[Intro]
Am F x2
[Verse]
Am
Your fingertips across my skin
F
The palm trees swaying in the wind
Am F
Images
Am
You sang me Spanish lullabies
F
The sweetest sadness in your eyes
Am F
Clever trick
G C
Well, I never want to see you unhappy
F G
I thought you'd want the same for me
[Chorus]
C
Goodbye, my almost lover
G
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
Dm
I'm trying not to think about you
F
Can't you just let me be?
C
So long, my luckless romance
G
My back is turned on you
Dm
Should've known you'd bring me heartache
F C
Almost lovers always do
[Verse]
Am
We walked along a crowded street
F
You took my hand and danced with me
Am F
Images
Am
And when you left, you kissed my lips
F
You told me you would never, never forget
Am F
These images, no
G C
Well, I'd never want to see you unhappy
D G
I thought you'd want the same for me
[Chorus]
C
Goodbye, my almost lover
G
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
Dm
I'm trying not to think about you
F
Can't you just let me be?
C
So long, my luckless romance
G
My back is turned on you
Dm
Should've known you'd bring me heartache
F C
Almost lovers always do
[Verse]
Am G
I cannot go to the ocean
Am
I cannot drive the streets at night
F
I cannot wake up in the morning
Am
Without you on my mind
G
Well so you're gone and I'm haunted
F
And I bet you are just fine
F
Did I make it that
Fm
Easy to walk right in and out
G
Of my life?
[Chorus]
C
Goodbye, my almost lover
G
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
Dm
I'm trying not to think about you
F
Can't you just let me be?
C
So long, my luckless romance
G
My back is turned on you
Dm
Should've known you'd bring me heartache
F C
Almost lovers always do
