Tom: E

E                                               A 
Never again, Isn’t that what you said? 
            E 
You’ve been through this before 
                                                                A 
This time you swore you’d think with your head 
A                                          C#m 
No one, would ever have you again 
            A 
And if takin’ was gonna get done 
                                        B 
You’d decide where and when 

                        C#m  B     A 
Just when you think you got it down 
                   E                         A 
Your heart securely tied and bound 
                      F#m         A  B   C#m Riff: G# A G# C#m G# A F# A F# A 
They whisper, promises in the dark 

E                                                                      A 
Armed and ready you fought love battles in the night 
     E                                                                    A 
But too many opponents made you weary of the fight 
A                                                       C#m 
Blinded by passion, you foolishly let someone in 
             A 
All the warnings went off in your head 
                            B 
Still you had to give in 

                       C#m  B    A 
Just when you think you got it down 
                    E                    A 
Resistance no where to be found 
                     F#m         A  B   C#m Riff: G# A G# C#m G# A F# A F# A 
They whisper, promises in the dark 

        A        B                                F# 
But promises, you know what there for 
              E                           F# 
It sounds so convincing, but you heard it before 
             A       B                     C#m 
Cause talk is cheap and you gotta be sure 
           C#m C#m C#m C#m 
And so you put up your guard 
                  B                       A          B        C#m 
And you try to be hard but your heart says try again

     E                                                                   A 
You desperately search for a way to conquer the fear

No line of attack has been p lanned to fight back the tears 
          A                                               C#m 
Where brave and restless dreams are both won and lost 
            A                                                              B 
On the edge is where it seems it’s well worth the cost 
                         C#m  B    A 
Just when you think you got it down 
                       E                   A 
Your heart in pieces on the ground
