[Intro 1]
[D][Dm][D][Dm][D][Dm]

[Verse 1]
I read [D]your book
[Dm]
And I find [D]it strange[Dm]
That I know that [F]girl and I
know [Am]her world
A little [D]too well[Dm]
And I didn't [D]know[Dm]
By giving [D]my [Dm]hand
That I would be [F]written down,
sliced around, [Am]passed down
Among stranger's [D]hands

[Verse 2]
Three days in [F]Rome[Am]
Where [B]do [G]we go
I'll always re[F]member[Am]

[Interlude 1]
Three days in Rome
[D][Dm]
[G][D][Dm][G][D][Dm]
Nev[G]er again

[Verse 3]
[D][Dm]
Would I see your [D]face[Dm]
You carry [F]a pen and a paper and [Am]no
time and no words [D]you waste[Dm]
Oh, [D]you're a voyeur[Dm]
The worst kind [D]of thief[Dm]
To take what [F]happened to us
To write down [Am]everything that went on
[D]between you and me

[Verse 4]
Oh, three days [F]in Rome[G][Am][B]
And I stand [G]alone
I'll al[Am]ways remem[F]ber,
[Am]mmm
Three days in [D]Rome

[Interlude 2]
[D][F][G]
[D][F][G][D]

[Verse 5]
And what do [D]I get[Dm]
[D]Do I get [Dm]revenge
While you lay it all [F]out
Without [Am]any doubt
Of how this would [D]end[Dm]
Sometimes [D]it goes[Dm]
Sometimes [D]we come[Dm]
To learn by mis[F]take that
the love you once [Am]made
Can't be un[D]done

[Verse 6]
Oh, but three days in [F]Rome[G]
[Am]I laid my heart out
[B]I laid my soul down
And [G]oh, I'll al[Am]ways remem[F]ber[Am]
Three days in Rome
