This is it    (video)

 

        C   - C7               - F                    C

1. Well,         this is it,       that day is here,

                       G                                 G7                               C

    the day I knew would come when you would leave me, dear.

               C           - C7 - F                            C

    Well, here I sit                while teardrops fall,

                          G                       G7                      C                       C7

    and wonder why I care when you don't care at all (don’t care at all).

 

                     F                                                C

    But I'm a fool that way from a way back when,

                         C           Em       Am                         G     - G7

    a fool who'd take you back if you'd come back again.

      C                 - F                                    C

    But this is it,        you're gone, you're free,

                        G                      G7              C

    you'll find another love, but this is it for me.

2.     Well,       this is it,       that day is here,

                  G                     G7                           C                              C7

 it's no surprise, and yet I can't hold back the tears (hold back the tears).

            - C            C7  - F                   C

    Well,       here I sit       and try to guess,

                           G                                 G7      C               C7

    how such an empty room is so full of loneliness (loneliness).

 

F                                            C

    Well, even the clock has stopped,

                                             - C          - Em                 Am

    somehow I guess it knew        that          time's run out for me.

          G                              - G7

    It's over, it's all through.

           - C               - C7 - F                                   C

    Yes,      this is it               you're gone, you're free,

                        G                     G7             C

    you'll find another love but this is it for me.    +  C - F - G - C
