Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
A Bm
Remember when our so-called friend would not call out to you
F#m D Dsus2
while tumbling loosely out a hole punched through your home
A Bm
It's pretty clear though you could hear you truly finally knew
F#m D Dsus2
in time he'd tell his tale the way he'd like it told
F#m Bm
Now he isn't on the phone
Bm D
and his story might as well be so
A Bm
Well loving is as loving does and I'd say we should know
F#m D Dsus2
because we both have loved have lost and are alone
A Bm
Your face's falling tears to me they're lovely and they're dear
F#m D Dsus2
though you don't love me and it's clear that I will never see you in my arms
F#m Bm
There's no room in your heart
Bm D Dsus2
for even this finely-sharpened dart
A F#m Bm D A
although I had started to think there might be hope it isn't so
Bridge: A Bm F#m D Dsus2
F#m Bm D A
So wake up make up some new song again around the same tune
A Bm
The water cools the leaves they fall the sun it bends the summer ends
D A
our so-called friend doesn't need you
A Bm
So proceed out the door and down the street December's lying near
F#m D Dsus2
but in the oven's heat this house is now a home
A Bm
Sixty days of trips and stays you took to tell me dear
F#m D Dsus2
that you cannot love me because you secretly still love a stone
F#m Bm
Although I put my lips to your face
Bm D
trying to push his kiss out of its place
A F#m Bm D A
although my heart started to race now it has slowed I'll let it go
End: A Bm F#m D (X2) A
