   He comes on over, 
                                  B E 
   wants to drown his sorrows on the, 

   two-seat sofa 

   and some whiskey in a bottle. 
Dbm 
   Broken tears with 
       A                          E 
   the weight of the world on his shoulders. 

 E 
   Oh my god Sam, 

   what's happened to your senses? 

   Why she's just left with his 2-year-old daughter. 
      Dbm                        A 
   To live to Acapulco with some idiot 
                    B 
   she met a couple months ago. 


   I wish I could tell you that... 
F#m             B 
   If it was me I would be a good wife. 
   E 
   I would never doubt you, 
   Dbm 
   ours would be a good life. 
   F#m         B   
   We could be better than so many. 
   E 
   I would never stress you 
         A                     B 
   about bringing home the plenty. 

 E 
   For all these things another life we'll 
           Dbm 
   have to wait. 

   Our life could be perfect if only God 
              F#m 
   had wanted it. 

   But you'll never know it. 

   We'll get old. 
   E 
   Let's not talk about it, 
             B 
   rest your head upon my shoulder. 

 E

   You'll never know the good life 

   E 
   Somebody once told me that 

   there are watchers and 
   
   there are do'ers in this world. 

   Guess I'm a watcher, 

   not by choice, 
                        Dbm 
   it's just what I was told. 

   We're just two friends, 
 A                      B 
   it's not a risky situation. 


   I wish I could tell you that...

   (I'm so tired to conceal) 
                            E 
   now that life's a little colder. 
                         Dbm
