Capo 1st 
A                         E 
There's nothing quite as lonely 
     F#m                D 
As a sky that turns to gray 
A                         E 
Or a love that just starts dying 
    F#m             D 
And slowly fades away 
 
C                      G 
You were my best companion 
          C              G 
Now we lie silent in the dark 
      C                  D?            E 
Why do you and me have to be worlds apart 
 
 
There's nothing quite as empty 
As when children go away 
And all that's left are memories 
Of all those yesterdays 
 
You can't understand the feeling 
'Til it finds its way to your heart 
Why do you and me have to be worlds apart 
 
There's nothing quite as ugly 
As two people full of hate 
We'll all end up as equals 
When we stand at heaven's gate 
 
Love is still the answer 
It's the only place to start 
Why do you and me have to be worlds apart
