1. It’s 5 o'clock this morning and the sun is
on the rise,
G D Em Am D
there's
frosting on the window pane, and sorrow in your eyes.
G D Em C G
The stars are fading quietly, the night is nearly gone,
G D
Em Am D
and
so you turn away from me, and tears begin to come.
Am D
G D Em
It's goodbye again, I'm sorry to
be leaving you,
Am D
- G D Em
goodbye again, ‘cause if you didn't know,
Am D
G D Em
it's goodbye again, and I wish you
could tell me,
Am
D
why do we always fight, when I
have to go ?

2. It seems a shame to leave you now, you lay
so soft and warm
G
D Em Am D
I long to
lay me down again and hold you in my arms.
G D Em - C G
I long to kiss the tears away,
and give you back your smile,
G
D Em Am
D
but
other voices beckon me and for a little while.
+ CHORUS
Bm C G
Em
Have to go see some friends of
mine, and some that I don't know,
Am D G
and
some who aren't familiar with my name.
Bm C G Em
It's something that's inside
of me, it’s not hard to understand,
Am D
it’s
anyone who'll listen to me sing.
G D
Em - C G
3. And if your hours are empty now, who am I to blame
G D Em Am D
Do you think if I were always
here, our love would be same
G D Em - C G
As it is, the time we have, is worth the time alone,
G
D Em Am
D
and
lying by your side, the greatest peace I've ever known.
Am D G D
Em
It's goodbye again, I'm sorry to
be leaving you,
Am D
- G D Em
goodbye again, ‘cause if you didn't know,
Am D G D Em
it's goodbye again, and I wish you
could tell me,
Am D
why do we always fight, when I
have to go ?
