This is my first tab, so please point out any mistakes I made. :D


Intro:
C F C F C G F

Verse 1:
C
Well the first time that I saw her,
F               C
Standing in the middle of the road.
F         C
Eyes as bright as Christmas lights,
C           G
Wearing someone else?s clothes.
C

I did my best to ignore her,
  F            C
But Ignoring my best pretty soon.
F           C
We spent the night all tangled tied,
G          F       C    F C
In an armchair in my friends front room.

Chorus:
    F         G            C    F C
I said darling you know, darling you know I cant stay.
      Bb          F         C    F C
Cause I?ve given my heart and my word to a girl far away.
C         Em           F          Fm
I felt weak as she kissed my cheek, and aside when I heard her say.
Am         G      F     G      C
Never knew I could get my heart broken, in less than a day.

F C F C G F

Verse 2:
C
Oh and the next time that I saw her,
F            C
Must have been a year or more.
F         C
Face stained with mascara,
C          G
Shivering outside my door.
C
I did my best to assure her,
  F            C
But assurance isn't easy to give.
F             C
You've never been sure of anything much,
G          F     C    F C
And get less so the longer you live.

Chorus 2:
     F         G            C    F C
She said darling you know, darling you know I can?t stay.
      Bb          F         C    F C
Cause I've given my heart and my word to a boy far away.
C        Em         F             Fm
I spoke soft and pretended to cough, like I didn't care either way.
Am         G      F     G    C    F C
Never knew I could get my heart broken in so many ways.

F C F C
F C F C G F

Verse 3:
C
And the last time that I saw her,
F            C
Standing in the pouring rain.
F       C
Hair a little shorter,
C               G
But everything else looked the same.
C
I could'a told her that I adored her,
F                 C
She coulda said she felt the same way.
F            C        G        F    Am    F
But we just smiled cause sometimes words, aren?t the right words to say.
           C        G        F         C
We just smiled cause sometimes words, aren?t the right words to say.
