I waited 'til I saw the sun
F#m F#m B B D D A A
I don't know why I didn't come

I left you by the house of fun

I don't know why I didn't come

A A A7 A7 D D C#7 C#7
When I saw the break of day
F#m F#m B B D D A A
I wished that I could fly away
A A A7 A7 D D C#7 C#7
Instead of kneeling in the sand
F#m F#m B B D D A A
Catching teardrops in my hand

But you'll be on my mind

Out across the endless sea
F#m F#m B B D D A A
I would die in ecstasy
A A A7 A7 D D C#7 C#7
But I'll be a bag of bones
F#m F#m B B D D A A
Driving down the road along

I feel as empty as a drum

I don't know why I didn't come
F#m F#m B B D D A A
I don't know why I didn't come
