[Intro]
C   G   F   C G
[Estrofe]
C 
The carbonation in my drink 
G 
The bubbles rise while my heart sinks 
F                                     C G 
And all I tend to do is think of you  
C 
Was it easier to pack your bags 
G 
And book that flight to Paris as 
F                                      C G 
The plane began to move that afternoon
[Instrumental]
C   G   F   C G
[Estrofe]
C 
When all the trains have pulled away 
G 
From local stations in decay 
F                                         C G 
It's I who waits, it's you who's late again  
C 
And did you think of me when you made love 
G 
To him, was it the same as us 
F                                      C G 
Or was it different, it must have been
[Instrumental]
C   G   F   C G
[Estrofe]
C          G       C 
And all the pretty dames 
       F        Am      G 
They'll hug and kiss you all the same 
               F         C 
And when they go, they're gone 
        Am  G   C    F 
They're not run-ning late 
C       G      C 
Oh all, all the pretty dames
[Estrofe]
C             G             C 
And the kids you hold in your arms 
     F     Am    G 
With promises to protect them from harm 
            F          C 
But they grow, and they go 
    Am     G  C  F 
And you're all a-lone 
       C              G             C 
All the kids, all the kids that you hold
[Estrofe]
          C             G         C 
And it's a shame that it ends this way 
     F       Am      G 
With nothing left to say 
       F           C            Am G   C F 
So just sit on your hands, while I walk aw-ay 
C             G             C 
It's a shame, it's a shame, it's a shame 
        C     G        C 
When my hands begin to shake 
    F       Am           G 
When bitterness is all I taste 
       F         C 
And may car won't stop 
     Am G   C   F 
Cause I cut the brakes 
  C            G          C 
I hold on to a hope in my fate
[Outro]
C     G     C 
Oh oh ah ah hey hey 
    F   Am        G 
May you return to love one day 
     F            C 
Well I hope and I pray 
    Am  G    C   F 
You get what you gave  
C     G     C 
Oh oh ah ah hey hey
