I see a change has (Fmaj7)come in to our lives;
it’s not the same as it (Bb)used to be.
And it’s not too late to re al ize our mis takes.
We’re just not (Gm7)right for each (Bb)oth
(F)er.
Love has slipped a way
and left us on ly friends.
We al most seem like (Bb)stran
gers,
all that’s left be tween us are the (F)mem o ries we shared of the (Gm7)times we thought we cared for each (Bb6)oth
(F)er.
Now there’s noth ing left to do but (Fmaj7)go our sep ’rate ways
and pick up all the piec es left be (Bb)hind
us.
And may be some day
some where a long the way
an (C7)oth er love will (Bb)find
(F)us.
(F)Some day when she’s old er may be (Fmaj7)she will un der stand
(F7)why her mom and dad are not to (Bb)geth er.
The tears that she will cry when I (Gm)have to say good bye
will (Gm)tear at my (Gm7)heart for (Bb)ev
(F)er.
