(Standard Tuning)
[Intro]
C - Am - Dm - G
[Verse 1]
C Am
The colder the night gets
Dm G
The further she strays
C Am
And he doesn't like it
Dm G
Being this way
C Dm
And she tried so hard to steer away form
G
The meeting place
C Am Dm G
But her heart had led her there
C - Am - Dm - G
[Verse 2]
C Am
She clings to his consciousness
Dm G
Wherever he lays
C Am
He struggles to sleep at night
Dm G
And during the day
C Am
He's worried she's waiting in his dreams
Dm G
To drag him back to the meeting place
C Am Dm
His love had left him there
G
Where her voice still echoes
[Chorus]
Dm G7
I'm sorry I met you darling
Dm G7
I'm sorry I met you
Em
As she turned into the night
Dm
All he had was the words
G7
I'm sorry I met you darling
Dm G7
I'm sorry I left you
C - Am - Dm - G
[Verse 3]
C Am
For weeks they had strolled around
Dm G
Playing the fools
C Am
They knew the time would come
Dm G
And time would be cruel
C Am
Because it's cruel to everyone
Dm G
He's crying out from the meeting place
C Am Dm
He's stranded himself there
G
Where her voice still echoes
[Chorus]
Dm G7
I'm sorry I met you darling
Dm G7
I'm sorry I met you
Em
As she turned into the night
Dm
All he had was the words
G7
I'm sorry I met you darling
Dm G7
I'm sorry I left you
C - Am - Dm - G
