[INTRO: ]Am9 Dsus4 G C G 

C                      G 
I knew you wanted to tell me 
C                       G 
In your voice there was something wrong 

C       F       C     G      D    Em 
But if you would turn your face away from me 
            Am                 C C 
You cannot tell me you're so strong 

(SAME AS ABOVE) 
C                          G 
Just let me ask of you one small thing 
C                         G 
As we have shared so many tears 
C    F      C   G      D            Em 
With fervor our dreams we planned a whole life long 
            Am           C C 
Now are scattered in the wind

In the terms of endearment 
                     G Am7           C 
In the terms of the life that you love 
                     G  Am7          C 
In the terms of the years that pass you by 
                     G   Am7    C 
In the terms of the reasons why   
  

SAME AS ABOVE 
C                               G 
Through the years I've grown to love you 
C                              G 
Though your commitment to most would offend 
C    F      C   G      D            Em 
But I stuck by you holding on with my foolish pride 
            Am           C C 
Waiting for you to give in 


C                               G 
You never really tried or so it seems 
C                      G 
I've had more than myself to blame 
C    F      C   G      D            Em 
I've had enough of trying everything 
            Am           CC 
And this time it is the end

In the terms of endearment 
                     G Am7           C 
In the terms of the life that you love 
                     G  Am7          C 
In the terms of the years that pass you by 
                     G   Am7    C 
In the terms of the reasons why     


C                      G 
There's no more coming back this way 
C                         G 
The path is overgrown and strewn with thorns 
C    F      C   G      D            Em 
They've torn the life blood from your naked eyes 
            Am           CC 
Cast aside to be folorn

Funny, how it seems that all I've tried to do 
Am9                              D      Am9 
Seemed to make no difference to you at all
