Intro: Gmaj G7 | Cmaj B7
       Em7 A7 | D7sus4 Cadd9

 Gmaj      G7    Cmaj        B7
I waited ’til I saw the sun,
Em7           A7      D7sus4    G  D7sus4
I don’t know why I didn’t come.
Gmaj        G7      Cmaj        B7
I left you by the house of fun,
Em7           A7      D7sus4 G  G7
I don’t know why I didn’t come,
 Em7          A7      D7sus4 G
I don’t know why I didn’t come.

Gmaj    G7        Cmaj      B7
When I saw the break of day
Em7           A7      D7sus4    G  D7sus4
I wished that I could fly away,
Gmaj         G7       Cmaj       B7
Instead of kneeling in the sand,
Em7        A7      D7sus4 G
Catching teardrops in my hand.

      Em7      A7/6        D     D7
   My heart is drenched in wine.
       Em7       A7/6  D7
   But you’ll be on my mind
   D7/C  G/B  D6/A
   Forever.

Gmaj  G7       Cmaj        B7
Out across the endless sea
Em7     A7     D7sus4  G  D7sus4
I will die in ecstasy.
Gmaj      G7     Cmaj       B7
But I’ll be a bag of bones,
Em7      A7      D7sus4      G
Driving down the road alone.

 Em7           A7/6        D     D7
   My heart is drenched in wine.
       Em7       A7/6  D7
   But you’ll be on my mind
   D7/C  G/B  D6/A
   Forever.

Instrumental: Gmaj G7 | Cmaj B7
              Em7 A7 | D7sus4    } 2 times

Gmaj       G7     Cmaj         B7
Something has to make you run,
Em7           A7      D7sus4    G  D7sus4
I don’t know why I didn’t come.
 Gmaj       G7    Cmaj     B7
I feel as empty as a drum,
Em7           A7      D7sus4 G  G7
I don’t know why I didn’t come,
 Em7          A7         D7sus4 G  G/D
I don’t know why I didn’t come,
 Em7          A7      D7sus4    G
I don’t know why I didn’t come.
