[Intro 1]
[Am][Dm][E][Am]
[Dm][E][Am]
[Dm][E][Am][E]
[Am][Dm][E][Am]

[Dm][E][Am]

[Verse 1]
We were two ships [Am]passing [Dm]that stopped to meet
[E]Who struck a d[Am]eal to be discreet
We're both [Dm]adults - We knew the rules
[E]Some passions burn as
[Am]quick as the cool

[Verse 2]
Yeah, [Am]sure, you curled my toes
and you [Dm]made me see God
We [E]even had a crowd,
they'd [Am]have stood to applaud
The earth moved beneath us
and the [Dm]planets aligned
We [E]did what could make all
the saint[Am]s go blind

[Verse 3]
But [F]all that aside, when I [G]left that implied
That you'd [Am]go your way
and that I'd go mine
[F]I fantasized we'd have
[G]distance and time

[Verse 4]
[G]And [Am]I'd send you diamonds
[Dm]- I'd send you pearls
I'd [E]send your favorite flowers
from the [Am]edge of the world
I would [F]write you a song each [C]day that speaks of
the [G]ache in my heart every [E]day we're apart
I would [Am]call upon the
hour [Dm]24 times a day
Just to [E]hear your voice on
your [Am]voice mail play
I'd be count[F]ing down the seconds
[C]until my next chance to kiss [G]you
But how can I mis[E]s you - whoah - when you won't

[Interlude 1]
go away?
[Am][Dm][E][Am]
[Dm][E][Am]

[Verse 5]
Want my [Dm]opinion? To tell the truth...
[E]It's like you're wearing
[Am]a Velcro suit
Can't move an [Dm]inch without you there
[E]Can't say goodbye 'cause
[Am]you've stolen my air

[Verse 6]
Now I've [Am]got me a shadow where
my shad[Dm]ow used to be
[E]When all I wanted was a mem[Am]ory

[Verse 7]
Just [Am]give me some room
before [Dm]lust turns to hate
[E]I'd rather starve tha[Am]n suffocate

[Verse 8]
[Am]I'd send you diamonds
[Dm]- I'd send you pearls
I'd [E]send your favorite flowers
from the [Am]edge of the world
I would [F]write you a song each [C]day that speaks of
the [G]ache in my heart every [E]day we're apart
I would [Am]call upon the
hour [Dm]24 times a day
Just to [E]hear your voice on
your [Am]voice mail play
I'd be count[F]ing down the seconds
[C]until my next chance to kiss [G]you
But how can I mis[E]s you - whoah - when you
[Am]won't [Dm]go[E][Am]

[Verse 9]
away?
[Dm]
[E]I've [Am]forgott[F]en where
I be[G]gin and you end
So let me
[Am][Dm][E]

[Verse 10]
[Am]
[Dm]Just[Am] send you diamonds
[Dm]- I'll send you pearls
I'd [E]send your favorite flowers
from the [Am]edge of the world
I would [F]write you a song each day [C]that
speaks of the [G]ache in my heart
every [E]day we're apart
I would [Am]call upon the
hour [Dm]24 times a day
Just to [E]hear your voice on
your [Am]voice mail play
I'd be count[F]ing down the seconds
un[C]til my next chance to [G]kiss you
But how can I mis[E]s you - whoah - when you won't
[Am]go[Dm][E][Am]

[Outro 1]
away?
[Am][Dm][E][Am]
