Intro: Emaj E7 | Amaj G#7
       C#m7 F#7 | B7sus4 Aadd9

 Emaj      E7    Amaj        G#7
I waited ’til I saw the sun,
C#m7          F#7     B7sus4    E  B7sus4
I don’t know why I didn’t come.
Emaj        E7      Amaj        G#7
I left you by the house of fun,
C#m7          F#7     B7sus4 E  E7
I don’t know why I didn’t come,
 C#m7         F#7     B7sus4 E
I don’t know why I didn’t come.

Emaj    E7        Amaj      G#7
When I saw the break of day
C#m7          F#7     B7sus4    E  B7sus4
I wished that I could fly away,
Emaj         E7       Amaj       G#7
Instead of kneeling in the sand,
C#m7       F#7     B7sus4 E
Catching teardrops in my hand.

      C#m7     F#7/6       B     B7
   My heart is drenched in wine.
       C#m7      F#7/6 B7
   But you’ll be on my mind
   B7/A  E/G# B6/F#
   Forever.

Emaj  E7       Amaj        G#7
Out across the endless sea
C#m7    F#7    B7sus4  E  B7sus4
I will die in ecstasy.
Emaj      E7     Amaj       G#7
But I’ll be a bag of bones,
C#m7     F#7     B7sus4      E
Driving down the road alone.

 C#m7          F#7/6       B     B7
   My heart is drenched in wine.
       C#m7      F#7/6 B7
   But you’ll be on my mind
   B7/A  E/G# B6/F#
   Forever.

Instrumental: Emaj E7 | Amaj G#7
              C#m7 F#7 | B7sus4   } 2 times

Emaj       E7     Amaj         G#7
Something has to make you run,
C#m7          F#7     B7sus4    E  B7sus4
I don’t know why I didn’t come.
 Emaj       E7    Amaj     G#7
I feel as empty as a drum,
C#m7          F#7     B7sus4 E  E7
I don’t know why I didn’t come,
 C#m7         F#7        B7sus4 E  E/B
I don’t know why I didn’t come,
 C#m7         F#7     B7sus4    E
I don’t know why I didn’t come.
