Standard Tuning
[Verse]
C G
The single saddest things i ever heard you say,
F Am
was on the day i told that i had to go away
Dm G
you said darling baby please if you really mean to leave
F Am
cant i just hold you a little while longer
C G
and the single hardest thing that i ever had to do
F Am
was take those arms from round me and walk away from you
Dm G
and i know i shouldn't have kissed you as i left
F Am
but darling i should have been stronger
[Chorus]
F G
not with a bang but with a wimper
Am C
it wasn't hard but kinda simple
F G
three short steps from your bed to your door
C C/B Am F
darling i cant look you in the eyes now and tell you im sure,
G C
if i love you anymore
[Verse]
C G
You see I've given you my best, I've given you these years,
F Am
of love and understanding of telephone calls and tears
Dm G
but now the little things you do that used to make me love you
F Am
just cramps my heart a little I let it slip
C G
we met this sorry end, from a picture perfect start
F Am
the romance and the running down of disconnected hearts
Dm G
two people sad and free you know they used to be
F Am
more than just a pair of sinking ships
[Chorus]
F G
not with a bang but with a wimper
Am C
it wasn't hard but kinda simple
F G
three short steps from your bed to your door
C C/B Am F
darling i cant look you in the eyes now and tell you im sure,
G C
if i love you anymore
[Outro]
