Tom: F
Intro: F7+ | Bb/C
F7+ Gm7
It's sad to think we're not gonna make it
Bb/C
And it's got into the point
C7
Where we just can't take it
Bb7+ Am7 Bb7+ Bbm6
For some ungodly reason, We just won't let it die
F/C Gm
I guess neither one of us
Bb/C F7+ | Bb/C
Neither one of us wants to be the first to say goodbye
F7+ Gm7
I keep wondering What I'm gonna do without you
Bb/C F7+ Cm7
And I guess you must be wondering the same thing too
F7 Bb7+
So we go on
Am7 Bb7+ Bbm6
Go on together Living our lie
F/C Gm7
Because I guess neither one of us
Bb/C F7+ | Cm7 | F7
Neither one of us wants to be the first to say goodbye
Bb
Everytime I find the nerve F7+
Everytime I find the nerve to say I'm leaving
Cm7
Memories
Bb/C F7+
Those old memories get in my way
F7 Bb7+
Lord knows it's only me Am7
Only know it's only me That I'm deceiving
Dm Dm7+
When it comes to saying goodbye
Dm7 Dm6 Bb/C
That’s a simple word that I just cannot say
F7+
There can be no way
Gm7
This can’t have a happy ending
No, no, So we just go on
Hurting and pretending
Convincing ourselves to give it just one more try
Because I guess neither one of us wants to be the first to say
Farewell my love, Goodbye
