(11) (b13) (+9) -- Verse 2 (11) (+9) I'm certain I am alone (11) (+9) in harbouring thoughts of our home (11) (+9) it's one of my faults that I can't quell my past (11) (b13) (+9) I ought to have gotten it gone (11) (b13) (+9) I ought to have gotten it... Chorus C#sus (+9) (11) C#sus (+9) Ooh baby I wonder if when you are older some day C#sus (+9) (11) you'll wake up and say "My God I should have told her, C#sus (+9) what would it take? C#sus (+9) (11) But now here I am and the world's gotten colder C#sus (+9) -- (11) (b13) (+9) and she's got the river down which I sold her" Verse 3 (same as Verse 1) So that's today's memory lane with all the pathos and pain another chapter in a book where the chapters are endless and they're always the same a verse and a verse and refrain Repeat Chorus
