       Gmaj       F#7
Instead of kneeling in the sand,
Bm7        E7      A7sus4 D
Catching teardrops in my hand.

      Bm7      E7/6        A     A7
   My heart is drenched in wine.
       Bm7       E7/6  A7
   But you’ll be on my mind
   A7/G  D/F# A6/E
   Forever.

Dmaj  D7       Gmaj        F#7
Out across the endless sea
Bm7     E7     A7sus4  D  A7sus4
I will die in ecstasy.
Dmaj      D7     Gmaj       F#7
But I’ll be a bag of bones,
Bm7      E7      A7sus4      D
Driving down the road alone.

 Bm7           E7/6        A     A7
   My heart is drenched in wine.
       Bm7       E7/6  A7
   But you’ll be on my mind
   A7/G  D/F# A6/E
   Forever.

Instrumental: Dmaj D7 | Gmaj F#7
              Bm7 E7 | A7sus4     } 2 times

Dmaj       D7     Gmaj         F#7
Something has to make you run,
Bm7           E7      A7sus4    D  A7sus4
I don’t know why I didn’t come.
 Dmaj       D7    Gmaj     F#7
I feel as empty as a drum,
Bm7           E7      A7sus4 D  D7
I don’t know why I didn’t come,
 Bm7          E7         A7sus4 D  D/A
I don’t know why I didn’t come,
 Bm7          E7      A7sus4    D
I don’t know why I didn’t come.
