Key: F
Introduction: F Gm C F
F C F Bb
Darling, there is something I must tell you, you must know.
Dm G C
But it's so hard to say the words I feel.
Bb C F Bb
This fancy that I'm on has been going on too long.
Dm Bb C
It's time we stopped pretending things are real.
F C F Bb
'Cause I've been living deep in sin. I've been living blind.
Dm G C
And I don't know just what's right or wrong.
Bb C F Bb
To take a chance on losing you was such a silly thing to do.
Dm Bb C F F7
The chance I might wake up and find you gone.
Bb C F Bb
Blue, so blue, my love is burning blue.
Dm Gm Bb C
Any brighter flame would be a lie.
Bb C F Bb
Blue, so blue, my love still burns for you,
Dm Bb C
But I know that I'll only make you cry.
F C F Bb
A thief can only steal from you. He cannot break your heart.
Dm G C
He'll never touch the precious things inside.
Bb C F Bb
So one like you should surely be miles and miles away from me,
Dm Bb C F F7
Then you'd never care how much I've lied.
Bb C F Bb
So try to understand the pain. It takes so long when I explain.
Dm Bb C Bb F
Please, don't you forget how much I've lied.
