G         Em            C     D  Riff#1
Before I let you down again
G              Em        C          D  Riff#1
I just want to see you in your right
G                Em           C      D       Riff#1
I wouldn't have taken everything I loaned you
G         Em             C        D   Riff #2
I only thought you could understand

G         Em             C             D
They say every man goes blind in his heart
G          Em        C                 D
They say everybody steals somebody's heart away
      G        Em             C      D
And I've got nothing more to say about it
G        Em              C    D Riff #2
Nothing more than you and me

CHORUS:

C              G     D          G
Send me a flower of your December
C              G    D              G
Save me your dream of your candy wine
C            G             D      G
I've got just one thing I can't give you
C     G                  D  Riff #2
Just one more thing of mine

G  Em  C  D  G  Em  C  D  G  Em  C  D  G  Em  C  D Riff#2 G

G         Em              C            D
They say every man goes blind in his heart
           Em         C              D
They say everybody steals somebody's heart away
G               Em               C           D
And I've been wondering why you let me down
G              Em          C              D
And I've been taking it all for granted

G  Em  C  D  G  Em  C  D  G  Em  C  D  G  Em  C  D Riff#2 Riff#2 G
