Capo 6

G                          C            G 
Well the first time that I saw her 
C                            G 
Standing in the middle of the road 
C                 G 
Eyes as bright as Christmas lights 
C       G              D 
Wearing someone else’s clothes 
G                 C 
I did my best to ignore her 
    C                       G 
But Ignoring my best pretty soon 
C                   G 
Spent the night all tangled tied 
G                    D             G 
In an armchair in my friends front room. 

Chorus: 
       C                 C                       G 
I said darling you know, darling you know I cant stay. 
            G                    C                   G 
Cause I’ve given my heart and my word to a girl far away. 
G             C                                         G 
I spoke soft, pretended to cough like I didn’t care either way 
G                  C            G         D            G 
Never knew I could get my heart broken, in less than a day. 

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

Chorus 2: 
         C                 C                        G 
She said darling you know, darling you know I can’t stay 
          G                   C                  G 
Cause Iv given my hear and my word to a boy far away 
G                   C 
I fell weak as she kissed my cheek, 
C                       G 
Inside when I heard her say. 
G                   C            G         D      G 
Never knew I could get my heart broken in so many ways 
C C   G  G  C C  G G 
Ooooh ohhhh ohhh ohh 

verse 3: 
G                         C         G 
Well the last time that I saw her 
C                       G 
Standing in the pouring rain 
C                    G 
Hair looked a little shorter 
C              G          D 
Everything else looked the same 
G                        C 
I coulda told her that I adored her 
 C                            G  
She coulda said she felt the same way 
C                      G              D                        G 
We just smiled cause sometimes words aren’t the right words to say 
C                      G              D                        G 
We just smiled cause sometimes words aren’t the right words to say
