Lyrics

(Bb)Dreams,

that’s where I (Cm)have to go

to see your beau ti (F)ful face an y more.

I (Cm)stare at a pic (Gm)ture of you and lis ten to the ra di (F)o.

Hope, hope there’s a (Cm)con ver sa tion where we both ad mit we had it (F)good.

But un til then, it’s (Cm)a li en a (Gm)tion; I know that much is un der (F)stood.

And I re a lize, if you ask me how I’m do ing, I would say I’m do ing just fine.

I would lie and say that you’re not on my mind.

But I go out and I sit down at a ta ble set for two.

And fi nal ly, I’m forced to face the truth:

No mat ter what they say, I’m

not o ver you.

(Cm)Not o ver you.

(Bb)Damn,

damn, girl, you (Cm)do it well;

and I thought you were in no (F)cent.

You took this heart and (Cm)put it through hell,

but still you’re mag ni fi (F)cent.

(Bb)I,

I’m a (Cm)boom e rang,

does n’t mat ter how you throw (F)me.

Turn a round and I’m (Cm)back in the game,

e ven bet ter than the old (F)me.

But I’m not

e ven close

with out you.

If you ask

And if I

had the chance

to re new,

you know there is n’t a thing I would n’t (Eb)do.

I could get back on the right track

but (Bb)on ly if you’d be con (Eb)vinced.

So un til (F)then...

If you ask me how I’m do ing, I would say I’m do ing just fine.

I would lie and say that you’re not on my mind.

(CN.C.)But I go out and I sit down at a ta ble set for two.

And fi nal ly, I’m forced to face the truth:

No mat ter what I say, I’m

not o ver you.

(Cm)Not o ver you.

Not o (F)ver you.

(Cm)Not o ver you.
