Key: G
Introduction:
G7M(9) C/G
Ever since that first night
G7M(9) G
When I gave my love to you
G7M(9) C/G
Everything just seems so right
G7M(9) G
You are my sunlight, shining through
A D D/C Em
And I've tried so, not to let it show
A D D/C Bm7 D/A G
Yet it seems sad, because I know
D Am D7 G
No matter how hard I try
D Am D7
No matter how hard I try
D7 G G7M(9) C/G G7M(9)
It's always a goodbye
G G7M(9)
You smile softly as you leave
C/G G7M(9) G
My bed and I tightly hold your hand
G7M(9) C/G
You lean down to kiss my head
G7M(9) G
But there's nothing to be said
A D D/C Em
And if you say you want to stay
A D D/C Bm7 D/A G
I'd know you'd soon be on your way
D Am D7 G
No matter how hard I try
D Am D7
No matter how hard I try
D7 G
It's always a goodbye
D7 G C
So here we stand, you and I
D7 G
You are too kind, I'm too shy
G Am G/B C D7 Em
To say what we really mean
A D D/C Em
So we make life a masquerade
A D D/C Bm7 D/A G
Never showing all, only the parts we play
D Am D7 G
No matter how hard I try
D Am D7
No matter how hard I try
D7 G G7M(9) C/G
It's always a goodbye
G7M(9) G
It's always a goodbye
G7M(9) C/G G7M(9) G
(No matter how hard I try)
G7M(9) C/G G7M(9) G
(No matter how hard I try)
