Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]
The hour's late [Bm]and the

[Verse 1]
lights are low
[G]I'm walking home just kic[A]king stones
I [D]waited at [Bm]the
deopt you never showed
You missed the [G]last bus hours [A]ago

[Verse 2]
I re[D]member the first time
[Bm]I saw you on the street
[D]You looked so pretty my[Bm]
[G]heart skipped a beat
I can't wait any longer
[A]but I still feel the heat

[Verse 3]
I'm [D]down but I'm still on [A]my feet
[D]I walked on down the
[Bm]old [G]fairground
Up from the docks blew a [A]lonely sound
[D]I sat for a while on the [Bm]cold
hard ground

[Verse 4]
Watched [G]the stars slowly turn
as the [A]earth spun around
As the [D]past falls behind up
[Bm]ahead there's a crack
Of [D]light shining bright through
the [G]night so black
Like a runaway train rolling
[A]down the track

[Verse 5]
From [D]here there's no turning [A]back
[D]Listen to me baby
Once upon a time
My [G]heart was an ocean

[Verse 6]
[A]You swam against the tide
The [D]time is past for grieving
My tears have all run dry
I'll [G]leave you with my love

[Verse 7]
And [A]now I say good[D]bye[G][D][G]
[D]The bottles broke the[Bm] glasses
are cracked
[G]The cards are all dealt and
[A]the chips have been stacked
The [D]lamp shades busted and
the [Bm]curtains are torn

[Verse 8]
The [G]door keeps knocking but
there's [A]nobody home
[D]I stood by the road brushed
a tear [Bm]from my eye
Cursed the [D]cars and the rain
and the [G]rolling grey sky
I turned around turned my
[A]back on that town

[Verse 9]
And I [D]never looked [A]back [D]aga[G]in[A]
