Verse One
Bm D E
Came in from a rainy Thursday on the avenue

Thought I heard you talking softly

I turned on the lights, the TV and the radio

Still I can't escape the ghost of you.

I will learn to survive.

Verse two
Bm D E
Passion or coincidence once prompted you to say
Bm D E
Pride will tear us both apart
Bm
Well now pride's gone out the window,
D E
cross the rooftops, run away

Left me in the vacuum of my heart.
Bm
What is happening to me?

Crazy some'll say

Where is my friend when I need you most? Gone away
