[Intro]
G A# Am C
[Verse 1]
G A#
See the sleep that rests upon
Am C
The quiet street we're standing on
G A#
Is it time to go away?
Am C
Try again some other day?
[Chorus]
G A# Am C
These are the words we use,
G A# Am C
to say goodbye
G A# Am C
These are the words we use,
G A# Am C
to say goodbye
[Verse 2]
G A#
Bones crack, curtains drawn
Am C
On my back and the sheet is gone
G A#
Somewhere else I do not know
Am C
Time will tell and I will go
[Chorus]
G A# Am C
These are the words we use,
G A# Am C
to say goodbye
G A# Am C
These are the words we use,
G A# Am C
to say goodbye
[Bridge]
D C
(hammer the high e-string: F# with the D, and G with the C)
D C
[Verse 3]
G A#
I will wait, take a turn
Am C
Sort it out, let it burn
G A#
Empty out empty drawer
Am C
In my pockets there's nothing more
[Outro]
G A# Am C
These are the words we use,
G A# Am C
to say goodbye
