Intro: C#m E A  E 


verse 1 

A 
All I ever wanted 
      E 
Was a walk down the road 
A                         E 
With you there holding my arm 
C#m              E 
But the hoot owl moans 
A          E 
For me all alone 
Tell me pretty baby 
                     B        E 
Are you really gonna break my heart? 


verse 2 

A 
Has it all been a lie 
     E 
No I can't believe that 
A                         E 
Tell me what I hear isn't true 
       C#m        E 
Is the owl in the oak tree 
    A             E 
The only one here with me 
Tell me pretty baby 
                     B 
Are you really gonna break my heart? 


Instrumental: C#m  E  A  E B A 


verse 3 

A 
Is it death or livin 
     E 
That scares me the most 
         A               E 
Or is it just plain bein alone 
          C#m    E 
Seems I'm always alone 
          A        E 
When that hoot owl moans 
Tell me pretty baby 
                     B 
Are you really gonna break my heart? 


[Refrão]

      C#m            E 
Don't call me, don't write me 
         A         E 
And I'll leave you alone 
                      A 
So we can forget what we had 
    C#m        E 
The owl can console me 
         A        E 
With his midnight tune 
But I don't think I've ever 
        B 
Felt so sad 


[Refrão]

                  E 
So I draw all the curtains 
And I lock all the doors 
      A 
And I dream of that walk 
         E 
Down the road 
        C#m             E 
But the hoot owl awakes me 
      A           E 
And a cold shiver shakes me 
Tell me pretty baby 
                     B 
Are you really gonna break my heart?
