C      Fmaj7         Em7  Dm7
When I opened your letter yesterday
 
C                      Dm7
I could not believe my eyes
 
(similar)
'Cos I've already given all I have to give
And I think it must have slipped your mind
But I remember not so long ago
I gave it all, 
 
     F
it's gone
 
              G
And I gave it all to you
 
        Em
Now I'm living on borrowed time, 
 
Am  G    F#m7-5
but it's mine
Oh, d'you hear me?
 
Fmaj7                 Em7
I cannot believe it's true
 
Dm7            Fmaj7                Em7
Are you really doing the things you do 
 
Dm7 Fmaj7                Em7  Dm7    C
No I cannot believe it's you, really you
 
Oh these people I'm talking to don't understand
They don't seem to realize
They're listening but they're not hearing me
They're being too cruel to be kind
Any kind of feeling that I had is gone
'Cos I gave it all, it's gone
And I gave it all to you
Now I'm living on borrowed time, but it's mine

Oh, d'you hear me?
I cannot believe it's true
Are you really doing the things you do 
No I cannot believe it's you, really you
 
Bb       C           Dm
Over and over I keep on telling myself
Over and over I hope I'm gonna make up
Over and over I know it's really happening
 
            Bb          C      G
And there's nothing that I can say
 
Bb               C
'Cos nothing can change 
 
               Dm
all the things that you've done to me
 
Bb          C       G
Nothing can make me stay

Oh, 'cos you know I cannot believe it's true
Are you really doing the things you do
No I cannot believe it's you, really you
 
Eb                   F/Eb
I know it's a crying shame, 
 
     Ab              Bb
it's all the same to you
It seems all so well laid out 
but I cannot get through
 
C                     F
Never meant it to show
 
           C                               F
It started happening, that's all you know 

Oh, I gave it all to you
Now I'm living on borrowed time, but it's mine

Oh, d'you hear me?
I cannot believe it's true
Are you really doing the things you do
No I cannot believe it's you, really you

Over and over I keep on telling myself
Over and over I Hope I'm gonna make up
But over and over I know it's really happening
And there's nothing that I can say
'Cos nothing can change all the things that you do to me
Nothing can make me stay

'Cos you know I cannot believe it's true
Are you really doing the things you do
No I cannot believe it's you, really you
