[Verse 1]
[Em]I stan[B]d on t[G]he tallest build[B]ing
[C]and stare down [D]at the grey [Em]runway
and the [B]tail- [G]smoke of [B]the Boeing jet
that's [C]taking you so [D]far [Em]away.[D][C]
Be[D]lieve me, I

[Verse 2]
[C]
don't want you to [D]leave [C]me;
look in my eyes and [D]you'll see them
[C]filled with [G]pain.[C]
Ima[D]gine [C]just how[D] sad I'll be
in [C]some future day when [D]I turn
and [C]no longer [G]see your face.
All I [D]can now [Em]cry [G]is goodbye,
[D]love, goo[Em]dbye.
In a [B]week, in a

[Verse 3]
[G]month, in a [B]year,
[C]in a lifetime how [D]I'll feel none can [Em]tell.
All I [B]know [G]is now you're [B]going
there's [C]really no- one [D]here to [Em]help.[D][C]
Be[D]lieve me...

[Interlude 1]
[C][D][C][D][C][G][C][D][C]
[D]Already it's

[Verse 4]
[C]too[D] la[C]te,[D][G][D][Em][G][D][Em]
you're through the boarding- gate
an[G]d walking on the tarmac.
[Em]Already you are free,
already you've left me
and [G]cannot bear to [C]look back, can you?

[Verse 5]
[Em]A brief ta[B]xi on [G]the runway[B],
[C]then up into the [D]stilling
[Em]night sky;
and I'm [B]standing [G]on the
observa[B]tion tower,
[C]my eyes too dimmed
[D]by distance to [Em]cry.[D][C]
[D]Be lieve

[Verse 6]
[C]me.[D]..
[C][D][C][G][C][D]

[Verse 7]
[C]
[D]All[C] I c[D]an [C]now[G] do[D][Em]
is [G]walk away [D]alone,
without [Em]you.
