She called up
                D#   |  G#  |
And gave me the news
              D#        |  G#  |
It made me so sad, sad, sad
                  Gm
There was nothing I could do


                D#  |  G#  |
She’s too far away
               D#  |  G#  |
And you had to leave
              Gm       G#
I can never repay you now
             D#        |  G#  |
For what you gave to me


   Cm                              Fm
A whisper that could blow a chasm wide
           Cm
It took us all
           G7
It took us all
Cm                                 Fm
Pushed apart the mountains and the tide
           Cm   |  G7  |
It took us all

It made me so sad, sad, sad
                  Gm
There was nothing I could do


         D#   |  G#  |
I was so lost
              D#   |  G#  |
In delirious sleep
            Gm                       |  G#  |
I wasn’t prepared for that position
             D#       |  G#  |
And maybe I was naïve


    Cm         D#      G#
But truth is a mortal blow
      Cm           D#     G#
You know all there is to know
    Cm            D#       G#
The hurt that you have so close
             A#
Is something better now


Cm                      Fm
La la la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la
