Tom: Bb

Bb                   Eb
Young hearts are the hardest ones to mend
Gm                              F
Too naive to know that love can end
Bb                 Eb
I know what I wish I’d known back then
Gm                              F
To save myself before I let you in

Eb      F        Gm
I’ll be back you said
              Cm
But I’m still waiting
          F
I’m still waiting
Bb
Tell me how the story started
Eb
Change the way it ends
Gm                         F
Make it so I learn to love again
Bb                            Eb
Tell me that old memories are better laid to rest
    Gm                           F
And maybe losing you was for the best
      Eb              F               Gm
But I wonder does she ever cross your mind
      Eb             F               Bb
Do you remember the girl you left behind?

Bb               Eb    
In the end not a single word was said
   Gm                                   F
No last goodbye I’m glad you saved your breath
Bb              Eb
Maybe I was too easily led
Gm                         F
Into the storm I never saw ahead

Eb      F        Gm
I’ll be back you said
              Cm
But I’m still waiting
          F
I’m still waiting
Bb
Tell me how the story started
Eb
Change the way it ends
Gm                         F
Make it so I learn to love again
Bb                            Eb
Tell me that old memories are better laid to rest
    Gm                           F
And maybe losing you was for the best
      Eb              F               Gm
But I wonder does she ever cross your mind
      Eb             F               Bb
Do you remember the girl you left behind?
        
      Eb              F               Gm
But I wonder does she ever cross your mind
      Eb             F               Bb
Do you remember the girl you left behind?
