C                      F                 C
It only took a minute  for us to finally end it

                                    G7
I guess we'd seen it coming for sometime

       C                       F               C
And it only took one h-our  to sit and talk it over

       F                 C       G7      C
But it took us all night long to say good-bye

 
                       F             G7               C
Now the flame is gone I know and the ashes have grown cold

                          F          G7
And the love we had we'll never have again

C                     F          G7              C
But there's one ember left  that must have never died

         F                 C       G7      C
Cause it took us all night long to say good-bye

 
                            F                    C
Too many tears have fallen  too many dreams were broken

                                   G7
And holding on would be a waste of time

C                                 F               C
But sometimes I know I'll wonder  if it was really over

          F                 C       G7       C
'Cause it took us all night long to say good-bye

 
                       F             G7               C
Now the flame is gone I know and the ashes have grown cold

                          F          G7
And the love we had we'll never have again

C                     F          G7              C
But there's one ember left  that must have never died

         F                 C       G7      C
Cause it took us all night long to say good-bye
