Fatal Hesitation
Words & Music by Chris de Burgh
Intro: Dm - Bbmaj7 - Fmaj7 - Bb - Dm - Bbmaj7- Fmaj7 - Csus - C
Dm Bb F Bb
The cafes are all deserted, the streets are wet again,
Dm Bb F Csus C
There's nothing quite like an out of season holiday town in the rain,
Bbmaj7 G7
When the tourists go and the cold winds blow,
F C Bb G9
And my girl is on a plane, home...
I'm never going to love another, the way that I have loved you,
It's taken me a little time to discover it,
Now I know it's true, but fatal hesitation,
Made me miss the show,

G Gm7 Fmaj7/A Bb - Bb/C
Oh Romeo is standing in the rain,
F Gm7 Fmaj7/A Bb - Bb/C
And I know that I have let her____ slip away,
Dm C Bb F
Fatal hesitation, ah, fatal hesitation...
I saw you again this morning, walking down the beach,
And though you are a thousand miles away,
You were only just out of reach, but when I got up close,
And I saw her face, I knew it couldn't be so, no, no;
Oh Romeo is standing in the rain,
And I, yes I know, I have let her slip away,
Fatal hesitation, fatal hesitation,
Db Eb/Db F/C
I'm going to get on my____ boat and sail away;
Oh Romeo is standing in the rain,
And I, yes I know, I have let her slip away,
Fatal hesitation,
Fatal hesitation,
Fatal hesitation,
Fatal hesitation...
I'm going to read a little Shakespeare,
And get her out of my head,
It doesn't matter any more,
I'm going to miss her just a little bit,
Just a little bit...
