Eb 		 Ebsus4         Eb
  Your name froze on the winter air
         Ebsus4        Eb
An empty bench in Soho Square
	  Ebsus4      Eb
Forgotten now I turn away
            Ebsus4       Cm
Just save me for a rainy day
	     Gm	  Cm	           [Fill 1]      Eb
But don't be sorry, I don't want to hear it baby


	     Ebsus4         Eb
My feet froze in the winter chill
           Ebsus4       Eb
I knew I'd probably get ill
          Ebsus4	   Eb	         Ebsus4
But I was praying we could fill an empty bench and still
       Cm Gm    Cm		     [Fill 1]
You're so sorry but I don't want your pity baby


C	           Am
It's all yours now please don't tease
    F		          G
The pigeons shiver in the naked trees
            C		 Am
And I'll do anything but please don't hurt me
     F			G
Just kiss me quick 'cos it's my birthday
      F		      C    		 F		G
And I feel so small I don't know why but no I'm not too old to cry

  An empty bench in Soho Square.
		  Ebsus4	       Cm
If you'd have come you'd have found me there
	      Gm		 Cm		 [Fill 1]
But you never did 'cos you don't care and I'm so sorry baby
Eb	     Ebsus4	    Eb		    Ebsus4	  Eb
I don't mind loneliness too much but when I met you I was touched
	     Ebsus4	     Eb		  Ebsus4	 Cm Gm
And that was good enough for me but do we always have to be sorry
Cm		      [Fill 1]
  Why can't we just be happy baby?

C	           Am		     F		    G
One day you'll be waiting there, no empty bench in Soho Square
	  C		    Am
And we'll dance around like we don't care
    F		     G
And I'll be much too old to cry
	   F		    C			 F       G
And you'll kiss me quick in case I die before my birthday

C	Am	     F		G
	   Before my birthday
C	Am	     F		G
	   Before my birthday

C	           Am		     F		    G
One day you'll be waiting there, no empty bench in Soho Square
   C		    Am		    F		      G
No I don't know the reason why I'll love you till the day I die
    C		      Am
But one day you'll be waiting there
     F		   G
Come summertime in Soho Square
	    C		      Am
And I'll be painting stars up in the sky
  F		 G		      C		Am
Before I get too old to cry before my birthday
  F		   G			 C	   Am		F
I hope I see those pigeons fly before my birthday
   G		     C		  Am		F          G
In Soho Square on my birthday
