A I walked around for hours BAB two ten pence pieces in my hand A I was alone and freezing BAB still trying hard to understand you A I left the others knowing BAB I had to work this by myself A But now the feeling's growing BAB I would be better off with their help
ABAB So baby what we've got has lately AB not been enough AB not been enough
ABABABAB
A I wish I had your scarf still BAB that once embraced and kept me warm A I wish you could be with me BAB in these last days when I am still hopelessly poor
E Stay out of trouble BA stay in touch E* BA Try not to think about me too much E Stay out of trouble BA stay in touch EBAB Try not to think about me too much
