G - Em7-9 - D

CHORUS:
         G            Em7             C       D
Just the sweet little myst'ry, That's in your heart,
         G            Em7               D Dsus4 D
oh, that sweet little myst'ry, Makes me try,
        G            Em7             C       D
And the sweet little myst'ry, That's in your heart,
          G            Em7               D Dsus4 D
it's that sweet little myst'ry, Makes me cry.

VERSE 1:
G                           Em7
Friends will tell me that I look so sad,
C                         D
They don't need to ask me why,
G                           Em7
They know the reason that I feel so bad,
C                        D
Since the night you said 'Goodbye'.

MIDDLE 8:
Am7
It's not the letters, that you just don't write,
Em7-9
It's not the arms of some new friend,
Am7
It's not the crying, in the dead of night,
Em7-9                          D
That keeps me hanging on, just waiting for the end.

CHORUS

VERSE 2:
I watch the street, I watch the radio,
I don't need to turn it on,
Another friends comes by to say 'Hello',
Another weekend's almost gone.

MIDDLE 8

CHORUS

VERSE 3:
Time is flying fast, and I don't care,
To spend another night alone,
I want to see you, but I don't know where,
'Til then I'm walking on my own.

MIDDLE 8

CHORUS

CODA:
Am7
Sweet mystery, sweet sweet mystery,
Em7-9
Sweet mystery, sweet mystery, sweet mystery,
Am7
Sweet mystery, sweet mystery,
Em7-9
It's your sweet little mystery...
