you say stay and never leave

you say meant for ever

I could believe you, but I don't

you say we're almost all alone together

all alone

you say you will

I know you won't

I was wrong to ever doubt

I can get along without

D A B5

I can love my fellow man

D E #1

but I'm damned if I'll love yours

in a bar that's always closing

in a world where people shout

I don't wanna talk this over

I don't wanna talk it out

I was quite impressed until I hit the floor

isn't that what friends are for?

pain looks great on other people

that's what they're for

Remarks:

The above is my interpretation of the song for one guitar, but since

there are (at least) two acoustics + a bass, it's, as usual, quite

tricky to sort out what plays what. It's especially hard at the part

between the asterisks.

Also, I really don't know if "B5" is really called B5 :-)
