1. You just say the things you want to hear,

           D        A   D                A                        G

    and like a fool I believed everything was clear.

             A                   D                      E

    But now I feel so distant, I don’t know what to say,

             D                           D             E

    the things I thought important are just another day.

             F         C         F                         C

    And you and I are miles and miles apart,

             F                     C         F C                      G - G7

    you got me on the road to one more broken hea….rt.

 

  A                          G

January, February, I don’t understand,

    A                                                 G

why it is you say you’re leaving, then you turn around.

          G                                          Bm                        G

You won’t settle down, you’ve got both feet off the ground,

    one more night, another day, another year.

          A                         D                    E

    It doesn’t seem to matter, ‘cause you don’t seem to care,

        A                         D                         E

    if only there were some way out, a way to anywhere.

                   F         C         F                        C

    ‘Cause you and I are miles and miles apart,

              F                    C         F                C        G - G7

     you got me on the road to one more broken hea…..rt.
