Been tryin' so hard just to talk to you, 
 D                      C               G 
Haven't heard half of what you want me to. 
Em  D  C

                                               G                        D 
There was this woman, and there was this man, 
                   Em 
And there was this moment they had a chance, 
        D                C 
To hold on to what they had. 
                  G                     D 
How could they be so in love, and still never see? 
       Em 
Now nothin' could be sadder than, 
       D           C                G 
this woman, this woman, and this man.

For all we've got to loose, 
                   Bb
