    I spend  the night…           she’ll be there….

Em          A7
I spend the night in a chair thinking
Dm7                     G
she’ll be there but she never comes
           Em                    A7
And then I wake up  and wipe the Sleep from my eyes
      Dm7                  G
and I rise to face another day
    Em        A7  Dm7  G
Without her.

    We burst the pretty….         To the moon….   Beautiful thing….


D            DMaj7
We burst the pretty balloon
           D7                 G7
It took us to the moon such a beautiful thing
         Em               A7
But it’s ended now and it sounds like a lie
     Dm7               G
If I say I’d rather die than live
    Em       A7  Dm7  G
Without her.
